Balanced Assessment
Smaller, Larger, In-Between
Build a solid understanding of rational number relationships by asking class members to use various skills to order decimals, fractions, and numeric power expressions. Using the resource, they find that the fractions do not have an...
Balanced Assessment
Transformation II
Develop a solid understanding of the manipulation of expressions to produce equivalent expressions. Given an expression, pupils rearrange it to create a new one. Their new functions must match the structure of the model expressions.
Shodor Education Foundation
Possible or Not?
What does the graph mean? Pupils view 10 graphs and determine whether they are possible based on their contexts. The contexts are distance versus time and profit versus time.

Fun on the Farm
Let imaginations run wild as participants design animal pens. A performance task challenges young mathematicians to determine the perimeter or a missing side length of different animal pens. They then design pens that meet given...
Curated OER
Math: Tangents
Students discover how to recognize tangents and how to use their properties. They investigate and use the properties of angles, arcs, chords, tangents, and secants. Students use two tangents and the properties of similar triangles to...
Curated OER
Math: A Geometric Neighborhood
Young scholars, as a final project, draw a picture of their ideal neighborhood on a sunny day. In addition to the sun, their drawings include homes, trees, streets, and selected objects. Each object in their drawing has a written...
Curated OER
Pattern Search
Third graders review the commutative and associative property in mathematics. Using a worksheet, they work together to identify the patterns between the 32 triangles. To end the lesson, they create their own array and exchange it with...
Curated OER
The Commutative Cookie
Third graders investigate the commutative properties of multiplication and focus upon the setting of cubes in the correct patterns to solve problems. They differentiate between numbers that have multiple factors and prime numbers....
Curated OER
Indices and Standard Form
In this algebra activity, students solve exponential and problems using exponential properties. There are 17 questions, with an answer key.

Exploring the Forces of Tension
Let the resource stretch the minds of your young scientists with a lesson plan about tensile strength and stiffness of materials. Groups consider how easily materials stretch and relate this property to engineering design.
Curated OER
Properties of Lines - Parallel and Perpendicular
Sixth graders identify parallel and perpendicular lines in the alphabet. In this line properties lesson, 6th graders use the letters of the alphabet to show parallel and perpendicular lines. Students open a Geogrid Mat on the computer...

Properties Everywhere
Students examine and sort objects by specific attributes and apply prior knowledge. In this properties everywhere instructional activity, students work in groups to arrange objects in categories then discuss various sorting options while...
Curated OER
Traditional American Indian Lodges
Learners explore the mathematical properties of traditional American Indian lodges. They examine the effect of increasing sides of a polygon, calculate the surface area of prisms and cylinders, and construct a classroom size pyramid...
Curated OER
Calculation the Cricumference of Earth using "Google Earth"
Eighth graders investigate properties of circles. In this eight grade mathematics activity, 8th graders apply proportional reasoning to data gathered with “Google Earth” to calculate equatorial and polar circumference of the...
Curated OER
Magnetism and Electricity
Students demonstrate a comprehension of the properties, position, and motion of objects and materials, and of light, heat, electricity, and magnetism. They use materials to assemble an electric circuit and test materials, including...
Curated OER
Be a Structural Engineer!
Students investigate how to design and build items with a focus on structural strength as an engineer would. They complete a truss-building project as a final assessment.
Curated OER
Factor Game (Number Theory)
Students use a Factor Board game to identify the properties of prime, composite, abundant, deficient and perfect numbers. The game is comprised of the numbers from 1 to 30 placed in a 5 by 6 grid. Pupils figure out they can score more...
Curated OER
Exploring Quadratic Equations
Eleventh graders explore quadratic equations. In this Algebra II lesson, 11th graders use Geometer’s Sketchpad to explore the properties of quadratics and the connections with polynomials and linear equations. The lesson is...
Curated OER
Candy Land
In this activity students pretend that they have been hired by a candy manufacturer to design a box for a new product they are beginning to market. The manufacturer has pre-determined the volume of the candy box. It is the students' job...
Curated OER
Geometry in the Real World
Eighth graders complete a unit of lessons on basic geometry concepts. They participate in a variety of activities, culminating in a project that involves publishing a booklet or a poster that presents the major geometry concepts from the...
