Predict the year that college costs will double in your state using linear modeling. The first part of this two-part project based learning activity asks young mathematicians to use data from the College Board. They graph the data,...

What would your dream house look like? A cottage? A medieval castle? High schoolers enrolled in Algebra design the perfect house while using slopes to write equations for various aspects of the project.

Middle schoolers draw cross sections of given contour maps. In this math activity, students interpret the different symbols used in the map. They determine slope and steepness through direct measurement.

Students identify the slope of an equation using various methods. In this algebra lesson, students graph linear equations and calculate the slopes using the x and y intercept to solve the equations and graph the lines. They use the slope...

Students investigate and solve linear equations using slopes. In this algebra lesson, students graph lines using the slope and y intercept. They also find the slope by rewriting their equation in to slope-intercept form from standard form.

High schoolers measure the flight of a gilder. In this fight of angles lesson, students explore the flight of a glider and measure the distance flown. They collect statistical data of the flights and determine the slope of each flight. ...

Mixing math and art is done in this lesson by applying graphing knowledge to create a unique piece of art. This lesson varies acording to the graphing knowledge of the artist. First, learners identify and review various types of graphing...

Students define slope, and practice finding the slope of lines through given points. They determine the angle of inclination. Students find the relationship between the slope and the tangent of the lines. Students determine special...
