Pure Mathematics Teacher Resources

Will this be on the test? Learners demonstrate their understanding of trigonometric functions with an end-of-module assessment. They investigate two different real-world situations, one function in pure mathematics, and one potential...

Science, technology, and math come together in this one combination exercise. Analyzing the common soda can from both a purely mathematical perspective and a scientific angle allows for a surprisingly sophisticated comparison of...

Take an abbreviated look at the exam. Class members review released items to prepare for the BC exam. The released questions are the six free-response questions from the 2001 exam. Three of the items have context, while the other three...

Count this assessment in the "use" pile. Middle schoolers solve a set of five problems in the seventh and eighth grade number system domains. All problems are in pure mathematics with no applications.

How does all this math fit together? The resource creates a graphical view of the extent of mathematics. The map shows the pure and applied sides of studying mathematics and breaks them down into their many disciplines.

Make your money work for you. Future economists learn how to apply sigma notation and how to calculate the sum of a finite geometric series. The skill is essential in determining the future value of a structured savings plan with...

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem in three-dimensional shapes. Young mathematicians watch a video that takes them through several examples of using the Pythagorean Theorem to solve problems involving lengths in three-dimensional figures. A...

Is our car bigger than theirs? Is this car better than than that one? Use comparative and superlative adjectives of provided verbs to complete twenty sentences.

Upper elementary and middles schoolers discuss and solve real world applications of math. They use formulas for volume and percents to answer real world questions. In the second part of the lesson, groups write and solve word problems....

Learners explore the concept of number theory. They discuss an assortment of number theory topics such as prime numbers, composite numbers, GCF, modular arithmetic, and others in a lecture style discussion. Pupils view videos about these...

Students disprove evolution. In this science lesson, students disprove evolution by attempting to prove that creation is the way it all began. They use the improbability that evolution could exist and expose its fallacies, frauds and...

Learners explore graph theory.  In this geometry lesson,  graphs are used to solve problems in a variety of domains.  In this lesson the term graph refers to a collection of vertices and edges used to depict travel routes.

In this math worksheet, students find the values of the vectors. They also they prove that v and w are both orthogonal and find two nonparallel vectors.

First graders explore patterns. They look for patterns in number problems and use algebra as a means of solving general problems. Students devise a strategy to solve the number problem.

Students explore patterns in number problems. They devise a strategy to solve a number problem. Students estimate and calculate answers, making efficient use of a calculator, where appropriate, as part of solving a problem. They...
