Maybe it is time for something different. Try these cartoon notes! This set of notes answer the following questions: 1) How do you find the slope of a line from a set of coordinates or from a graph? 2) Is the slope positive, negative, zero or undefined? 3) What are the different forms of equations? (Slope-I

Are your students sick of reading the text book? Do their eyes glaze over when you hand them a typed worksheet? Grab their attention and help them study with these hand-drawn notes. Let's face it, reading a math book is not fun. It can be a tedious task for many students and as a result they simply give up. These notes are straightforward and to the point using basic vocabulary that anyone can understand. They are printable and students could even color the characters like a coloring book

Systems of Equations can be an overwhelming chapter for many students. These notes were created to give simple, straight-forward examples about each "Systems of Equations" method. Methods included: graphing, substitution, elimination. Examples include problems with one solutions, infinitely many solutions and no solutions. This study guide looks best when printed in color.

Are your students having trouble converting linear equations back into Standard Form? Are you running out of problems to do with your students? This study guide includes 25 problems and step by step directions for converting them into standard form. (Ax + By = C) Most importantly, I have included a key with each problem written out with all of the work and notes/hints. I always like to copy an answer key for my students the day after I assign the work so that they can see what they are doing

Tired of typing up notes for your students only to find that they are not reading them? Are you students refusing to take advantage of the millions of online resources that are available?

This set of notes introduces the distance formula and relates it to the Pythagorean Theorem. There are 10 pages of explanations, cartoon characters and examples

This quick reference sheet will provide students with concise notes about how to take an equation and write another equation that is perpendicular to it. The example given in the notes is: "Find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to 2x +3y = 6 and passes through (5, 2). Put your answer in slope-intercept form.” This one page note sheet provides simple step-by-step directions that students could use to complete their homework and study for quizzes.
