Students estimate and compute with rational numbers. They compare, order and convert among fractions, decimals and percents. Students analyze problems to determine if there is sufficient or extraneous data to solve.

Second graders explore patterns. In this math lesson plan, 2nd graders discuss patterns and use manipulatives to create patterns. Students create various patterns.

In this task, learners investigate whether exponential functions will always be determined by two points. It complements the task "Do two points always determine a linear function?" Aligns with F-LE.A.2.

In this task, students analyze the sizes of a country's population and of its food supply to determine when and if food shortages will occur. To solve it, they must construct and compare linear and exponential functions and find where...

The context of this task is that a quarter was put into a bank account in 1901 and students are asked to calculate its value in 2013 at two different interest rates. Those amounts are compared to the appreciation rate of a rare and...

For this task, students learn about exponential functions when they investigate the exponential growth of an invasive fish population. Aligns with F-LE.B.5 and F-LE.A.1.c.

In this task, students are shown a table of U.S. population data between 1790 and 1860 and are asked to explore whether exponential functions would be appropriate to model relationships within the data. The purpose of the task is to help...

For this task, students examine world population data from 1804 to 2012 and investigate whether an exponential function is appropriate for modeling the relationship between the world population and the year. Aligns with F-LE.A.1.c.

In this task, students work with exponential functions in a real-world context involving continuously compounded interest. They will study how the base of the exponential function impacts its growth rate and use logarithms to solve...

In this lesson, students will be able to identify parent functions of linear functions, absolute value functions, and quadratic functions. Students will be presented with functions and asked to graph them by first identifying the basic...

This StudyCard stack teaches and tests on the linear function. Shows connection between the function parameters and the resulting geometric behaviors of the linear function. Use with Foundations for College Mathematics, ch. 2.3, 4.1.

This task asks students to analyze a set of data about the height of a basketball for each time it bounces. They choose a model that reasonably fits the data and use the model to answer questions about the physical context. This variant...

This task asks students to analyze a set of data about the height of a basketball for each time it bounces. They choose a model that reasonably fits the data and use the model to answer questions about the physical context. This second...

For this problem, students use an exponential equation to investigate the cooling of a cup of coffee and how long it would take for it to cool down to different temperatures. Aligns with F-LE.B.5 and F-LE.A.4.

In this task, students learn about exponential decay by examining the amount of Carbon-14 left in a preserved plant with the passage of time after the plant has died. This provides a simple introduction to Carbon-14 dating but the actual...

In this task, students investigate the power of exponential growth in this real-world example of an invasive species that was introduced to Florida in 1966, a giant snail. Aligns with F-LE.A.2 and F-LE.A.4.

In this task, students are asked to identify whether changes are linear or exponential. Aligns with F-LE.A.1.

This problem introduces Carbon 14 dating which is used by scientists to date certain organic material. This version is based on the ratio of Carbon 14 to Carbon 12, which decreases at a constant exponential rate after an organism dies....

In this task on exponential decay, students calculate what the amount of Carbon 14 left in a preserved plant will be as time passes and when one microgram will be all that is left. Aligns with F-LE.A.1.c.

For this task, students investigate the exponential growth of a rumor about a celebrity. Aligns with F-LE.A.2.
