It's that time of year again! Summer is almost here and everyone is getting antsy. Instead of fighting and trying to learn new things, let's demonstrate our understanding of concepts we have already learned this year. Here is a fun, creative way for us to show each other what we have learned. These projects can really be adapted for most grade levels, but will work best for grades 6 through 9. The projects include, writing a picture book, creating a PowerPoint/poster, performing a skit, or

This classroom tested lesson is a fun way to apply ratios and proportions to the real world. Included is a warm-up reviewing fraction operations, a worksheet all about planning a trip to the beach (called Beach Time Ratios and Proportions), a memory game that requires students to evaluate a proportion and find its matching answer card, and a one-question exit ticket to give you the opportunity to quickly evaluate how your students have done with understanding the concepts within this lesson.

This quiz is a classroom-tested creation. This was made to test students' abilities with recognizing the order of rational numbers, but especially negative numbers. Students often label, for example, -2 ½ incorrectly to the right of the -2 because on the positive side of the number line, 2 ½ goes to the right of 2. After instructing how to correctly place integers on a number line, then students should be able to complete this quiz with an acceptable grade. Enjoy!

Hello all! This is one of my creations that I am probably most proud of! On the first slide, directions are provided. On each slide, the pirate directions will appear, then the coordinate plane will rotate, then the correct figure placement will appear. I also provide a student hand-out sheet with each of the coordinate planes on it so that each problem can be performed by each student. This Rotations Presentation Worksheet can be purchased for $1.00. Enjoy!

This lesson is designed to continue to develop student understanding of the measures of central tendency, which are mean, median and mode. This lesson includes a task, class activity, exit ticket, and homework assignment with a "part two" that could be used as a second homework or an extension in class the next day. Enjoy!

This is a fantastic review tool to assess what students have learned in your classroom this year! This has been in my classroom as a year-end project and creates a fun presentation day when all of the games get played!

At the end of the class, I have my students write "reviews" of the games that they played, adding a personal touch. Rubric and schedule are included.
