Give or Take a Few
Young mathematicians extend their knowledge of rational numbers on a number line to graph inequalities by first using number cards to compare rational numbers. They finish by using similar reasoning to graph inequalities on a number line.
Texas Instruments
Serious Series
High schoolers are introduced to infinite series, geometric and telescoping series as well as the relationship between the sequence of partial sums of a series and its sum. They apply symbolic capacity of their calculator and calculus to...

Inductive and Deductive Reasoning
Introduce pupils to the two types of reasoning, inductive and deductive. Classmates work in pairs or small groups to learn the difference between the two and apply these reasonings to develop valid conclusions.
Curated OER
Mode, Median, and Mean
Students define mode, median and mean, and perform mathematical operations to determine these 3 terms. In this statistics/math activity, students practice memory strategies to help distinguish between mode, median, and mean. Students...
