I have taught 7th, 8th, and high school math for 3 years now. I am certified in secondary and middle grades, ESL, and I am currently working on my Masters in Math Teaching
This is a guided activity, individual practice, skills showcase, and assessment. It covers measuring angles in polygons, adding angles to create specific angle measures, and then actually measuring angles (you can estimate). Materials needed: pattern blocks
This is a step by step lesson that can be used to teach students how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide integers with two color counters
If you do not have access to these counters at your school you can use the website provided as a virtual manipulative, or you can create counters by using "chips" like tiddily winks, or even foam squares (glue two sheets together for the two colored sides).
This file contains 3 quizzes. One regular quiz, a modified one, and an advanced one. Each quiz has a key included (pg 4-6 of the document). Some material was borrowed from various curriculum, but I compiled and created this quiz.
Topics assessed:
Pythagorean theorem
Corollaries of the Pythagorean Theorem
Pythagorean Triples
Word problems involving Pythagorean Theorem/ Triples
This includes 3 different quizzes. One is a regular quiz, one is for pre-ap geometry, and one is modified. It addresses surface area and volume of 3 dimensional figures, as well as unit conversion with surface area and volume.
Includes:
-One Student Recording Sheet
-Six Area and Perimeter Puzzles
Cut puzzles for students ahead of time. Students can work in groups, pairs, or individually depending on level.
Use on student notebooks to keep an ongoing list of important vocabulary terms. Columns for Vocab Word, Definition, "In My Own Words" and visual representation. Helps make student learning concrete and helps students tie learning to real life examples and meanings.

Teaching style
I prefer to do as little direct instruction as possible. I think that kids learn best from doing, and from experiences and discussions with their peers.
