Solving nonlinear systems of equationsMathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 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.

Analyzing and using the standard normal curve Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 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 practice performing operations and compositions of functions in this activity where a roll of dice determines the functions and two practice problems for the functions.

Counting using permutation and combinations Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the 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 sort twelve scenarios into permutations and combinations. Once they have correctly sorted the scenarios, they will solve the problems in the scenarios and learn how to check their work using the Desmos graphing calculator.

Students will use a draggable point to investigate intervals of increase and decrease and then practice writing and fining intervals.

Students will use the discriminant to determine if quadratic equations have 2 imaginary, 2 real, or 1 real solution. They will then practice solving quadratic equations.

Students will see the most common method used for solving rational equations, practice solving, and check their work on graphs.

Students will use a simulation from a website to examine the effect of standard deviation on the normal curve.

Students use average temperature data from CityRating.com to find and use a curve of best fit for the average temperature in Richmond, Virginia.

Exploring Transformational Graphing Mathematics Instructional Plans (MIPs) help teachers align instruction with the  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.

After completing this activity students will understand the parent functions and how transforming functions impacts the equation.
Students will get practice writing equations for transformed functions. Students will work through a softchalk activity provided through OER Commons and then collaborate on a Desmos activity.

Students tell the story of a jellyfish moving through the water using transformations of quadratic functions in standard form.Students sketch graphs of the transformations.Students put all four transformations on one graph to check that their story and transformations work as desired.  Students may change any transformations prior to submission.

Students are given either a problem, spaces for possible numbers, a formula, an answer, or a combination of some of those items and must fill in the missing spaces. Adapted from a Mathematics Enhanced Scope and Sequence lesson for Algebra II from the Virginia Department of Education.

In Zombie Attack, students will organize, display and analyze data to solve practical problems using models of exponential functions. Learners will use knowledge of transformations to write an equation, given the table and graph of an exponential function. In doing so, students will form connections between multiple representations of exponential functions for analysis, interpretation, and prediction.
