Howe's Math Practice

This is an independent, step by step, instruction packet for students to get used to how the TI-nspire CX graphing Calculator works. Students will see the basic functions like on and off, how the 2nd functions work, square roots, fractions, decimals and so much more. Answer key included.

This is a fill in the blank style notes and independent practice for students. Students will be able to use their probability skills to set up and solve a proportion to answer questions about predictions. All probabilities are independent events. Answer key included.

This is a great review to see if students have a solid understanding of volume, total and lateral surface area. Surface area is from nets only. Shapes included rectangular and triangular prisms and pyramids. Answer key included.

This is a fill in the blank style note sheet for students along with independent practice questions. Students will be able to calculate total and lateral the surface area of rectangular pyramids, square pyramids and triangular pyramids using a net. Answer key included.

This product is a hands on activity that uses 1 inch snap cubes (you will need to supply) for students to experience the concept of surface area. Students will build a tower given a base area. Then they are to count the squares on all faces for them find surface area. Designed for them to see opposite faces are congruent and that you are adding up all the outside face areas. There is an exit ticket for students to prove what they discovered. Can use as a center or whole class activity. Ans

All activities lead to the understanding of slope, y-intercept and how to write the equation of a line in slope-intercept (y = mx + b) form. The focus is only on tables and graphs. There is a cut and paste activity to use as a summative assessment. There are fill in the blank style notes along with many examples for student practice. Answer keys included for everything.

Fill in the blank style notes along with student practice assignment. Student's will be able to write a linear equation from a table or from a graph in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b). Answer key included.

This product contains fill in the blank style notes with independent practice questions that review the topics of writing equations and inequalities, solving equations and inequalities, real number operations and multiple representations (tables, graphs and equations). Great for middle of the year assessment. Answer key included.

This is a great way to introduce the concept of slope and y-intercept. I use pattern blocks and talk about how it grows (rate of change/slope) and where you start from (y-intercept). Students color and have a visual representation. Students will also be able to take their pattern and write it as an equation, then use that equation to solve other questions. There are 5 different patterns, use some use all! Also a create your own design project included with a grading rubric. Allow students

This is a fill in the blank style notes along with student practice. Students will be able to set up and solve a proportion for an indirect measure real world problem. Answer key included.

This is a fill in the blank style note sheet with independent practice for students. Students will be able to calculate the volume of rectangular and triangular pyramids using the formula V = 1/3Bh. Answer key included.

This product is a hands on activity that uses 1 inch snap cubes (you will need to supply) for students to experience the concept of volume. Students will build a tower given a base area. Then they will build floors on top of the base area and record their findings. Designed for them to see how area of the base times the height (floors) is volume as well as volume being the total number of cubes needed to build your tower. Exit ticket included for students to show their discoveries. Can be

This is an independent instruction packet for students to get used to how the TI-nspire CX graphing Calculator creates tables and graphs. Also students are to discover how slope and y-intercepts relate to equations, graphs and tables. Answer key included.

This is an assignment of the Pythagorean Theorem. Students will be required to find the missing side of a right triangle, use the area of squares attached to the sides of the right triangle and distance on a coordinate plane. Answer key included.

Fill in the blank style notes along with student practice assignment. Student's will be able to write a linear equation from a table in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b). Answer key included.

This is a fill in the blank style note sheet along with independent practice for students. Examples are all is over of = percent over 100 style questions. Students will see when how decimal multiplication is the same a proportions and when you can't use decimal multiplication. Answer key included.

This is a 10 question assessment for calculating the circumference of a circle and the areas of circles, triangles, parallelograms, rectangles, trapezoids and composite/irregular figures. Students will use 3.14 for pi. Answer key included.

In this unit, students will be able to set up and solve a proportion, use proportions to problem solve with many different scenarios including percents, apply rates and increase their decimal operation fluency. There are fill in the blank style notes and student practice. You will also get test reviews and a unit test. Answer keys included to all. Great resource for reteach or RTI for the upper grade levels. Great enrichment for lower grade levels.

This unit contains fill in the blank style notes along with student practice. This product is designed to reinforce decimal operations, calculating a unit rate and finding the percent of a number by decimal multiplication. Can be used as direct teach or RTI (response to intervention). There are 2 projects included as well. One where students are creating their own questions on poster paper. The second where students are completing a video on an assigned question. Grading rubric included an

This is a unit full of fill in the blank style notes with student independent practice. There is a unit review along with a formal assessment. Students will be able to set up and solve proportions for a set of similar figures, relate corresponding sides and apply to real life. Answer keys included.
