Math Lab:Exponential Functions and Seed Overproduction vs Time/DISTANCE LEARNING
My students totally enjoy doing the following math lab! They invariably find it to be both fun to do as well as informative. They readily relate to discussions within.
* Students work with a partner
* Students begin by a brief discussion about seed overproduction
* Students are provided with assumptions used to complete the lab
* Students work collaboratively to determine the number of seeds in a bell pepper
* Students find the average number of seeds in a bell pepper using the totals

Math Lab: The Tangent Ratio, a Clinometer, and Inaccessible Heights
The following math lab is a follow-up to lessons on the Trigonometric Ratios:* In the lab, students follow steps to create a measuring device called The Clinometer* Students use the Clinometer to measure objects of inaccessible heights such as trees or flag poles.* To measure the objects, students use their Clinometer and apply the Tangent Ratio.* Students work with a partner. * One partner looks through the Clinometer while the other partner records the data required to calculate the tange

Math Lab: Investigating Volume/DISTANCE LEARNING/NO PREP
In the following lab, students enjoy a "hands-on" activity to learn the reasoning behind the formulas used in calculating for volume in two solids, the pyramid and the prism.
* Students draw the nets on poster board for a pyramid and a prism, given precise measurements.
* Students carefully cut the nets out and fold according to directions.
* Students use unpopped popcorn, uncooked rice, or dried beans to fill their solids.
* Students compare the volume of a pyramid and a prism with
