Pupils use the provided census data to guess the future height of a child. They organize and plot the data, solve for the line of best fit, and determine the likely height and range for a specific age. 

Shuffle the resource into your instructional activity repertoire. Scholars use randomly-generated iPod Shuffle playlists to develop ideas about randomness. They use a new set of playlists to confirm their ideas, and then decide whether...

Log the resource on logarithms for future use. Learners review and explore properties of logarithms and solve base 10 exponential equations in the 12th installment of a 35-part module. An emphasis on theoretical definitions and...

Explore the mathematical relationship between a solvent and solute. Learners use technology to measure the cooling patterns of a solvent with varying concentrations of solute. Through an analysis of the data, pupils realize that the...

For this improper integral worksheet, students determine the convergence or divergence of functions. They explore the sequence in the series. This one-page worksheet contains six multi-step problems.

Science equipment can be handy for math class, too. Scholars learn to solve one- and two-step linear equations by using the concept of a balance. They solve real-world problems in a variety of contexts by writing and solving linear...

In this sequence worksheet, pupils find the limits of given sequences and prove theorems. This one-page worksheet contains four multi-step problems.

Students examine the four quadrants of Cartesian coordinate plane. They play maze games and coordinate games to discover how to read and plot points on the plane. Students plot points on the coordinate plane and examine the ratio of...

Students collect live buoy data about water temperatures in the Gulf of Mexico from the Internet and work individually to organize their data and create a line graph using Excel Spreadsheet. Students analyze their data and examine any...

Fifth graders investigate the concept of a function in relationship to how it is used. The concept is essential for the future study of Algebra. They apply the use of patterns with its relationship to functions.

Learners investigate the concept of a linear function. They use geoboards to find the interior angle sums. The sum of the angles is found to equal 180 degrees. Students also investigate quadrilaterals.

In this algebra worksheet, students use the given values for the functions to create a pattern of solving an equation that is extended into a word problem.

Students explore polynomial functions.  In this Algebra II lesson, students explore graphs of polynomial functions as classify the functions as linear, quadratic, cubic, or quartic.  Students determine the regression equation...

Students identify patterns in equations. In this algebra instructional activity, students write equations of problems with recurring patterns. They relate and model real life situation using functions.

Young scholars explain the differences between linear (arithmetic) and exponential (geometric) growth. They use worksheets imbedded in this lesson to help them make predicitions and graph data points.

First graders explore the existence of patterns in everyday items. In this science and math integrated lesson, 1st graders match leaves with a name word card and organize them into four patterns. This lesson includes a reading of And the...

Students complete T charts and manipulate numbers using graphs and charts. In this math graphs and charts lesson plan, students review the concepts of pattern and function. Students then complete practice pages where they manipulate...

Eighth graders explore sequences. They discuss the difference between an arithmetic sequence and a geometric pattern. Students participate in workstation activities where they determine arithmetic or geometric patterns and predict the...

Second graders use blocks to show the addition and subtraction of fractions with common denominators. They identify the steps in these functions and complete a worksheet.

Students find the solutions of polynomials through graphing. In this algebra lesson, students identify the maximum and minimum of each polynomial function. They ind the vertex, domain and range of a parabola.

Students identify the slope of a line and use it to solve real life problems. In this algebra lesson, students write linear equations in slope intercept form and make a correlation to its relation to the real world. They use the slope an...

Groups explore sets of 10 items in two varieties (i.e. 3 white buttons and 7 black ones, or 5 bears and 5 bunnies). They brainstorm about their objects, write math sentences to represent what they have, and report their discoveries...

First graders create number sentences.  In this math lesson, 1st graders use M&M's to make number sentences.  Students create charts using the color of the M&M's as data.
