This is a writing assignment to get students to understand the concept of a solution to a system of linear equations. Students are asked to write a speech to the systems of equations as the solution to the system. The topic they choose to write about is up to them. It includes directions, a rubric and 2 examples.
In 6th Grade students are asked to learn a lot of new algebraic vocabulary. This is especially difficult for my ELL students. So I created this activity to get students talking about the vocabulary words using pictures to help my Spanish speaking students better connect with the words.
Students must solve each inequality, the next one always depending on their previous answer to solve the final inequality and plot the solution on a number line.
This is a lesson I use to introduce the definition of function. It is one of my students favorite lessons, and gets the students out of their seats and involved. It also comes with what I call "the easiest math worksheet you will ever do." If you want to get this activity for free check out my website: https://domathbetter.weebly.com/fun-stuff.html
Four different boards containing 16 different 2 step equations. Students must solve each equation so that when the solution is called out they can find it on their boards.
