Audiences: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8

Primary Subjects: Discrete, Number and Operations

Related Topics: area, division, divisors, factors, multiples, multiplication, rectangles, whole numbers

Finding the factors of whole numbers.

Audiences: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8

Primary Subjects: Discrete, Number and Operations

Related Topics: area, division, divisors, factors, multiples, multiplication, rectangles, whole numbers

Students will graph input/output pairs from a simple linear function in order to gain an understanding of basic linear functions.

Audiences: Grades 6-8, Grades 9-12

Primary Subjects: Algebra

Related Topics: cartesian coordinate, coordinate, coordinate plane, functions, graph, linear functions, lines

Activities (5)

Visualize factors through building rectangular areas on a grid. First enter all the factorizations of a number, then draw each factor set as an area on the grid. Factorize is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Audiences: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8, Grades 9-12

Primary Subjects: Discrete, Fractions, Geometry, Number and Operations

Related Topics: area, arithmetic, commutative, divisors, factors, grouping, multiples, multiplication, rectangles, whole numbers

Visualize factors through building rectangular areas on a grid. As you draw each factor set on the grid, the factors will be listed. Factorize 2 is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Audiences: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8, Grades 9-12

Primary Subjects: Discrete, Fractions, Geometry, Number and Operations

Related Topics: area, commutative, division, divisors, factors, multiples, multiplication, rectangles, whole numbers

Recognize patterns in a series of shapes, numbers, or letters. After determining the pattern, the student fills in the missing pieces. Three levels of difficulty are available.

Audiences: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8

Primary Subjects: Number and Operations

Related Topics: arithmetic, arithmetic sequences, iteration, pattern, sequences

Plot ordered pairs of numbers, either as a scatter plot or with the dots connected. Points are connected from right to left, rather than being connected in the order they are entered.

Audiences: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8, Grades 9-12

Primary Subjects: Algebra, Geometry, Graphs, Statistics

Related Topics: cartesian coordinate, coordinate plane, coordinate system, data plot, decimals, graph

Give input to the Whole Number Cruncher and try to guess what it did from the output it generates. This activity only generates multiplication and addition functions to avoid outputting any negative numbers. Whole Number Cruncher is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Audiences: Grades 3-5, Grades 6-8, Grades 9-12

Primary Subjects: Algebra, Discrete, Number and Operations

Related Topics: addition, algebra, arithmetic, assessment, coordinate, function machine, functions, input, linear equations, linear functions, multiplication, output, pattern, solving equations, whole numbers
