Math whizzes utilize spreadsheets to examine linear modeling. They roll marbles down a ramp from three different heights and measure how far they roll. They use Excel to record their data and create a plot of their data.

Third graders describe an amount of turn from a particular position to another using the 'circular' benchmarks of 0, ++, ++, ++, and full turn. Estimation language such as 'just about', 'between', 'not quite', 'just over', and similar...

Fifth graders explore the use of trigonometry to find unknown sides and angles in right-angled triangles, taking the concepts that were developed in the previous unit and looking at different ways of practicing the new skills. Students...

Students, through lecture and guided practice, discover the properties of similar triangles. They use given measurements of one triangle to find a missing measurement of a similar triangle. They apply this knowledge in real-life...

Students use Geometer's Sketchpad to draw triangles and explore the classificaiton of each using the mearsures of interior angles and the lengths of the sides.

High schoolers explore the concept of right triangles as they construct a right triangle using Cabri Jr. Learners find the midpoint of the hypotenuse and construct a line from the midpoint to the vertex of the right angle. They then...

In this area worksheet, students read and problem solve the area of 8 triangles. Students show their work on each problem on the worksheet.

Fifth graders explore the importance of triangles in the real world. They find the unknown side of a right triangle using a scale drawing. Students use Pythagoras' Theorem and other appropriate ratios.
