Students favorite and at this age competition is very motivating. Students worked really hard and wanted to be the first one to get all answers correct. Keeps all students engaged.
I used this activity in class. Had a few glitched, but everything will the first time you use a new activity anyway. Otherwise really well thought out.
I'm glad you liked it! I love Partner Problems. It's great to see the kids helping each other. I have them for most of the areas of review in Algebra 1. I just need to get them all uploaded. :)
Thanks for you purchase and for taking time to review the item.
Julie,
I am SO SORRY! I just downloaded it from this site and I could see everything. So strange! If TpT will allow it, I can send you a Word Doc so you can see it better. Email me at: vicki.hines@verizon.net

coachkida re: Alg 1 -- Solving Inequalities
I bought your lesson on solving inequalities, but my computer says there are no files in the zip file. I don't know what to do next...is there a password of some sort? Any help you can provide would be much appreciated.
Akida,
There is no password. I am uploading the file again. If they want to charge you to download it again, let me know and I will send you a copy. Just leave me an email address so I can get it touch with you. So sorry!

Algebra4All (TpT Seller) re: Alg 1 -- Do Vampires Really Exist? (Exponents & Proof by Contradiction"
I am intrigued by your title. However, I cannot tell by the description if this would fit in with my functions unit or not. I see the list of standards, but I am not sure exactly what students would be doing in this activity. Can you load it with thumbnails?
Obviously you probably wanted this around the Halloween season. (that's when I always used it) The lesson is basically to teach students how to use a spreadsheet, and all the functions that go with that. It also allows them to see what "proof by contradiction" means as they prove that vampires could not exist. Students do develop a formula to "fit the function" but I seriously don't think I would use it thinking it was an awesome lesson for a unit on functions.
I do apologize for not answering sooner. I did not know that this area existed. (I'm new to TpT) I had often wondered how I could get in touch with my buyers to ask them questions (I still don't know that), and how buyers could let me know how things were going with the lessons.
Hope that answered your question. (although I doubt that you really cared about an answer at this point in time!) LOL
