Not all functions are created equal. Pupils apply regression analysis using polynomial, exponential, and logarithmic functions to investigate the relationship between variables and to decide which function would be best to model the...

There's no parallel to a great resource. Scholars take part in three lessons in which they investigate parallel lines in real-world situations. They search for and take pictures of parallel lines in and around the school, develop artwork...

Cook up a nice new kitchen. Future designers apply quadrilaterals to design a new kitchen floor. They create a tessellation and determine the area of the pattern. As an added component and real-world application, they must stick to a...

High schoolers engage in a lesson plan that is about finding the differentials of an equation. They practice computing the differential and apply them to obtaining the approximations for cube roots. The lesson plan includes examples for...

Young scholars implicitly differentiate functions .  In this implicitly differentiating functions lesson, students take the derivative of functions that cannot be solved for a variable.  Young scholars find the derivative of an...

Students explore comparing and ordering volume of containers. They use the context of Goldilocks and the Three Bears to compare the volume of various containers by packing or pouring.

Third graders develop their algebraic thinking by recognizing a variety of patterns using concrete objects, numbers, tables, and pictures. In this George and Sam Save for a present lesson plan, 3rd graders communicate their mathematical...

Twelfth graders review the rules for derivatives and use them to solve problems. In this calculus lesson, 12th graders apply the power rules for derivatives correctly to solve equations. This assignment contains lots of examples of...

In this calculus worksheet, students solve for the limit using special functions such as e and trig. They discuss the special rules differentiating these functions when it comes to taking the limit as x approaches zero.

In this variable and expression learning exercise, students differentiate between variables and expressions. They write algebraic expressions using exponents and interpret algebraic expressions into words. This one-page learning exercise...

Sometimes, we forget how much there is to learn for a preschooler. This simple worksheet allows them to practice differentiating animals that are the same, from animals that are different. They must circle the animal that doesn't belong...

Consumers explore scientific notation as it relates to the real world. For this algebra lesson, mathematicians convert Gigabytes in to scientific notation to see if they are being cheated. They differentiate between base ten and base of...

Third graders construct numbers to the millions place. In this 30-page place value lesson, learners create numbers and evaluate the place value of digits. They explore standard and expanded form of numbers. An incredible resource!

Redecorate a classroom on a budget. Middle schoolers rebuild a classroom after a disaster. They conduct Internet research to determine construction supplies needed and the most cost effective way to reach the predetermined results. They...

Here is a fantastic lesson counting coins, interpreting graphs, and the concept of "greater than" and "less than." Young mathematicians utilize worksheets embedded in the plan in order to practice these concepts. The worksheets are...

Some resources are just wonderful for stimulating creative thinking and concept understanding. Children are encouraged to explore odd and even numbers through a variety of creative activities. They group items, read a story, make an...

Learners explore lists and determine the derivative for that list. They use regressions to discover equations. 

Explore rational numbers with the young mathematicians in your class. They will investigate decimals, fractions, and percents before ordering and comparing rational numbers. This multi-day unit includes differentiation activities and...

In this optimization worksheet, students solve 20 short answer word problems. Students read, sketch, define variables, write equations, differentiate their equations, and find the maximum or minimum of each word problem.

In this math worksheet, learners answer 7 questions having to do with continuous functions, the Squeeze Theorem, and the Product Rule for differentiation.

In this math worksheet, students are given 7 problems in which they review properties of logs and solve, differentiate formulae, find derivatives and solve story problems involving the rate of spread of a disease and Newton's Law of...

Math pages that involve coloring are fun and can help children differentiate patterns or specific information. They compute single-digit addition problems that result in  sums from 10 to 15. Odd numbers are colored red and even...

In this math worksheet, students are given 7 problems in which they differentiate, figure rate of change, determine value, and prove formulas.

Once learners realize what direct variation is, they see it's just a type of linear function. The activity poses a general question that leads to the creation of the y = kx formula. The resource includes discussion prompts and ideas for...
