Sophia: Creating a Symmetrical Shape: Lesson 1

Scholars learn how to determine the area of compound shapes by finding the areas of the basic shapes that make it up. Pupils find the areas by adding areas together or subtracting them.

Unfortunately for young mathematicians, the world isn't made entirely of parallelograms, triangles, and trapezoids. After first learning the area formulas for these common shapes, students apply this new knowledge to...

Just one step is all you need to find success in solving equations. The 27th installment in a series of 36 teaches how to solve one-step equations involving addition and subtraction. Tape diagrams help future mathematicians in this task.

Discover one more step to being able to solve any one-step equation. Scholars continue their work with one-step equations in the 28th installment of a 36-part module. Tape diagrams and algebraic processes introduce how to solve one-step...

Students will learn how to convert from a fraction with an exponent in the denominator to a whole number with a negative exponent. This lesson [3:08] is 1 of 18 in the series titled "Converting to Negative Exponents."

Students will learn how to convert from a fraction with an exponent in the denominator to a whole number with a negative exponent. This lesson [1:11] is 2 of 18 in the series titled "Converting to Negative Exponents."

Children with special needs participate in several activities to reinforce shape and color recognition. They sign the word leaf, sing a song about leaves, and bounce leaves around on a parachute. They then help the instructor name...

In this lesson, students are shown how to test a general statement to see if it might be factual. It is 1 of 10 in the series titled "Testing a Generalization." [3:33]

This lesson explains how to convert between units of measurement in the metric system by moving the decimal. It is 1 of 5 in the series titled "Relating Metric System Measures."

Converting from a longer number to exponential notation is covered in this lesson. [3:16] It is 1 of 13 in the series titled "Converting to Exponential Notation."
