A lesson comparing arithmetic and geometric series summation through visual derivation, card sorting, and concept mapping. Students investigate why different patterns of growth require distinct algebraic strategies for finding totals.
An Algebra 1 lesson introducing projectile motion through the lens of launching rockets. Students learn to identify key features of quadratic graphs—specifically the vertex as maximum height and x-intercepts as landing times—and evaluate quadratic functions to find heights at specific seconds.
A hands-on geometry lesson exploring how scaling the linear dimensions of 3D solids by a scale factor k impacts their total surface area (by k²) and volume (by k³). Features interactive model-scaling examples, a vocabulary challenge, and guided practice.
A rigorous STEM project combining structural engineering with advanced mathematics. Students design, budget, build, and test spaghetti bridges using ratios, proportions, cost-efficiency metrics, quadratic modeling, and catenary curves.
An assessment aligned with ACT CCRS WME 402 focusing on two-step and three-step word problems involving fractions and percents. Students solve practical business and kitchen problems for a boutique bakery.
A structured math lesson focused on functional real-world math skills, covering decimals, money, multi-digit operations, percentages (10% and 50%), and word problem solving. Includes a 3-page study packet, a visual anchor chart reference sheet, and a complete teacher guide.
A complete set of high-contrast, professional binder organization kits for Economics, Business Mathematics, Algebra, and Personal Finance. Each kit contains a master index cover page, table of contents, customizable assignment logs, and printable color-coded divider tabs with matching spine inserts.
A comprehensive unit introducing the fundamental building blocks of geometry: points, lines, planes, segment addition, distance/midpoint formulas, angle addition, and basic angle relationships. Includes multi-day guided notes and teacher resources.
A comprehensive geometry unit review lesson covering transformations, angle relationships, the distance formula, and triangle congruence criteria. This lesson provides students with structured practice and self-contained explanations to solidify basic identification and direct application of these core geometric principles.
An introductory algebra lesson on solving multi-step equations with variables on both sides. Students use the visual metaphor of a cosmic balance scale to perform operations simultaneously on both sides, working toward isolating the unknown variable.
A complete instructional lesson on solving multi-step equations in Algebra 1, utilizing a 'Top-Secret Case File' theme. It includes briefing slides, a structured student case-file worksheet, and a detailed answer key.
A comprehensive review of the Geometry New York State Regents curriculum, focusing on proofs, transformations, similarity, trigonometry, and coordinate geometry.
A comprehensive review of the Algebra 1 New York State Next Generation Regents curriculum, focusing on linear, exponential, and quadratic functions, statistics, and algebraic procedures.
