Curated OER
Theorems About Roots and Polynomial Equations
In this algebra worksheet, students solve polynomial equations using factoring. They identify the roots of the equations. There are 3 questions with an answer key.
Curated OER
Pythagorean Theorem
Students solve problems using the Pythagorean Theorem. In this geometry lesson plan, students identify the sides and angles of a right triangle. They find the different trigonometric ratios and solve using sine, cosine and tangent.
Curated OER
SHHH It's a Secret
Students rewrite word problems using expressions and equations. In this algebra lesson, students use the correct variable to solve and write equations. They use the TI to graph their solution.
Curated OER
Team Puzzles
Fourth graders work in co-operative teams of four to complete a puzzle. Each student initially works independently, and then the team jointly puts together the four shapes they have individually made, to complete the puzzle.
