In this activity students navigate through a monster filled maze, solving quadratic equations to reveal the right path. If they get the wrong answer, the next solution will feed them to a monster! To complete the maze, students need to solve 8 quadratics correctly using the quadratic formula or by completing the square. There are two versions of this activity—one with decimal answers and one with simplified radical answers. Directions: Just print and go! If you want, have students color in th

In this activity students navigate through a monster filled maze, solving order of operations problems to reveal the right path. If they get the wrong answer, the next solution will feed them to a monster! To complete the maze, students need to solve 10 problems correctly. Directions: Just print and go! If you want, have students color in their path along the way. This works well as a classwork or homework activity, and the answer choices let students check their work along the way. If stud

In this activity, students solve multi-step inequalities. Once they solve each equation, they find their answer in the answer bank. Each correct answer unlocks a new word that helps them complete a crazy sentence (much like Mad Libs®). If they get the right crazy sentence, you know they did it right! Directions: Just print and share! This works great as a classwork or homework activity, and the answer bank lets students check their own along the way. Students also love the crazy sentences!

This resource includes multi-part word problems that focus on using a quadratic model to analyze questions in context. In each of these problems, students calculate and interpret key features of quadratic functions (axis of symmetry, vertex, y-intercept, x-intercepts) based on a real world context. They can factor for the first problem, but will need the quadratic formula for the second two. There are three total problems, and the data for each is genuine! Good to know* You can use each probl

In this activity, students practice graphing systems of inequalities as they trap a herd of crazy cows. If the systems trap all the cows, they’ll know they’re on track! This activity brings a welcome element of fun to graphing systems of inequalities. Directions: Just print and go! This works well in class or at home!

In this activity, students factor quadratic expressions with a leading coefficient of one. Once they factor each quadratic, they find their answer in the answer bank. Each correct answer unlocks a new word that helps them complete a crazy sentence (much like Mad Libs®). If they get the right crazy sentence, you know they did it right! Directions: Just print and share! This works great as a classwork or homework activity, and the answer bank lets students check their own along the way. Stud

In this activity students navigate through a monster filled maze, solving two-step equations to reveal the right path. If they get the wrong answer, the next solution will feed them to a monster! To complete the maze, students need to solve 10 problems correctly. Directions: Just print and go! If you want, have students color in their path along the way. This works well as a classwork or homework activity, and the answer choices let students check their work along the way. If students finish ea

In this activity, students practice graphing lines as they bust restless ghosts. If each line busts exactly one ghost, they’ll know they’re on track!

If you want, have students color in their path along the way. This works well as a classwork or homework activity, and the answer choices let students check their work along the way. If students

In this activity students work in pairs to complete a sequence of problems. Partner A and Partner B have different questions, but the answers they'll get will be the same. If Partner A and Partner B both get the same answer for problem one, they’ll know they got that one right! If students get different answers, they can swap papers to see if they can figure out the mistake. This lets each student check their work and support each other, while giving them both the motivation to complete each pro

In this card sort, students match each quadratic equation with its equivalent forms. Through this activity, they'll practice converting quadratic functions between standard, factored, and vertex form. Every equation has two matches, so they'll end up with 8 groups of 3 equivalent equations. A full answer key is included! This works very easily as an individual or group activity, with or without cutting! Includes 3 pages Page 1 - 24 ready-to-go quadratic equations (8 standard, 8 factored, 8 ver

In this activity, students calculate key features of quadratic functions (axis of symmetry, vertex, y-intercept) and graph their parabolas. The activity includes six full quadratics, each of which have four key features (AOS, vertex, y-intercept, and f(x)). Students find each key feature, then look for their answer in the answer bank for that problem. Each correct answer unlocks a new letter they’ll use to spell a hidden word. For example, the first problem unlocks (M, S, E, S, which they’ll

In this activity, students practice graphing parabolas as they zap eleven crazy sheep gone wild. If each parabola zaps at least two sheep, they’ll know they’re on track! This activity brings a welcome element of fun to graphing parabolas. All roots and vertices are integers. Directions: Just print and go! This works well in class or at home!

In this activity, students explore a professional athlete’s performance time. They’ll explore this question through real data for one athlete—Aaron Rogers, the quarterback for the Green Bay Packers. Is he getting better and better? Did he get better and level off? Or did he hit a peak and start heading downhill? ObjectiveIn this activity, students calculate key features of quadratic functions (axis of symmetry, vertex, y-intercept, x-intercepts), graph parabolas, and analyze their model in t

In this card sort, students match each linear equation with its equivalent forms. Through this activity, they'll practice converting linear functions between slope-intercept form, point-slope form, standard form, and two points. Every equation has three matches, so they'll end up with 8 groups of 4 equivalent equations. A full answer key is included! This works very easily as an individual or group activity, with or without cutting! Includes 3 pages Page 1 - 32 ready-to-go linear equations (

In this activity, students solve quadratics by factoring. Students work in groups of 2-4. Each student has a different set of 8 quadratics to factor, but each of their answers will match one of the answers from another student. For example, the roots for Student B will match one root from Student A and one root from Student C. If students get different answers, they can swap papers to see if they can figure out the mistake. This lets each student check their work and support each other, whil
