Blackboard Brainiacs

I use this form to help guide my students in the proper way to correct a test. I was so tired of just having students circle a new answer and try to turn it in. This form breaks it down into rewriting the problem, reworking the problem, and then checking a box to identify the mistake they made. I usually run copies on colored paper and attach it to failing test along with a due date for their corrections.

I created this foldable to teach the different types of angle pairs and relationships created by parallel lines and a transversal. Included are supplementary, vertical, corresponding, alternate interior, same side interior, and alternate exterior angles. On the back of the foldable I put a few practice problems for finding missing angle measures, including one that must be found by solving an equation with a variable on both sides. Foldable can be kept longways or folded in half. Download

Activity for finding distances on a coordinate plane using the Pythagorean Theorem. Students use the map to draw a right triangle to different distance between New York City monuments. (Distances are not actual, just made up). Most answers are not perfect squares so they will need to be rounded using a calculator or kept in radical form.

Activity that helps students write proportional equations (and find the constant of proportionality) from a table and a graph. Included is the page for students to glue down their answers, 12 graphs (2 sets per page), 12 tables (2 sets per page) and 12 equations (2 sets per page). Some negative values for k are included. Tip: I usually print out the tables, graphs, and equations in different colors. TEK 8.5A
