Finding the distance between two points on the coordinate plane can be intimidating if their is no coordinate plane. This guided notes and independent practice packet contains everything you need to teach your students about absolute value so they will be successful in finding the distance between two or more points when they are only given the coordinates. This packet will also help them understand if the given points make a vertical or a horizontal line. If you're looking for RIGOR then look n

This activity is designed so students can investigate how to find the area of regular polygons. Once they discover how to find the area of the regular polygons the students will have to apply the their knowledge to a real world situation. The rigor is definitely here in this product. It also includes an independent practice sheet.

Students will solve 8 area problems that correspond with the common core standard 6.G.1 and then color a picture that corresponds to the answer. Students will have to find the area of parallelograms and triangles by having to differentiate between the shapes side and height which is something most students confuse. Students will also have to find the missing base or height when given the area of a shape. The students will have fun while practicing some important math foundational skills.

THIS WAS SOOOOO FUN!! If you are studying surface area and nets of 3D objects then this is the perfect project for you!! This project comes complete with notes on how to transform your classroom into the perfect science lab. Specimen (3D) objects have come in and need new skin grafts (net of the 3D figure). Students will have to identify *vertices* *edges* *bases* *faces* this will help them to identify if the "specimen" is a prism or a pyramid. comes with - Dr.D's Lecture Lab (notes) -Dissectio
