You didn't miss it. The item was labeled with the answer key not included. I have now updated the file with an answer key and changed the label. Sorry about the wait.

I was excited to see something current, but it was already outdated. It is easy to see that a lot of work was put into this, but technology changes constantly.

sheblen re: Simplifying Radicals Balloon Pop Review Game
I just purchased Simplifying Radicals Balloon Pop Review Game. When I opened the powerpoint, it showed the answer immediately on each slide as well as chopped off some of the problems. Am I opening it with the wrong program? Please help, thanks, Nancy
February 5, 2013
misscalcul8 (TpT Seller)
When you play it in the slideshow the answers are not shown. It is opened with powerpoint. Click on slideshow at the top and then From Beginning. The answers will not be shown during the slideshow, only when you have first opened the file.

ebeezy90 re: Proving Triangles Congruent (Proofs) Quiz
How many questions is this test?
February 1, 2013
misscalcul8 (TpT Seller)
There are 10 questions: 1 labeling parts of a triangle, 6 determining the correct theorem/postulate, and 3 proofs.

ErinMarie12 re: Systems of Equations Review Game
Also, the number 12 doesn't seem to link to the problem from the home page. How can I fix that? Thanks!
August 9, 2012
misscalcul8 (TpT Seller)
Click on the orange circle around the 12, not the 12.
At the top, click the Insert tab.
Then click hyperlink (the one with the globe).
Click the radio button next to 'Hyperlink to:'
From the dropdown menu select 'Last Slide'.
Click ok.
Fixed!

ErinMarie12 re: Systems of Equations Review Game
Are the problem numbers random, or are higher numbered problems more difficult?
August 9, 2012
misscalcul8 (TpT Seller)
They are random in order to include word problems and consistent/inconsistent systems. If you go down the powerpoint they are numbered in order.
August 9, 2012
Zion6Teach (TpT Seller) re: Systems of Equations Review Game
When I open the powerpoint the answer shows right away. Can you check to see if it is set up correctly or am I doing something wrong?
May 6, 2012
misscalcul8 (TpT Seller)
If you have just opened it and looked at then both show. But when you click "play slideshow" only the problem will show. After one click, the answer will show. Please let me know if this doesn't work.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
This is my third year of teaching. So far I have taught Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 1 Lab, Algebra II, Geometry Lab, and ACT Test Prep. I am also on my school's literacy team, the Student Council sponsor, and the department head.
MY TEACHING STYLE
My teaching style is evolving to focus on team work where each team member has a role and lessons where students work as a team through a scaffolded investigation to discover new concepts on their own, as opposed to lecture. I try to balance between discovery and direct instruction. My main focus has been to try more activities that have students active in the classroom as well as creating activities that are self-checking by nature. In the future, I am planning to flip the classroom so that students receive new learning through student created tutorials and class time is spent practicing and applying new concepts.

MY OWN EDUCATIONAL HISTORY
I graduated from a very small high school and went on to a small community college. From there I transferred to a large university. Previously I had been a top student but when I began university math classes I struggled. That experience helped shape the way that I want to reach and teach my students and also the reason why I am teaching at my alma mater high school. I am currently in a Master's degree program cohort with my colleagues to receive my degree in Teacher Leadership.
ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
I am currently pursuing my master's degree in Teacher Leadership.
