Students look around classroom and identify any patterns they see, describe patterns and explain why they are patterns, use pencil to demonstrate arithmetic patterns by tapping, practice predicting patterns by using Function Box, and...

Students examine different types of spears that have been discovered from various civilizations. In groups, they calculate the answers to various word problems and enter their information on a spreadsheet. They use the data in other...

Young scholars explore the concept of coordinate proofs. In this coordinate proofs lesson, students write coordinate proofs using properties of distance, slope, and midpoint. Young scholars discuss why it is sometimes beneficial to...

Students investigate squares. They generate patterns from structured situations and find a rule for the general term and express it using words and symbols. Students generate patterns from a rule and substitute values and formulas.

Students recognize patterns in a numerical sequence, create new patterns and predict outcomes to established sequences.

Students perform basic operations in modular (clock) arithmetic. Students encode and decode messages using shift and affine ciphers. Students apply their multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction skills.

Students study the recurrence rules for patterns where the increase from one term to the next is not constant. They look for the recurrence rule on their own. They copy the pattern and create the next element, continue the pattern with...

Young scholars are introduced to some number patterns using buildings constructed with squares. They construct tables of patterns and finding the recurrence rule for a simple pattern where the increase from term to term is a constant.

Learners calculate the volume of prisms and cylinders. In this geometry lesson, students are give part of the formula, and must calculate the missing parts. They use 80% accuracy for their dimensions.

Students analyze the relationship between speed, time and distance. In this math lesson, students plan a school trip. Students determine the efficiency and cost effectiveness of a trip.

Pupils examine the patterns that exist in Pascal's Triangle. They explore multiples and factors. Sudents use an applet to create and color the multiples in Pascal's Triangle.

First graders explore the existence of patterns in everyday items. In this science and math integrated lesson, 1st graders match leaves with a name word card and organize them into four patterns. This lesson includes a reading of And the...

Students compute and estimate using mental mathematics, paper-and-pencil methods, calculators, and computers. They measure and compare quantities using appropriate units, instruments and methods. They utilize worksheets imbedded in this...

Students use a NASA website to use a given formula to find acceleration and distance after a specific time and how it relates to engine propulsion.

Students discover patterns and sequences. They use a website to explore patterns and fractals. Students share their discovery of fractals and their patterns with the class. They develop a list of patterns used in everyday life.

Students examine the concept of sequences. Students create a sequence using varied starting numbers, multipliers, and add on values. Students practice determining the starting values to use in order to produce a desired sequence.

Students examine tesselllations and their geometric properties. They have a better knowledge of polygons, can identify types of symmetry in tessellations. Also students use visulization, spatial reasoning, and geometric modeling to...

Students are introduced to the notion of surface area and volume. Students review surface area and volume by finding the area of a two-dimensional shape. They practice using the computer to create different surface area shapes.

Fourth graders find the volume of cubes and cylinders. To determine volume, they fill large cubes with centimeter cubes. They discuss the formula used to find the volume of a cube. Students explore why the solution to the volume of a...

Seventh graders conduct an investigation into the design of bridges and their construction. Students design bridges and draw detailed plans. For assessment they construct a model of a bridge that is made entirely of toothpicks. Students...

Fifth graders investigate the concept of finding the circumference of a circle. They demonstrate why the formula works with a hands on experiment. There is detailed instructions for carrying out the technical portions of the experiment.

Young scholars investigate the concept of subtracting fractions. They use a variety of problems in order to practice new skills. The independent practice is used to obtain an informal measurement of mastery with the use of a formal quiz...

In this geometry worksheet, students investigate vectors. They add, subtract and identify the magnitude of each vector. There are 4 questions with an answer key.

Students collect data and make a frequency table, change ratios into percents, and analyze data to make predictions.
