Review operations related to rational numbers and integers using the include PowerPoint presentation, "Interesting Integers." Young mathematicians classify rational numbers as being natural, whole, or integers and read an article about...

Prime and composite numbers are the focus of this mathematics lesson. In it, learners practice techniques for identifying these two types of numbers. They utilize the Inspiration program to complete a task that is clearly explained, and...

Students discuss that the conservatin of energy states that the energy imput must equal the energy output. They then figure out how can a machine help you to perform task otherwise considered impossible? Students discuss the six simple...

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.

Students convert volcano elevation from feet to meters.

Don't harbor any negative feelings toward negative numbers. Scholars learn about different classifications of rational numbers, including negative integers. They also develop definitions of the opposite and the absolute value of a...

Middle schoolers add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers. They find the square and the cube of numbers. They create a game incorporating computation on rational numbers. Everyone works together to write and evaluate...

Upper elementary and middle schoolers work with the concept of probability. They are introduced to the concept of chaos. Learners graph and analyze using a line plot, work with mean, and are introduced to the concept of variance.

For this decimal place value chart worksheet, learners work independently to fill in the blanks on the chart so that the numbers equal out correctly and the missing words are stated correctly.

Students determine the most equitable way to share space and cost between three schools for a fictional science fair. Given a diagram, a word problem, and a data set, students analyze and explain the best way for all schools to share...

Students collect data to create different types of graphs-line, pie, and bar graphs. They use StarOffice 6.0 to create graphs.

Using a simple technique, learners practice identifying integers on a number line. As numbers, both positive and negative, are pointed to, they name them. This could be part of anticipatory set before a lesson on integers.

A unique approach to reviewing number lines and how to locate different values on them, this worksheet poses several questions that require written answers rather than calculations. You could use this as a note-taking guide when teaching...

Student are assigned one of the sections on whole numbers. After reviewing the content, they teach their assigned sections to other class mates. They publish their findings on a PowerPoint slide show to use when they teach their section.

Need more detail in showing your class how to solve two-step equations and proportions? This lesson plan outlines the steps young mathematicians need to solve simple equations and check their results. 

Help your sixth graders reach their Common Core math standards by providing them with a checklist of "I can" statements for each standard. As each concept is covered, kids can check it off, as long as they can do what it states. 

This resource should be called "All About Lines, and Then Some!". Packed full of all the key components of linear functions, learners review how to set up different equations, find intercepts, and graph. All the main topics are included...

Extend young mathematicians' understanding of area with a geometry lesson on trapezoids. Building on their prior knowledge of rectangles and triangles, students learn how to calculate the area of trapezoids and other...

In this third of a twelve-part series, the focus moves from using matrices to solving systems of equations with substitution and elimination, including more than two dimensions and variables in equations, and analyzing statistical data....

Learners observe and discuss cloud cover. They identify percent of cloud cover, calculate cloud cover by fraction and convert to a percent, and compare their models with the current real sky cloud cover.

Utilize the lesson on utilization. The second installment of a nine-part technology/engineering series teaches scholars about the flow of a balanced assembly line and the definition of utilization. Videos, activities, and simulations...

Students investigate the concepts that are related to finance and how it is used in the world. They take part in activities that are focused around the use of a spreadsheet while using a T-chart to simulate a ledger of credits and debits.
