Developing a curve of best fit for dataMathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

Collecting and analyzing data, using curve of best fit Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

This is a remix of the Illustrative Mathematics task that does not actually require that the student solve the system but that they recognize the pairs of linear equations in two variables that would be used to solve the system. This is an important step in the process of solving systems.

Students practice identifying the types of variation from equations and solving problems of different types of variation.

Determining direct variationMathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

This a foldable that can be used for teaching the characteristics of direct and inverse variation.

Dividing Polynomials Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

This is a Desmos activity to explore domain and range of continuous functions.  Students do not need prior knowledge of domain and range; this is an exploratory instructional activity.

This is a remix of a task to help students think about an expression for a function as built up out of simple operations on the variable, and understand the domain in terms of values for which each operation is invalid (e.g., dividing by zero or taking the square root of a negative number).

In this task, students decide which team wins the egg-launching contest by analyzing data from a table, graph and a verbal representation with a quadratic equation. In doing so, students analyze data, determine the equation of the curve of best fit in order to make predictions, and solve practical problems using models of quadratic functions.

Students will be introduced to the Empirical Rule for normal distributions and practice using it to answer questions.

This task asks students to use inverse operations to solve the equations for the unknown variable, or for the designated variable if there is more than one. Two of the equations are of physical significance and are examples of Ohm's Law and Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation.

Evaluating algebraic expressionsMathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

Students will explore literal equations using pictures/images to represent variables.  Students use inverse operations and properties of equality to solve for the specified image.

This resource is a lesson plan that includes links to some useful Desmos Activities to have students practice identifying exponential functions based on the equations.

Students match features of exponential and logarithmic functions and then consider which features could change with a transformation. Features include: domain, range, intervals of increasing/decreasing, x- and y- intercepts, end behavior, and asymptotes.

Performing operations with radical expressions containing rational exponents Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 2016 Mathematics Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the knowledge, skills and processes found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.
