Students investigate and measure using the metric and customary units. For this math lesson, students investigate which method is used most worldwide, the metric or the customary. They convert from unit to the other.  

Students graph polygons using the name and number of sides. For this geometry lesson, students identify the formula to calculate the area and perimeter of polygons. They relate the formula to different polygons and shapes.

Students plant seeds and watch them sprout. Once growing plants are placed in different conditions and students record data about their growth. They graph the data.

Fifth graders solve mathematical problems using manipulatives in this math lesson for the fifth grade classroom. Various activities are suggested for lesson implementation making this lesson highly adaptable to fit the needs of the...

Students investigate the election and poll surveys. In this statistics instructional activity, students take poll information and analyze the data. They graph their data and make predictions and conjectures.

Students measure and correlate their foot lengths and body heights, then use this data to estimate height of Laetoli hominids. They use metric measurement and graphing to determine these heights.

Students use properties of exponents to solve equations. In this algebra instructional activity, students add, subtract, multiply and divide exponential functions. They graph and differentiate between exponential growth and decay.

Students use a spreadsheet to find sequences of numbers. In this algebra lesson, students find the values for c of a quadratic written in standard form. They relate the behavior of the graph to the values of the equation.

A game is a great way to learn. Study what makes an integers, their traits, and characteristics. This lesson includes 3 separate activities intended to promote an understanding of integers, whole numbers, and opposites. The class is...

Mathematics is all about patterns. Young mathematicians analyze geometric patterns to write algebraic expressions. They use the expressions to predict future stages of the patterns.

Students create a book about their school experience entitled, "(Student's name) Goes to School." They identify who their friends are and discuss and list them as one page in their booklets. Students also listen to a story read by the...

Students investigate Limits using a graphing calculator or TI. For this calculus lesson, students solve limit problems through modeling and relation to the real world. They use correct notation and solve problems involving more than one...

Students complete a lab that introduce the scientific concept of climate on Earth. Following the lab, they complete further research on climate. Using average monthly temperatures students construct a mathematical model and analyze the...

Students explore the relationship between distance and time. They analyze a situation involving distance traveled in a given period of time, represent the situation graphically and algebraically, and discuss the concept of slope as a...

Alegebra amateurs identify the slope and the y-intercept given a linear equation in slope-intercept form by correctly completing some in class problems. They write the linear equation in slope-intercept form that corresponds to the given...

Pupils build on previous experience with slope to investigate positive, negative, zero, and undefined slope. They complete a puzzle matching slope-intercept and standard forms of linear equations.

Perform data analysis on energy consumption to apply algebraic expressions to the real world. Learners will write and solve equations that answer various questions from residential power use. They will collect data at home and calculate...

Nothing fancy here ... just your run-of-the-mill Algebra party! Learners explore the patterns of linear functions while designing seating arrangements for a dinner party. Comparing the number of tables to the perimeter of the combined...

If a linear function and a quadratic function enter a boxing match, which one would win? Learners first review how to find key features of linear and quadratic functions. Next, they compare key features of pairs of functions.

Find that slope! This video does an excellent job of demonstrating how to use the slope formula to find the slope of a line using two points. The instructor first reviews the definition of slope of a line, then works three problems using...

What makes a function a function? Learn the criteria for a relation defined as a function both numerically and graphically. Once young mathematicians define a function, they use function notation to evaluate it. 

Learners develop a budget for spending and saving. In this economics lesson, students create a budget based on personal, family and government income. They discuss jobs at home and allowances. They discuss how they manage their money...
