Students participate in a game with M&M's to be introduced to percents and ratios. Individually, they estimate and record the number of candies they believe the bag holds and the amount of each colored candy. They open the bag and...

Pupils create a design of a circle. In this geometry lesson, students identify the measure of the diameter and radius of a circle. They graph and analyze their collected data and write equations based on direct variation.

Students explore solenoids and electromagnets. After building an electromagnet, students use a TI Graphing calculator, a CBL 2 interface and a magnetic field sensor to measure the strength of a magnetic field. They create a graph of...

Students explore an exponential relationship and how it relates to human population growth and the current global population crisis. They graph both exponential and linear information.

Students explore principles governing diffusion and osmosis. Students perform a dialysis tubing experiment. They obtain core samples of potato in varying concentrations of sugar-water to measure water potential of the potato cells....

In this college level mathematics worksheet, students explore the number e and graph functions involving e. The two page worksheet contains thirty-two problems. Answers are included.

Students calculate the traveled speed and distance of a robot. In this geometry lesson, students use the distance formula to manipulate and use to solve for the required variable. They calculate answers where two variables are...

Learners use logic to locate the primary cases, the people who started the spread of the disease through the population. They graph the data of the number of people infected over time (exchanges) and determine an equation that best fits...

Students calculate and find a certain location. In this geometry lesson, students examine a coordinate plane for pair of coordinates. They calculate the distance between point using the distance formula and estimation.

Ninth graders view the film "Pay It Forward" and discuss what kind of public campaign is needed to move people to positive action. They consider different ways of presenting information (graphs, visual displays, etc.) as tools for...

Which rate is greater and by how much? Pupils continue to compare rates to solve problems in the 20th portion of a 29-part series. Rates are presented in a variety of representations either using the same representation or different...

Ninth graders examine rates, matrices, histograms, line graphs, data analysis and data presentation in order to develop an understanding of how these concepts apply to a the effects of a specific disease.

Students calculate percentages using the Percent Tricks method. They multiply and divide whole numbers. They count total number of candies in a bag and calculate the percent of each color.

Students collect data for a bouncing ball and select one bounce to analyze. They explore the relationship between velocity, position and acceleration. They seek out connections between the graphs and the physical motion of the ball.

In this population worksheet, students read word problems relating to population growth. They write the problem as a differential equation, create models and graphs of the solution. This three-page worksheet contains 10 multi-step...

Students solve exponential functions. In this algebra lesson, students identify the properties of logarithmic and exponential functions. They graph their functions and solve using change of base formula.

Students create number lines using decimals and whole numbers. In this algebra instructional activity, students graph and solve linear equations. They plot ordered pairs on a coordinate plane correctly.

Pupils calculate the inverse variation, and speed given the formulas. For this algebra lesson, students investigate properties of conics, focusing on the hyperbola. They identify the distance between the directrix and other parts of...

Students analyze function graphs.  In this Algebra II/Pre-calculus lesson, students investigate the graph of a function as they determine to which family of functions it belongs, determine the parent function and describe the...

Students graph and solve linear system of equations. In this algebra lesson plan, students use algebraic and graphing methods to solve their systems. They find the point of intersection for their solution and draw inference from...

Students identify the slope of a lines.In this algebra lesson, students define the  meaning of slope and write an equation given the slope. They graph linear functions using the slope and y-intercept.

Students investigate different correlations. For this algebra lesson, students analyze graphs and identify the lines as having positive, negative or no correlation. They calculate the line of best fit using a scatter plot.

Students calculate the surface area of polygons. In this geometry lesson, students use spacial reasoning to find the answer to their problem. They analyze solids and create formulas to estimate the measurements of the area.

Students perform unit conversion. For this algebra lesson, students calculate the distance and speed of a solar car. They graph their result as speed versus distance and analyze it.
