Students investigate the concept of using different types of presentations to help solve mathematical problems. They research the use of illustrations to help understand data and its interpretation in a graphing format. Students also...

Third graders review the commutative and associative property in mathematics. Using a worksheet, they work together to identify the patterns between the 32 triangles. To end the lesson, they create their own array and exchange it with...

In this mathematical operations activity, students read the word problems and use their problem solving skills to determine which mathematical operation to use the solve the word problems.

Students work on different mathematical skills that align with state standards. The skill of problem solving is done with reasoning and communication is made to students through solid brain connections to the math concepts.

Young scholars investigate how to measure the speed of wind. They do this by building their own anemometers. Students calculate the air speeds while using their own projects and make observations. They conduct a mathematical discussion...

Students practice different skills of mathematics used when working with exponents. The lesson has examples that can be used during direct instruction. They complete an exercise on a worksheet before advancing to a new standard.

In this mathematical worksheet, students experience problem solving two pictograms dealing with favorite animals and rainy days.

In this problem solving worksheet, 6th graders work out and solve 4 mathematical equations involving linear systems by substitution #1.

Students work in groups to describe plants using numbers. For this number lesson, students use numbers to define plants and then use numbers to write descriptions of themselves.

Drawing circles isn't the only thing compasses are good for. In this first installment of a 36-part series, high schoolers learn how to draw equilateral triangles by investigating real-world situations, such as finding the location of a...

Even or not, here I come. Groups investigate the parity of products and sums of whole numbers in the 17th lesson in a series of 21. Using dots to represent numbers, they develop a pattern for the products of two even numbers; two odd...

Sixth and seventh graders solve 19 various types of problems related to integers as objects models. They write an integer that corresponds to each letter on a number line and then, arrange the integers from least to greatest. Pupils also...

Learners use the on-line affine recurrence plotter to graph equations. They work on-line to create graphs of trout in a trout pond and savings account balances when interest is compounded over time. Links to the four one-day lessons are...

Lead a discussion on the similarities between the properties of area and the properties of volume. Using upper and lower approximations, pupils arrive at the formula for the volume of a general cylinder. 

How hard can it be to split something in half? Learners investigate how previously learned concepts from angle bisectors can be used to develop ways to construct perpendicular bisectors. The resource also covers constructing a...

Scholars learn to create scatter plots and investigate any relationships that exists between the variables with a lesson plan that also show them that statistical relationships do not necessarily indicate a cause-and-effect...

Discover how trend lines can be useful in understanding relationships between variables with a lesson that covers how to informally fit a trend line to model a relationship given in a scatter plot. Scholars use the trend line to make...

Pupils continue the study of ratios by creating ratios from a context. The contexts present more than two quantities, and scholars create contexts that match given ratios. 

Open your imagination to make algebra-inspired creations. An interactive lesson has scholars graph images from a set of parameters. Users can practice minimum values, maximum values, and scale as well as key features.

A unique lesson on the solar system, and some of the mathematics associated with it, is here for your high schoolers. Pupils are put into groups of four, and each group is assigned one of the planets from our solar system. They must...

In this chemistry worksheet, students focus upon the concepts of mean and standard deviation and how it is used in the laboratory to interpret data.

Here is a good two-page worksheet in which learners are given 30 number lines. The number on the left is always zero, but the number at the far right is different each time. There is an arrow placed pointing down at each number line, and...

Elementary schoolers utilize a pattern worksheet embedded in this plan to work on a deeper understanding of geometric concepts like symmetry and congruency. Since geometry is such a visual form of mathematics, this lesson should fit...
