Description
This resource is included in the Algebra II Thin-Slicing Activities Growing Bundle!
About this resource:
This resource was utilized as a "thin-slicing" (see the book Building Thinking Classrooms by Peter Liljedahl) activity for students to introduce solving Quadratic equations by using square roots. Students activate their background knowledge of square roots and solving linear equations to create their own understanding. There are 16 problems in this set.
This application multiple uses in your classroom:
- Thin-slicing lesson within groups
- lesson introduction
- extra practice
- intervention
- So much more!
What topic(s) is/are covered?
- stating square root values
- solving square roots (one-step)
- solving square roots (two-step)
- solving square roots (three-step -- Vertex Form)
Your answer key is included for grading/checking!
Directions:
1. Print enough copies of the activity to have a set for each group in your class.
2. Give each group card "1" to start and have them progress from there.
