Curated OER
Factoring Polynomials having common factors
Ninth graders demonstrate that factoring polynomials having common factors is the inverse process of multiplying a polynomial by a monomial. students find the greatest common factor.
Curated OER
Sloping and Intersecting a Linear Function
Young scholars examine and discuss typical linear equations, and the difference between a linear and nonlinear equation. They observe examples of linear equations and complete a worksheet.
Curated OER
Family Vacation
Learners use math to plan a trip by houseboat down the Mississippi River. They research and obtain information on the Mississippi River and its surroundings and use multiple graphs to represent their data.
Curated OER
Graphs and Functions
Students are introduced to plotting functions on the Cartesian coordinate plane seen several categories of functions, including lines and parabolas
Curated OER
The Demise of Copper's Trading Power
Eighth graders evaluate statistical equations. They examine data from archaeologists at Jamestown, complete statistical equations using the sets of data, and graph the results.
Curated OER
Code Breakers
Students collect data and make a frequency table, change ratios into percents, and analyze data to make predictions.
Curated OER
Square and Triangular Numbers
Students use equations to represent practical situations. They solve linear equations and quadratic equations. The use of problem solving strategies is also developed.
Curated OER
Inching Our Way Into The Metric System
Learners investigate the Metric System. They discuss the history of the Metric System, convert various units of measurement into the Metric System, and solve problems on a spreadsheet.
Curated OER
Bears
Students complete a variety of bear-related activities. They sort and graph teddy bears, distinguish between real and non-real bears and research bear life cycles and habitats.
Curated OER
Graphing With RXTE
Young scholars use data from the Rossi X-ray Tiiming Explorer (RXTE) satellite to analyze and graph.
