Simplifying Radicals w/ QR Code Self-Check

This activity is a great practice for simplifying radicals with negative radicands. Students complete the 8 problems as task cards, showing their work on the included response sheet, and check their own work by scanning the QR code associated with their answer to get immediate feedback. All radicands are negative, some are perfect squares but most require simplification.

Function Transformation Autumn Leaf Pennants

A fun autumn activity for students to practice working with function transformations - writing equations, graphing, and describing. Includes the following function families: quadratic, square root, absolute value, exponential, inverse variation, and cubic. 30 different leaf-shaped pennants are included each with either an equation, graph, or description with room for the student to come up with the other two. You could easily implement this as a warm up or exit ticket by giving each student o

Quadratic Word Problems - Beyond the Falling Object

This product includes 12 application problems that can be solved using quadratic equations - and not a single one of them is projectile motion! These problems include area of triangles, rectangles, and circles, Pythagorean theorem, volume, and consecutive integers. These questions can be used in worksheet format or as task cards. A full answer key is provided.

Experience

I have taught Math 1, Math 2, Honors Math 2, Algebra 2, Foundations of Math 1, Foundations of Math 2, and Honors Discrete Math over my 8 years of teaching.

Teaching style

I'm working on finding a balance between "new" research methods that suggest more activities, more collaboration, more hands-on methods are best and the age-old approach of just good-ol practice. I think it's important to keep students interested, but I honestly believe one of the best ways to get better at math is to practice, practice, practice. With that in mind, I like to use task cards, stations, games, etc. to keep kids practicing without losing their minds looking at another black-n-white worksheet.

Awards & shining teacher moments

National Board Certification in AYA Mathematics.

My own education history

I am a National Board Certified teacher with a B.S. in Mathematics Education 9-12 from UNC-Pembroke and an M.A. in Mathematics Education 5-12 from Western Governor's University.

Additional biographical information

When I'm not doing math, I'm at home keeping my own two kiddos occupied. When they're in bed I like to research more school stuff (Yes, I'm one of those people!), but I also like to do all manner of crafty things and read.
