Learners construct the Sierpinski Triangle using Cabri Jr. They use a step-by-step guide to construct the Sierpinski Triangle on their graphing calculator and then discuss the formula for constructing a nth stage Sierpinski Triangle.

In this mental math worksheet, students use a number line to count backwards and forwards, add doubles, add and subtract one, and add one-digit numbers. Students solve thirty problems.

Learners explore the concept of exponential growth.  In this exponential growth lesson, students manipulate power models with base 2.  Learners discuss what would happen if you doubled a penny over the course of 20 days. ...

High schoolers explore the concept of circles as they construct a circle using a program such as Cabri Jr. Learners construct a chord and a diameter that are perpendicular, then measure the bisected chord and notice that both sides of...

Young scholars make mathematical argument using the concept of Limit. In this algebra activity, student calculate the instantaneous rate of change from the linear graph. They use a TI-calculator to create a visual of the graphs.

Students find the slope using a slope formula. In this algebra worksheet, students use a pair of coordinate to identify the slope and y intercept. There are 7 questions.

Using a TI Navigator to drag quadrilaterals around to create different shapes, students learn how to draw midpoints in their quadrilaterals. In this geometry lesson, students solve problems using the properties of quadrilaterals. 

In this Thanksgiving themed math worksheet, students calculate the answers to four word problems and then explain how they reached each answer.

Young scholars explore binomial multiplication. They use a TI-nspire handheld to investigate the relationship between the binomial multiplication problem and the resulting trinomial. 

In this counting instructional activity, students complete 22 fill in the blank problems where they are given a starting number and count by 1's, 2's, and 10's. Next. students answer 12 fill in the blank addition or subtraction problems...

In this broken keys activity, students pretend to show the number on a calculator if some of the keys are broken. For example, if the 1 and 2 are broken they show 12 by add 5 and 7. Students complete 8 problems.

First graders watch a demonstration by their teacher to see how to use a calculator. They identify the numbers being used and input them into the calculator. On a worksheet, they record the answer and use coins to show the total.

Students explore the concept of trig identities. In this trig identity lesson, students use Mathematica to graph trig identities. Students see the trig identities graphically and enforce the notion that two trig functions can be equivalent.

Burgers and salads and sodas, oh my! Scholars use a menu to investigate the Fundamental Counting Principle. They create tree diagrams to illustrate the number of possible choices for each given scenario.

Create trigonometric functions from circles. The first lesson of the module begins by finding coordinates along a circular path created by a Ferris Wheel. As the lessons progress, pupils graph trigonometric functions and relate them to...

It used watt amount of energy? This resource investigates the power usage of small household appliances. Using a watt meter, groups measure the actual wattage used by an appliance and then calculate the energy used daily. 

Examine the power of technology while modeling with polynomial functions. Using the website wolfram alpha, learners develop a polynomial function to model the shape of a riverbed. Ultimately, they determine the flow rate through the river.

Boost math skills and inspire scholars to show what they know with a six-page independent practice that focuses on proportional relationships and percents. 

Do homework grades really determine test scores? Learn whether lines of best fit, correlation coefficients, and residuals can be used to determine test scores when given homework grades. (It would certainly save teachers time in grading...

Use mathematics to help plan a field trip. Scholars use the results of a survey to determine where a class should go on a field trip. They use provided data about entrance fees and mileage to calculate the cost per person of such a...

Correlate education with unemployment rates. Individuals compare state and regional unemployment rates with education levels by calculating the correlation coefficient and analyzing scatter plots. Pupils begin by looking at regional data...

Using a game format, learners engage in an activity called Deal or No Deal. Taking real life scenarios involving items for sale, such as cereal boxes three for $5.00, they determine whether an example is a deal or not. This lesson...

The class gets to practice being a mathematician in ancient Greece, performing geometric application problems in the way of Eratosthenes. After following the steps of the great mathematicians, they then compare the (surprisingly...

How many great, great grandchildren can one have? Scholars estimate the number of descendants a woman can have after 110 years. They use information about the average number of children per family and life expectancy to make this estimate.
