In this lesson students apply their understanding of linear functions to an analysis of distance vs. time functions. In particular students will: Define the function for finding distance given a constant speed. Graph the distance function and interpret slope, y-intercept, domain, and range.

In this Media4Math Classroom Module, your early elementary students will build on their counting skills by learning the skill of Skip Counting. Using graphics, videos, and games, students are introduced to the skill of Skip Counting and how it can help them improve the speed and accuracy of their counting. Specific examples include Skip Counting by 2's, 5,'s, and 10's.

In this Media4Math Classroom Module, your early elementary students will build on their counting skills by learning the skill of Counting On. Using graphics, videos, and games, students are introduced to the skill of Counting On and how it can help them improve the speed and accuracy of their counting. 

In this Media4Math Classroom Module, your early elementary students will build on their counting skills by combining Skip Counting and Counting On. Using graphics, videos, and games, students are introduced to more challenging counting scenarios that also pave the way for later developing their addition skills. Specifically, students are shown how to combine Skip Counting and Counting On to quickly and accurately count large numbers of items.

The Archer Fish earns its name because it accurately sprays jets of water at insect prey, knocks them into the water, and has a quick meal. The ability to accurately do this has to overcome several geometric and physical challenges. In this module students explore these challenges in more detail.

When a driver slams the brakes on a car, skid marks are created on the road. Accident investigators can measure the length of the skid marks to estimate the speed of the car. This involves using a quadratic function.

Americans manufacture, use, and recycle plastic products. In this module students look at data regarding the use of plastics in order to learn and apply skills related to place value.

In this application of arithmetic concepts, students analyze the changing population of bison in the Americas. Using real-world data and applying key math concepts, students will do some sophisticated analysis using basic skills. 

In this module students learn how to solve two-step equations. Students are shown how to solve these equations using the Properties of Equality (Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division).

In this module students use their geometry and algebra skills to analyze a wildlife refuge in Nevada. Calculating the area, perimeter, and the ratio of the two allows students to analyze different configurations for a refuge. Specifically, they look at ways of designing a wild horse refuge, using the concepts they have learned.
