This activity is great in a unit comparing linear and exponential functions in Algebra 1. The first two pages are a handout and the second two are cards that may be cut out. Students can work in partners or groups to match the situation, table, equation, and graph cards. Some cards will not be used.

This is an activity to help students visually understand the patterns in the Unit Circle. They will cut out special right triangles and place these on a handout with pictures of the Unit Circle to help them find the missing angles and coordinates. Students will have a deeper understanding of patterns in the Unit Circle, which will help them remember it.

This worksheet gets students to think about what completing the square is using diagrams of algebra tiles. Students may also use algebra tiles while doing the worksheet, but it is not required.

In this activity, students take graphs (printed on transparency film) and lay them on top of graphs on their handout to visualize the solution to the system. They will also check the solution in the equations to verify it works. This works great as a partner activity at the beginning of a unit on systems.
