Students use satellite tracking software to monitor different satellites. They predict and graph the motion of the space station. They create a 3-D display of its path and share it with the class.

Students discuss why day and night occur after visualizing a teacher-led demonstration.

An online math game where students match unit rates in different forms.

For this lesson, 7th graders will use ratios, rates, and unit rates to solve problems.

In this mini lesson, students will learn about rate, what is rate, the unit rate calculator, the ratio definition, and unit rate examples. Practice questions test understanding.

Production scheduler Jessi Felde explains how she uses math in her work in this video from KAET. In the accompanying classroom activity, students watch the video and then complete an activity involving one aspects of math that Ms. Felde...

Learners assess their mathematics skills by answering these randomly generated multiple choice questions. Topics included are simplifying ratios, solving ratios, and rates.

This activity investigates the importance of accurate measurement in competitive sport, looking at examples from athletics and swimming. It is aimed at secondary maths students (grades 8, 9, and 10).

Dr. Math helps a student see the connection between fractions and ratios using the names of Flintstone characters. A clever approach that requires an understanding of basic algebra concepts.

In these KQED Lowdown infographics, explore how adult obesity rates in the United States, as measured by body mass index (BMI), have dramatically changed in the past half-century. A circular graph and a pictograph depict data by decade,...

In this lesson on ratios, 7th graders explore how ratios can be used to demonstrate rates by exploring proportional relationships.

Practice interpreting the constant of proportionality in graphs.

In this lesson students will explore rates. They will use the concept of rates to compute and compare fuel economy. This lesson plan was created as a result of the Girls Engaged in Math and Science, GEMS Project funded by the Malone...

This Math Page tutorial explains how percents are ratios and then features a practice exercise.

In this activity, 7th graders will learn how to identify proportional relationships from tables, graphs, and equations. They will also learn how to identify the unit rate and write an equation to represent proportional relationships.

Students will create a scatter plot for the data in the USA TODAY Snapshot, "Cropland value grows," and identify the independent and dependent variables for the data. The students will find the rate of change for the data and label this...

Students use unit rates to answer two questions in this real-world math performance task.

Explore the concepts of rate, distance, and speed in this interactive lesson. Discover how to use formulas to solve word problems and calculate salaries. A concise lesson with excellent examples, connections to real world experiences,...

In this exercise, students solve word problems that involve using different units. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to get hints and try questions repeatedly.

SAT Math questions fall into different categories; one of these domains is Problem Solving and Data Analysis. These questions might ask you to create an appropriate equation from a word problem, convert units, or understand the meaning...

Given a function that models an exponential situation, rewrite the function in order to find its change for a different time unit. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or...
