Curated OER
Differentiation of Student Products
A great way to differentiate instruction is to allow for diverse outcomes from the same assignment.
Curated OER
Numerical Analysis: Introduction to Approximation Theory
In this introduction to approximation theory, students compute the slope and intercept of a line. They describe nonlinear relationships. This four page worksheet contains approximately five problems.
Curated OER
Worksheet 12
For this math worksheet, students explain the vector parametric equation for a line, scalar parametric equations, symmetric equations, and the implicit equation for a line.
Curated OER
Adding Trigonometric Functions
Young scholars identify trigonometric functions. In this trigonometry lesson, students add and subtract trigonometric functions. They add sine and cosine waves and relate it to the real world.
Curated OER
Central Tendencies and Normal Distribution Curve
Fourth graders are given data (class test scores) to determine central tendencies, and find information needed to construct a normal distribution curve. They become proficient in calculating mode, median and average.
