Function Domain and Range Graphic Organizer Foldable

Created by

A square is divided into four sections that each describe how to find the domain and range when given data in four different formats (ordered pairs, a table, a diagram, and a graph). Students can fill in the blank square or you can provide the already filled in square (though I recommend filling in the blank better because you can step through the methods with the students). Or you can use the completion of this graphic organizer as a grade and use the filled in square as your rubric/key. Ea

Multiple Intelligences Graphic Organizer with New Scientist Article

This document uses the Connell Questionnaire to determine multiple intelligences and has students color in a pinwheel so they can visualize themselves as a whole learner with degrees of strengths. I strongly recommend this product ONLY be used in conjunction with the attached new science article on Intelligence which details actual scientific intelligence theory instead of this pseudoscience theory of multiple intelligences. Wikipedia contains a nice attempt at reconciling Gardner's pseudo

**UPDATE** I have corrected typos, added number of units and direction to the solution slides for transformations, and made the final challenge problem a little easier instead of using fractions since this is intended to be an introduction to the transformation and vertex form concepts. This presentaion includes warm-up for moving the monster (related to the Move the Monster presentation), goes over reflections first, then introduces axis of symmetry, vertex, and x-intercept and y-intercept (

This is the second in a series of factoring presentations that cover different ways to solve quadratic equations including using the Greatest Common Factor, Difference of Squares, the Trinomial Rule, and Slide and Divide (a way of solving quadratics when a is not equal to 1). There is also an accompanying graphic organizer available that folds with four flaps. A solution slide is included as the last slide, which is easily removed if you want to push the presentation to your students or use th

**UPDATE** I changed the tables to be in ordered pair notation. Previously, students were having trouble understanding that the tables were tables of points. **UPDATE** I added a blank, "Classify the Transformation:" so students can practice connecting words like stretch, reflect, vertical, horizontal, shift, etc. to the actions of the graph. Also, I added a blank for identifying the domain and range of each function. The first slide contains one graph of a monster (f(x)) and a table of v

A colorful, step by step, custom animated Unit Circle

The graphics are Microsoft Smart Art graphics and can be easily changed to match your school colors or presentation theme. Here, the unit circle presented as a collection of divisions in radians first by eighths, then by twelfths and then as a division in angles first by 45 degrees, then by 30 degrees. Each radian fraction flies in as a fraction over 4 so students can see how the divisions of a unit circle are 1/4, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4, 6/4, 7/4, and 8/4 and then these radians are simplified.

Cut on the solid lines, fold on the dashed lines. This creates a small foldable for students to paste in their notebooks; it covers factoring through using the Greatest Common Factor, Trinomial Rule, Trinomials when a is not equal to 1, and Difference of Squares. These are also the titles that students add to the flaps after pasting and folding. The teacher walks through examples of each method while the students copy these down in the blanks on the graphic organizer.

This foldable covers A, B, C, and D from the sine wave equation Asin(Bx-C)+D. It does not cover the debate over calculating phase shifts and stays with a simple model intended for Math Models classes.

A fabulous way to stay organized. This calendar is pre-dated from August 22, 2016 through February 18, 2018. Each page is one week, includes a wide section for the day and a workday grid in 15 minute intervals. Each week is divided with a notes page which will be on the back side of the calendar if you print double-sided. I use this with a disc-bound book and can add pages in between the weeks if needed. I use the 15 minute grid to allot time efficiently and track any overages. This calendar

This is a blank Matho (Bingo, spelled differently) board used in transparent sleeves. Students are grouped in groups of four or less and work to solve a worksheet of 24 problems (of your own creation). This would also be an excellent way to check homework. Students fill in solutions as the warm-up; each group member completes problems for homework or in class and fills in his/her row of solutions on the card. The teacher begins calling out the solutions and can also walk around to check who ha

Have students draw in their x- and y-axes in each section using the bottom of each triangle base as (0,0) (or whatever other point you determine like (0, -5) to have them practice more negative numbers). Starting in section one, students draw something and in each subsequent section, they animate it (using the transformations you have just taught them). When finished, students stick a pencil through the middle and spin it to watch their animation. For extra practice, divide students into pa

Teaching style

Mathematics for the sake of Mathematics. While I appreciate real world applications, there is a fascinating world of Mathematics that is a valid subject, in and of itself, for learning, teaching, and exploring.

My own education history

BA in Liberal Arts with minors in Psychology, Computer Science, Philosophy, and Photography because I am decisive and an MBA in Decision and Information Science, because I am also ironic.
