Tell the story of the math. Given a graph of a linear system, learners write a story that models the graph before crafting the corresponding functions. Graphs intersect at an estimated point, allowing for different variations in the...

Help remove some of the confusion surrounding the addition and subtraction of radical numbers with this set skills practice problems. Taken straight from the pages of a math text book, this resource provides learners with...

Looking for a way to challenge the problem-solving abilities of your young mathematicians? Then look no further. This collect of newsletter worksheets engages learners with a variety of interesting word problems that cover topics ranging...

Which graph belongs to which summary statistics? Class members build upon their knowledge of data displays and numerical summaries to connect the two. Pupils make connections between different graphical displays of the same data in...

Your algebra learners explore linear functions concretely using tables of values in a collaborative task. The idea that linear function values change by equal differences over equal intervals, is emphasized. The slope and...

A plethora of activities make up a cross curricular choice page filled with math games—relay races, dice, and crossword puzzles—a survey challenge equipped with data organization, graphing, a quicksand recipe, Hula-Hoop activity to...

Develop a strategy for finding the area and perimeter of irregular figures. Building on an understanding of finding area and perimeter of rectangles and triangles, learners apply the same concepts to composite figures. After...

How much work does it take to lift a bucket? An interactive presents a problem of lifting a bucket from the ground to the top of a building. Using their knowledge about work and integrals, pupils calculate the amount of work required to...

In this same yet different worksheet, students use a large grid to draw 2 different shapes with an area of 12 square units. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Combines mathematical measurement with gardening skills. Third graders hunt for worms in the garden and try to find the longest one. They also measure and weigh vegetables that they harvest from the garden, measure rainfall amounts,...

What does it mean for something to grow exponentially, and how does that compare to linear growth? This activity tries to help learners gain an understanding of these concepts while modeling real-world problems. Linear and exponential...

Registration. Prerequisite. Admission. Elective. With Alise Lamoreaux's informative eBook, A Different Road to College, prospective and current non-traditional college enrollees explore the language of college. They also learn...

Explore a geometric sequence model through a simulation. Learners change the starting drop height of a ball and watch how the heights of following bounces change. They consider the ratio of the consecutive bounces as they analyze...

In this same or different worksheet, learners circle the picture in a row that is the same as the first one given, 5 rows of pictures total. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this classifying worksheet, students circle the picture of an animal in each of 6 rows that matches the animal in the box at the beginning of each row. They see realistic clip art pictures of dogs, fish, moths, horses, and rabbits.

Get your classes moving and practicing sequences at the same time! Learners move about the room solving problems and finding their solutions. Problems include both recursive and explicit formulas and both geometric and arithmetic sequences.

Help learners understand the concept of unit rate as it is applied to buying beans at a grocery store. The objective is to determine the unit rate in two ways, and then apply each ratio to an additional problem. The attached commentary...

Trace the links between a variety of math concepts in this far-reaching unit. Ideas that seem very different on the outset (like the distance formula and rigid transformations) come together in very natural and logical ways. This...

Can you follow a composition of transformations, or better yet construct them? Young mathematicians analyze the composition of dilations, examining both the scale factor and centers of dilations. They discover relationships for both...

The 11th activity in the series of 22 is similar to the preceding activity, but requires scholars to compare distributions using the mean and mean absolute deviation. Pupils use the information to make a determination on which data set...

Young scholars recognize things that are the same and things that are different. They use shape, size, numbers and color, for recognition. They make fish with different shapes/colors on them and 'fish' for the kind of fish that displays...

Twelve math lessons take kindergartners through the process of number sense and counting. The skills range from counting to ten, filling out ten frames, indicating ordinal position of an object, and counting by fives and tens to one...

Inscribed angles are central to the instructional activity. Young mathematicians build upon concepts learned in the previous instructional activity and formalize the Inscribed Angle Theorem relating inscribed and central angles. The...
