A high-energy 1st-grade lesson introducing pennies, nickels, and dimes through a carnival-themed market simulation. Students identify coins and practice counting mixed groups to 'buy' carnival treats.
A multi-sensory Kindergarten lesson that transforms counting into a neighborhood adventure. Students develop one-to-one correspondence and number recognition through hands-on sorting, classroom 'neighborhood' exploration, and interactive visual aids.
Students will learn the concept of a health insurance deductible, focusing on the math of reaching the deductible amount before insurance coverage begins.
A comprehensive review lesson covering all health insurance concepts, including terminology, cost calculations, and plan comparisons to prepare for assessment.
A comprehensive assessment covering health insurance basics, cost calculations, and plan comparisons for consumer math students.
A strategic masterclass for the ACT Science section, focusing on speed-reading data sets, identifying experimental variables, and decoding scientific logic. This lesson emphasizes the 'Straight to the Data' approach to maximize score in the 35-minute time limit.
An introductory exploration of calculus-adjacent concepts tested on the ACT, focusing on limits, instantaneous rates of change, and function optimization. Students will master the Limit Blueprint and apply rate-of-change logic to complex algebraic scenarios.
An intensive masterclass on advanced trigonometric identities, the unit circle, and non-right triangle laws. Students will master the Pythagorean identities, Law of Sines/Cosines, and the specific ACT-style unit circle coordinates required for top-tier scores.
A specialized deep dive into advanced geometry concepts including circle equations, 3D volume/surface area of complex shapes, and coordinate geometry involving perpendicularity and distance. Students will master completing the square for circles and visualizing 3D cross-sections.
A specialized deep dive into trigonometric functions, mastering the critical distinction between period and frequency. Students will apply the 2π/b blueprint to decode sine and cosine graphs and solve high-difficulty periodic motion problems.
A focused deep dive into imaginary and complex numbers. Students will master powers of i, arithmetic with complex conjugates, and solving quadratic equations with complex roots—all through the lens of ACT-style 'Final Ten' questions.
A comprehensive lesson focused on performing and interpreting linear regression analysis using real-world UN population and surface area data. Students will learn to identify variables, evaluate the impact of outliers, and draw conclusions based on correlation coefficients.
A comprehensive lesson focused on high-level ACT Math topics including matrices, complex functions, trigonometry, and advanced statistics. The lesson emphasizes identifying common 'traps' and applying architectural-style problem-solving strategies.
A comprehensive lesson on interpreting and analyzing complex data visualizations, including trends, correlations, and statistical distributions for high school students.
A cumulative review lesson where students apply their knowledge of inverse operations to solve mixed one-step equations involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Expanding algebraic thinking to multiplication and division. Students will learn how to 'undo' multiplication by splitting into equal groups (division) and 'undo' division through multiplication, maintaining the balance of the scale.
A foundational introduction to basic algebra using the balance scale analogy, specifically designed for students working at a 3rd-grade level. Students will learn about variables and the concept of inverse operations to 'undo' addition and subtraction.
A Tier 2 intervention lesson for 6th grade focused on equivalent ratios using tape diagrams and visual models. Students practice through guided 'recipes' and matching activities to build conceptual understanding.
A focused lesson on solving quadratic equations and understanding quadratic functions, featuring a review presentation and a multiple-choice assessment.
A Tier 2 intervention lesson for 5th grade students focused on conceptually understanding equivalent fractions and renaming them to add fractions with unlike denominators. Students will explore the 'Identity Property of 1' through visual models to see why multiplying the numerator and denominator by the same number creates an equivalent fraction.
A comprehensive lesson covering addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of integers using visual models and algorithmic rules.
