These activities will be used with the website desmos. If you haven't heard of it, it's a great graphing website. Each of these papers are step by step directions for students to manipulate different types of functions. They may not be considered perfect but I've tried to water them down so the students can be introduce to what they each look like and how changing values manipulates the graph. Within this bundle are linear, absolute value and quadratic. They are short simple and to the point. Af
This is set up as a jeopardy game. It includes the basic understanding of the following topics, slope, solving equations, formulas, scientific notation, graphs, power rules, and Pythagorean theorem.
This powerpoint talks about the basics of parent functions, what the graphs will look like and how the translations can move and alter each graph. This includes horizontal, vertical stretches and shrinks, reflections, and translations.
- Is it a Right Triangle column are all Yes or No answers. - Word Problems column gives the player the ability to forfeit 100 points to see a visual/picture of what the word problem is stating. - All of the 100, 200 & 300 choices are multiple choice. - 400 and 500 options are solving WITHOUT multiple choice options. - There are animations within the powerpoint to conceal answers. ANSWERS ARE PROVIDED on each slide.
Included is a powerpoint and game board. I currently have titled this game as LINKS. The object of the game is to link as many squares as possible. The only materials you will need is a way to display the powerpoint, the game board and colored pencils. Students are broken into groups. Each group has their own game board and their own team color. They may select any square/number they choose on the board. Each square has a hidden problem which you will display from the powerpoint. Students must w
Typically I pair this with a video as an introduction activity to all 3 equations. I want them to start knowing them by name and seeing difference immediately by looking at graphs, tables, and equations.
For those of you who are considering using my scatter plot stations here is a quick powerpoint you can go over and discuss with the students to refresh and get their minds ready for the station work. I always try a mini discussion or review before sending them out to complete individual work. You can edit and change things as needed! This powerpoint include curriculum for 8th and 9th grade so slides may need to be removed if needed.
This choice board extends students learning by covering a topic they may have struggled with. You can edit it to your classrooms needs but below the choice board each block is broken down into more detail and more directions. ENJOY!
My stations are not fancy but they do have the necessary graphs, math and questions to make the student read, focus and make their best attempt. Each station may have more then one question so if a student does get stuck he can attempt a separate question. These slides include the basics of scatter plots along with, residual data, causation and in/ex-terpolation. For this activity I group the powerpoint slides as a print out of 6 on the front and back and give them to students so they can circle

This is just a helpful page of notes for students when they are first learning about Measure of Center/Spread/Standard Deviation. It is filled with a few helpful notes and a description of each to help prepare them for a future test or quiz. Really helped my students with their note taking!
This fun interactive jeopardy game can help students with their rational and irrational numbers. Helps with everything from repeating decimals to cube and square roots.
Power points starting with slope, direct variation and finally slope intercept form. These power points flow from one to the other to help introduce each concept with notes and examples.
This powerpoint can either serve as a way to introduce material or review material. The powerpoint creates a walk through on the concepts of Measure of Center, Measure of Spread, Range, Quartiles, Dividing Quartiles, IQR, Variance, and Standard Deviation. I did also create a handmade cheat sheet when I first introduced standard deviation that I allowed them to use the first week.
These expectations are centered around my classroom (middle school) so you're welcomed to edit it as needed. Attached with the expectations is a quiz you can have students take the next day to refresh them with your rules and to ensure they listened while discussing the expectations. The quiz and expectations are adjustable to your classroom. Its always a great idea to set down some rules about your space the first day to make sure you and your students are on the same page!
Included are two powerpoint. One powerpoint is a series of notes about scatter plots including correlations, lines of best fit, outliers, slope-intercept form, correlation coefficient, linear regression, residual data, extrapolation and interpolation. The second powerpoint are a series of stations. Each slide is filled with questions that the students must work to answer. You can have them do this individually, partners, or groups.
