Solving Systems of Linear Inequalities
One thing that puzzles a lot of young algebrists is the factors in a word problem that are taken as "understood". This presentation on solving systems of linear inequalities does a great job walking the learner through how to tease those...

Solving Exponential Equations
Introducing exponential equations means learners need to take all the rules and tricks they learned for exponents and actually apply them. This presentation comes to the rescue by touching on changing bases in exponential equations after...

Indefinite Integrals
The inverse of matter is anti-matter, so the inverse of a derivative is an antiderivative. The lesson introduces antiderivatives and indefinite integrals to the class along with the notation for integrals. Groups work together to find...

Introducing Linear Terminology
Ninth graders graph linear equations and inequalities in two variables and then, they write equations of lines and find and use the slope and y-intercept
of lines. They use linear equations to model real data and define to define the...
