Great review for a final exam, test exam or review day. Have students work in partners or small groups. In different places around the room, place fishbowls (containers). Cut out the review questions below and place them into the fishbowls. If you are planning for 5 groups, you should print out 5 pages. To play this review, have each student pull out a card. Let them think for 1 minute independently without talking about what they are going to say. Then, give two minutes for students to tal

This pack of notes includes bell ringers, notes, guided practice and independent practice. It covers all main types of factoring, including GCF, trinomials, trinomials a > 1 and difference of squares. It includes 10 pages of information, which should last about 6 days in the classroom.

This year end review is a great activity for Algebra I. It includes a variety of different topics that will allow you to assess student learning and get students up and moving. It contains questions about functions, domain and range, linear equations, slope (rate of change) and more.

This fun activity is a great way to review factoring with students. It contains different factoring topics, like GCF, trinomials, and difference of squares. It is a two sided paper that is used as a traditional scavenger hunt around the room. Simply print two sided and hang up. The accompanying answer key makes grading a breeze.
