This document has a detailed worked out example of defining the variable, writing an expression, and evaluating it for a given value. The example is followed by 5 word problems for students to attempt on their own.

Students need to determine which figures are similar from two different groups of shapes. Then they need to find the scale factor for each pair of similar figures.

Students are paired up for this activity. Each partner must solve a set of questions. The answer for each question number is the same for both partners but the problem is different. If a student gets a different answer then their partner, they must look at their work and their partner's work to determine where the mistake was made. This particular activity focuses on multiplying and dividing signed numbers.

Students will need to find the slope of parallel and perpendicular lines given an equation in slope-intercept, point-slope, or standard form or the graph of a line. When they type in their answers, the cell will turn green if it is correct.

Students will convert between fractions, decimals, and percent. As they complete the problems, they type in their answers. If their answer is correct, the cell will turn green and reveal part of the punchline of a joke.

Students will find the slope from a graph or set of points. As they complete the problems, they type in their answers. If their answer is correct, the cell will turn green and reveal part of the punchline of a joke.

Student will convert between fractions, decimals, and percent to solve a murder mystery. Post 15 of the 18 problems around the room for students to complete. As they complete a problem they should be able to eliminate a location, object, or suspect just like the boardgame until only one remains in each category. You can change the objects, locations, and suspect to people, places, or objects within your own school to personalize this activity for your students.

Students will need to find the vertex and y-intercept of several absolute value functions. As they type in their answers for each question, the cell will turn green if it is correct and reveal part of the punchline to a joke. If the cell does not turn green, students should conduct an error analysis.

This activity has students define parallel and perpendicular lines, calculate the slopes of each, and finally draw a conclusion about the slopes.

This is a worksheet I created as a review of slope-intercept form for my algebra 2 class. It has the steps of how to graph a line in slope-intercepts form, an example, and problems for students to complete.

Students will simplify expression by distributing and/or combining like terms. When they type in their answer the cell will turn green if it is correct. If the cell does not turn green they should conduct an error analysis.

Students will solve linear inequalities in this activity. As they complete the problems, they should type their answers in the space provided in interval notation. If the solution is correct the cell will turn green and reveal part of the punchline of a joke.

Students will add, subtract, multiply, and divide fractions. As they complete the problems, they type in their answers. If their answer is correct, the cell will turn green and reveal part of the punchline of a joke.

This is a worksheet where students solve radical equations and solve quadratic equations by taking square roots. The problems start simple and build in difficulty.

Students are paired up for this activity. Each partner must solve a set of questions. The answer for each question number is the same for both partners but the problem is different. If a student gets a different answer then their partner, they must look at their work and their partner's work to determine where the mistake was made. This particular activity focuses on finding part of a coordinate given the slope and another coordinate.

Students will solve proportions. As they complete the problems, they type in their answers. If their answer is correct, the cell will turn green and reveal part of the punchline of a joke.

Students will add, subtract, multiply, and divide integers. As they complete the problems, they type in their answers. If their answer is correct, the cell will turn green and reveal part of the punchline of a joke.

This is a great real life application of surface area! Students will need to measure and create a net of their bedroom. Then they will create a 3D model of their bedroom using the scale of 1 inch to 3 feet. Next they will calculate the surface area of their bedroom and determine what the surface area of their walls they will need to paint. Afterwards students will determine how many gallons and quarts of paint they will need to paint their bedroom. The final step if for students to research
