This resource is one of my favorite ways to allow students to practice with solving systems at their own pace! With a classroom of 30+ students, it helps to have an activity that has automatic differentiation happening! Set up 3 stations (Substitution, Elimination, and Graphing) around the classroom. At each station, place all 12 cards out for that particular station. You can make a specific student answer sheet, or just have students fold a piece of paper into sections and complete the cards th

A guided practice worksheet for writing repeating decimals as fractions. This worksheet follows the first Writing Repeating Decimals as Fractions Worksheet in my TPT store and is just a little bit more challenging. Includes: - Student worksheet - Answer key

A quick reference for students learning about perfect squares and square roots. I have used this bookmark in the 8th grade Common Core units involving estimating square roots on a number line, Pythagorean Theorem, Irrational and Rational Numbers, etc.

Make factoring practice interactive and engaging with this Product & Sum Quiz-Quiz-Trade activity! Students move around the room solving factoring problems by finding two numbers that multiply to a given product and add to a given sum. This activity builds fluency with factoring trinomials through collaborative practice. What’s included:40 ready-to-print cardsEach card includes a product and sum problem on the front and the answer on the back*This resource includes positive and negative products

Looking for a fun, engaging way for students to practice graphing linear functions at their own pace? This Traffic Light Activity is perfect for differentiation and student choice while building confidence with slope-intercept, point-slope, and standard form equations. Students choose from three levels of task cards— Green (Easy), Yellow (Medium), and Red (Hard)—and can focus on all forms of linear equations or just one type that fits their needs. The point-based system motivates students to c

Great classroom activity with embedded opportunities for differentiation and student choice. This resource includes 30 problems (10 green, 10 yellow, and 10 red). Green cards are quadratic trinomials with a=1 and difference of squares, Yellow cards are quadratic trinomials with a=prime or an easy GCF, and Red cards are more challenging quadratic trinomials with a=composite or a harder GCF. In this activity students are given a total points goal for the day (for example, 15 total points for the d

This worksheet aims to have students start to see how changes in the radius and height of a cylinder effect the volume. The goal is for students to see that a change in the radius has a greater effect on volume than a change in the height.

Students will practice finding the x-intercepts of 10 quadratic functions in an interactive scavenger hunt format. This activity can be completed using the zero product property or the quadratic formula, making it flexible for different levels of learners. The looping structure provides built-in, instant feedback. As students solve each problem, they use their answer to locate the next station, which keeps them moving, checking their work, and staying engaged throughout the activity. Quadratic f

A step by step guide to helping students write repeating decimals as fractions using solving equations with various powers of ten. Includes: - Student worksheet - Answer key Check out the more challenging follow up assignment in my TPT store!

Engage your Pre-Calculus students with this interactive, pirate-themed game that reinforces graphing in polar coordinates!In Treasure Hunt, students strategically place gold coins, treasure chests, and the coveted Captain’s Bounty on a polar coordinate grid while also setting Kraken, storms, and shipwrecks as obstacles. Their partner must use r and θ values to guess locations, earning points for treasure and losing points for hazards! Mathematical Benefits: Strengthens graphing polar coordi

Give your students a more engaging way to practice multiplying polynomials with this Partner Roundup activity. Instead of a traditional worksheet, students move around the room, collaborate with different partners, and solve problems together, keeping them active, talking, and thinking throughout the entire activity. Students solve a problem with a partner, trade cards, and then find a new partner to continue the process. This structure creates repeated practice while encouraging mathematical di

There are so many ways to use this resource! What makes this set of trinomials special is that every single binomial (26 trinomials and 52 binomials) is unique. There are no repetitions, which keeps students engaged and thinking critically each round. In my classroom, I hand out the worksheet provided and ask students not to work ahead. Then, I call out a letter at random and have students factor the trinomial. Each problem results in two binomials, but only one of those will appear on their bin

The idea behind “Which One Doesn’t Belong” is that there are many ways to justify which of the 3 polynomials don’t belong. The goal is for students to practice factoring while paying attention to patterns and using content related language in their justifications.  These problems sets can be modified to fit your needs:  Hang slides around the room and have students travel in groups to each station (consider removing the justification section on each slide and then making the equations bigger!)

Great classroom activity with embedded opportunities for differentiation and student choice. This resource includes 15 problems (5 green, 5 yellow, and 5 red). Green cards are "easy difficulty" and include completing the square problems with no GCF and rational solutions. Yellow cards are "medium difficulty" and include completing the square problems with a GCF and rational solutions. Red cards are "hard difficulty" and include completing the square problems with irrational solutions. In this

Students use a card sort activity on a fill in the blank template to practice finding the interior angle sum, individual interior angles, and individual exterior angles for many sided regular polygons. Included: Blank tableCompleted tableStudent WorksheetLink to explanation and teacher tipsInstructions:Print the blank table on white paper (one for each pair of students).Print the completed table on colored paper and cut into individual cards. Put all cards into an envelope or baggie. Students th

This is an interactive activity that allows students to work together. Each student receives a card with either a radius or height measurement. Then students pair up so that one partner has a radius measurement and one partner has a height measurement. They work together to calculate the volume. After they have agreed on an answer they each go out and find a new partner in the class.

In this interactive class activity, students work with many of their peers to practice finding the volume of cylinders and cones given the height and radius measurements. Ditch the worksheet and try a Partner Round Up instead! Students will enjoying moving around the room, working with and learning from other students, all while practicing these two geometric formulas. What's included? -Student worksheet - 16 radius measurement cards - 16 height measurement cards For more info on this activity

In this interactive class activity, students work with many of their peers to practice integer operations. Ditch the worksheet and try a Partner Round Up instead! Students will enjoying moving around the room, working with and learning from other students, all while practicing this simple algebraic skill!
