Literal Equations put the fun in Functions! 16 problems and one bonus problem for students learning how to solve equations for specific variables. For the low, low price of whatever it says over on the right there, you get: -The 16 +1 problems riddle-sheet -The same 16 problems in a regular sheet form. -The riddle sheet key -The regular sheet key with the problems worked-out. I looked all over for a good literal equation sheet but couldn't find it. My students love riddle sheets, so I hope yo

When my students were working with solving first level equations, I started to make these problems to help them see a more concrete model next to the symbolic algebra. Eventually, it became this: A unit that moves students from the concrete to the abstract in careful steps. You get: Part 1: Basic equations to variables on both sides Part 2: The Distributive Property Part 3: Substitution property for systems I tended to avoid dealing with negative numbers where I could, as that comes in at

While we love us some project-based learning in my Algebra class, getting skill practice in remains a priority and we always look for ways to make it as fun as we can. Because my students love 3 things: bad jokes, linear systems and not that second thing, we do our best to combine them and now you can see the result! What you get: -A colorful title page that makes a handsome objet d'Art worthy of framing (provided that you have a broad sense of what constitutes art). -A bad joke, solve linear s

Moving from point-slope to slope intercept to standard forms has never been so, well, so not boring! 16 problems for students learning how to do just that. For the incomprehensibly low, low price of whatever it says over on the right there, you get: -The 16 problems one-liner sheet -The same 16 problems in a regular sheet form with space for showing work -The one-liner sheet key -The regular sheet key with the solutions worked-out. I've been starting to create these for the more obscure topics

Here's a simple, two-page explanation and chart I created to help students understand Distance-Rate-Time problems. These are for your classic, "two trains leave Chicago,"type questions covering: -two vehicles traveling towards each other, when do the meet? -two vehicles traveling in the same direction, when does one overtake the other? Students use this, along with their notes, to deconstruct the problems. Have fun! Hey you! Yes You! Need a better way to introduce equations? Here's a whole

Like like terms? Then do distribute these to your students! Have fun with this practice riddle that focuses on expanding distributed terms and then combining like terms. There are 16 problems and lots of focus on distributing negatives. For the low, low price of whatever it says over on the right there, you get: -The 16 problems riddle-sheet -The same 16 problems in a regular sheet form. -The riddle sheet key -The regular sheet key with the problems worked-out. I wanted something that give

So, at some point or another, we've all learned how to divide a fraction. However, many of us barely remember it, while some might remember that it has something to do with "flip & multiply." What if we focused on why we do what we do when we divide fractions? That's what this video is meant to do. Suitable for kids & adults, it shows you not only how to divide fractions, but what's really going on when we perform the algorithm. Enjoy!

I built this Excel document to show what happens to lines and tables when you change variables and constants within an equations. There are three sheets: y = mx+b ax^2 + bx +c =0 c = p(1-r)^t For instance, on the linear equation sheet, you can change m & b separately to see changes in the table and the graph. You can trace all equations. Much fun can be had.
