Investigating the large numbers of science is the task in a simple but deep activity. Given a one-sentence problem set-up and some basic assumptions, the class sets off on an open-ended investigation that really gives some...

It's probably a good idea to use the unit. Young mathematicians learn about conditional probability using Venn diagrams, tree diagrams, and two-way tables. They also take into consideration independence and the addition rules.

The probability is high learning will occur! A well-designed unit introduces learners to the concepts of independent, dependent, and mutually exclusive events. Using Venn diagrams, the lessons ask learners to analyze many different...

Assess scholars' knowledge with a 22-page assessment that covers place value, patterns, probability, estimation, measurement, geometric figures; and their ability to add, subtract, multiply and divide proficiently. 

Eighth graders play a game to solve problems. In this exponents and scientific notations lesson, 8th graders play a game in small groups to move colored disks from location A to location C. Students identify recursive patterns to solve...

Corresponding parts, congruent parts, congruent corresponding parts—what does it all mean? The resource challenges pupils to identify corresponding parts for pairs of figures. It uses examples of figures that undergo rigid...

This short probability question may look simple at first, but it is actually quite complex! Learners must understand independent events in context and must take into account several different scenarios. Use as an individual assignment...

Is there more to college algebra than this? Even though the eBook is designed for a college algebra course, there are several topics that align to Algebra II or Pre-calculus courses. Topics begin with linear equation and inequalities,...

Have scholars show what they know with a 20-page assessment aligned to the California State Standards. The test covers concepts such as large and whole numbers, all four mathematical operations, fractions, decimals, geometric figures,...

In this linear equations worksheet, 8th graders solve 10 different problems that include various types of linear equations. First, they write the distance between Venus and the Sun in scientific notation. Then, students determine the...

Having a good working knowledge of math vocabulary is so important for learners as they progress through different levels of mathematical learning. Here is 125 pages worth of wonderfully constructed vocabulary and concept review cards....

What happens when your teachers get tired of grading tests and want to use games of chance to determine your grade? How would you decide which game they should play? Learn how to use expected value and standard notation to compare two...

Pupils analyze a pattern of conference tables to determine the number of tables needed and the number of people that can be seated for a given size. Individuals develop general formulas for the two growing number patterns and...

Students define Pascal's triangle and special notations used to represent nth elements. In this geometry lesson plan, students solve problems using permutations and combinations. They compare the formula for permutation to that of...

Working independently or in teams, your class practices connecting graphs, formulas and words. This lesson includes a guided discussion about distance vs. time graphs and looking at how velocity changes over time.  

Students investigate modular arithmetic and how to use it to solve real world problems. In this modular arithmetic lesson, students use computers to work on modular arithmetic after a teacher guided lesson. They complete guided practice...

Students analyze linear functions. In this algebra instructional activity, students create a linear model to relate coordinate pairs. They evaluate and solve equations.

Students note the similarities between decimals, fractions and percentages. They practice converting numbers between these types. They participate in an activity as well.

Young scholars recognize methods used to define the mole. After converting various quantities to the mole, students provide a context for understanding the usefulness of scientific notation and the mole.

Use this lesson, practice exercise, and teacher resource when planning instruction on sets and interval notation. Offers simple definitions and examples, an eleven-question online quiz, and a .pdf worksheet for students to complete while...

This page discusses sets and set theory in mathematics and probability, and it discusses the notation and properties of sets.

Checks understanding of the union, complement, and intersection of sets. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Given a set, learn how to calculate its number of permutations.

This page gives a brief discussion of the intersection of sets in mathematics and probability.
