Slip sliding away. Groups investigates the two types of friction by running an experiment that allows them to calculate the coefficient of static friction and the coefficient of kinetic friction. The experiment uses a box, a...

Some things are hard to resist. Small collaborative groups build circuits and calculate the voltage using Ohm's Law. Budding engineers explore the connection between the voltage across different resistors and linear...

Objects may be more linear than they appear. Scholars investigate the relationship between the number of bone mineral density scanners in the US and time. Once they take the natural logarithm of the number of scanners, a linear...

Let's get the herd to follow the rules. The activity associated with the second lesson in the unit introduces the class to the definition of a function. Individuals must gather in groups of zebras and rhinos defined by the general...

In this calculus activity, students match cosine values with sine values. They solve trigonometric equations and graph functions. There are 20 questions with a bonus question.

In this identities activity, students match equivalent expressions containing sine, cosine, and tangent.  They solve equations, find intervals, and determine all solutions to an interval.  Students prove given identities. ...

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...

Addition practice worksheets are good to have on hand to add to homework packets. On this one, 30 single-digit vertical problems are arranged into six rows of five problems each. Add this to your library of tools for reinforcing addition...

Students define the slope of a line. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between parallel and perpendicular lines using their slopes. They rewrite equations in slope intercept form and explain the meaning of the slope.

In this subtraction worksheet, students use a spinner to spin to a number between 1 and 9. Students draw that number on the picture of the open hand. Students then find out how many beans are in the other hand by subtracting to complete...

Students graph lines in a coordinate plane. For this geometry lesson, students graph lines on a coordinate plane, and identify the slope. They classify the lines as parallel or perpendicular and write an equation of a given line.

In this trigonometry activity, students solve for trigonometric functions. They convert between radians and angles using the properties of sine, cosine and tangent. There are 30 problems on this handout.

In this electrical learning exercise, students answer a series of 7 open-ended questions with schematics about active loads in amplifier circuits. This learning exercise is printable and the  answers are available on-line.

Students practice their multiplication table using a game to increase speed and accuracy. In this multiplication activity, students distribute 5 random number cards to each player (2-5 players) and they "play" if their hand includes 3...

Students factor trinomials using specific factoring methods. In this algebra lesson, students factor equations using the difference of squares and foiling. They play a game to enhance their understanding of factoring.

In this black hole worksheet, learners use the equation for time dilation to solve 8 problems including determining the time it takes to receive a GPS signal from space, the time delay for the GPS-Earth system, the distance a radio...

For this algebra worksheet, students solve word problems by rewriting the words into equations and answering the questions. There is an answer key.

Students practice using algebra to be applied to real world situational problems. The key concepts of translation of language to algebraic expressions is covered. They also look in depth at relationships between different quantities.

Pupils model three-dimensional objects using cubes. In this geometry lesson, students calculate the volume and derived the amount mathematically. They use different objects to create two and three-dimensional objects.

Your algebra learners become bankers for a day as they explore compounding interest and the formula used to calculate the balance in a savings account. Questions guide the learners as they analyze the formula's parts and their connection...

Scholars find a pattern from a geometric sequence and write the formula for extending it. The worksheet includes a table to complete plus four analysis questions. It concludes with instructional implications for the teacher.

A function is like a machine that has an input and an output. Challenge scholars to look at the eight given points and determine the two functions that would fit four of the points each — one is linear and the other non-linear. The...

Seventh graders translate word sentences to algebraic expressions. In groups of three, 7th graders determine the number of times their heart beats in fifteen seconds. Using this data, they calculate the heartbeats per minute, in five...

Students complete activities to explore number sequence. In this number arrangements lesson, students play a game of finger flash and then read the book 12 Ways to Get to 11. Students count and track the amounts in the book to make an...
