Students simply leave the field they wish to solve for blank. I know how difficult it can be to get a good TVM solver into the hands of your students when they are working from home on a variety of devices.

Colouring by Algebra - Linear Equations Pumpkin (15 worksheets)
I made this as a summative task for my small MFM1P class. Since my class is small, students can work in pairs on one sheet, then try a second independently. (Larger classes could make two pumpkins and have a colouring contest :) These whole-class colouring mosaics are quite engaging, and a good way to get even the most reluctant students to complete their homework (since the success of the picture hinges on each individual's contribution!).

About the store
Experience
I've been a high school math educator since 2008, teaching all grades 9 through 12, and all levels from university and college bound to essentials/workplace to special needs learners. My products and ideas have been gilded by the frontlines of my own classroom experience. I'm always looking for an innovative way to teach the subject I love!
Teaching style
Whenever possible, math should be driven by engaging problems that pull students into the concepts and skills I seek to teach. 'Fruitfully frustrated' is a good place to be :)
I enjoy writing and performing math raps (youtube CalfordMath), integrating Geometer's Sketchpad to bring dynamic understanding, gamifying learning (see my product 'Algebra Tile Factris'), and generally pushing creative limits to make math concepts accessible to my students.
I am aware of students' math stigmas and horror stories. I try to build on their natural math intuitions, sidestepping their perceived inability to 'do math' because they never won a class game of around-the-world with multiplication flash cards in grade 4.

Additional biographical information
I'm an avid recreational chess player. I enjoy music, skateboarding, longboarding, rapping, programming (see my product 'Algebra Tile Factirs' for a computer game example, or my 'Colouring by...' products for an automated worksheet product), and doing math for fun (total geek).
