2nd Act Math

Six slides can be printed as posters to hang as visual reminders for students that struggle with fraction operations. Anchor charts, reference, remediation, visuals, struggling learners Topics Include: comparing fractionschanging fractions to decimals and percentschanging mixed number to improper fractionsadding & subtracting fractionsmultiplying fractionsdividing fractions

As intro to systems of equations, we complete the interactive note sheets together as a class looking for the “break-even” point for the two different gym scenarios. Students are introduced to finding the solution through a table, graph and by setting the equations equal to each other. The follow-up practice is the group activity. Students are put in groups of three. They are given the same scenarios, but each group member solves each a different way. Group members then compare answers to be sur

Need a no-prep activity that will keep your class engaged for the full period? This Thanksgiving 4-Square activity meets that need! Simply assign the slideshow in Google Classroom so that all students can edit the one slideshow. Put them into small groups (2-3) and assign each group a slide to complete. Students will have fun watching others complete slides as they work to complete their own!

Students are given a graph and an equation. Using the graph, they identify the slope and y-intercept of the line. This activity is intended to be an introduction to sloe-intercept form. Students should be able to "discover" y=mx+b. To complete the activity, students should know how to find slope from a graph. If students enter the correct answers, then the square turns green.

This is great practice for students for students just learning how to graph systems of linear equations. Students choose which systems to graph based on letters they think appear in the secret message. It is completely editable, so teachers (or students as challenge) can quickly create their own secret message. All the equations are in slope-intercept form and include a few special case equations (VUX/HOY). Grids are provided for graphing. Directions can easily be adapted to have students solve

Get ready for a fast-paced game that will get your most reluctant students engaged! Use as practice at the end of a unit on solving equations in one variable, or as a refresher. Copy each round of problems (cut the full sheets) so there are enough for each group to have one.  Lay all ten rounds out in order in one location in the classroom. Break the class into groups of 2 or 3.  I have students work the problems on whiteboards.  Each group will need to come up with a team name.  Record the team

Students pratice solving multi-step equations, then find someone in the class that fits each category.

This sheet is designed to be a quick warm-up or exit slip to check students understanding of simplifying radicals. If they enter the correct numbers, a rainbow of colors will form.
