This activity has students summarize the data from Lebron James, Trae Young, and Nikola Jokic. They will calculate measures of center and variation, make a stacked box and whisker plot, and answer several questions based on their results. The data used in this activity was taken from ESPN statistics in February of 2022. Detailed key included!

This activity puts real data to the test on who is the greatest of all time. Up for debate are Michael Jordan, Lebron James, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. The data is a compilation of each player's points scored per game during the highest scoring month of their career. Students will calculate measures of center and variation, make a stacked box and whisker plot, and answer several questions based on their results. The data used in this activity was taken from ESPN statistics. A great extension w

The activity has 10 problems. Students must calculate the surface area of the given rectangular or triangular prism. The answer key is provided.

This Systems of Linear Equations Escape Room Activity is a fun and challenging way for students to practice writing and graphing systems, along with practicing both the elimination and substitution method. Included are 4 challenge puzzles, each revealing either a 4 or 5 letter or digit code. Directions on how to prep and assemble the challenges are also included. A student recording sheet for codes and an answer key for each puzzle are also provided. I recommend having a prize for students w

Includes 12 fractions that need to be converted to decimals. Each question corresponds with a piece of the picture on the back. If done correctly, the students should end up with a picture of a shark in the end. Great for self-checking!

This Geometry Escape Room Activity is a fun and challenging way for students to practice 2D Geometry concepts. Included are 6 challenge puzzles, each revealing either a letter or digit code. Directions on how to prep and assemble the challenges are also included. A student recording sheet for codes and an answer key for each puzzle are also provided. I recommend having a prize for students who are able to escape all 6 challenges, but they enjoy the activity either way! There is little to no pre

This worksheet is great for sub plans, early finishers, or can be used as a practice day. I've used it during small groups and it worked really well. The practice includes 12 problems all on compound probabilities. They are all small enough so that students can solve using tree diagrams, tables, or lists. It is a very simple drawing of a house so if they aren't great artist, they can still generate the final picture. These can be done directly on the grid provided or you can place a thin s

There are 3 scenarios given; 2 of which will originally be written as point slope form, and the other will be written as standard form. Students are asked to write an equation from each context and then answer a variety of questions about that same context.

Students will pair up and face off in the classic game of TIC TAC TOE but will solve multiplication and division problems with decimals in order to place their "X" or "O". Answer key is provided.

Students simplify expressions with exponents of integer bases (no variables). Students are able to self check their work by obtaining the code word: "antiperspirant!" It always brings up a great talking point for personal hygiene with my middle schoolers (haha!).

Students will work individually or in pairs to match each equation with it's answer. Each answer is used exactly once and the dominoes will make a continuous loop when equations are all solved correctly. There are 24 total equations including variables on both sides and 2 examples of special cases (no solution and infinite solutions).

Students will practice writing equations in slope intercept form given: the slope and y-intercept, a point and the slope, two points, a table, etc... Students should get into groups of 2 or 4. They can be on a team (2 v 2) or play against one person (1 v 1). Each group will need a deck of playing cards. The first team will draw a card which corresponds to a question. For example, if John draws a 2 of diamonds, he will need to answer the question "2" on the diamonds page. Both groups will so

Students will get into pairs and face off in this fun, no prep game! Students can face each other one on one, or have a pair compete against another pair of students. All you need is a few decks of cards! Student directions and answer key are provided. The game included a variety of angle relationships from identifying vertical, complementary, and supplementary angles, or using angle relationships to solve equations. If you are like me, you may have decks of cards already but they are missi

Students pair up and use the problems to play the classic game of TIC TAC TOE with both positive and negative decimals. There are 9 total problems. Answer key included.

Students use this self checking versatiles 12 question worksheet to practice dividing radicals including rationalizing the denominator. This is meant to be a more basic level practice and only includes monomials and does not include variables.

Students can check their work using versatiles. This can still be used as a matching worksheet if you do not have access to versatiles. Problems include calculating basic commission and simple interest problems. I used this in my 7th grade math class after introducing commission and simple interest. *Key is included*

Students will pair up and play a game of TIC TAC TOE to practice their knowledge of arithmetic and geometric sequences. An answer key is provided.

12 Printable Task cards Requires students to: Convert fractions to decimals Compare fractions Add/divide/multiply negative fractions

This 16 question worksheet is self-checking so students will be able to determine their accuracy once they have completed a row, column, or diagonal (they should all sum to -2).

Students will solve various unit rate problems. The first 5 answers will sum to be 178.12 so students can check their work before moving onto question 6 and 7. An answer key is provided.
