Basic notes for teaching or re-teaching about the for basic properties of equality. There are opportunities for guided practice along with a worksheet on solving one-step equations and another worksheet with two-step equations. There is a bonus of the one-step equations worksheet that is Christmas-themed with some coloring opportunities for students. What's included: Properties of Equality NotesOne-Step Equations WorksheetOne-Step Equations Word Problems SheetTwo-Step Equations WorksheetTwo-Ste

I handmade this worksheet to use in my Algebra classes. I could not find any simple worksheets to help students identify the differences between horizontal and vertical translations and their algebraic forms. I also cut one up and wrote out the 4 different types of translations on the board and had students volunteer to give the answers and then tape the graphs where they are supposed to go.

I created this for my Algebra 1 classes. I did not have a good way of practicing and showing them about increasing and decreasing intervals, positive and negative, and end behavior so I created this to use with my classes. Students will need two different color highlighter because they will highlight where the graph is positive and negative. They will circle where the graph is increasing, trace over where it's decreasing and also describe the end behavior of each function.

NOTE: You must have the Angle Legs set to use with this worksheet (I use the Hand 2 Mind brand item# 75662) I needed my students to have an activity to figure out what types of lengths could and could not create a triangle, but I also wanted it to be quick and organized. The instructions are on the sheet, students work with a partner and get a set of the Angle Legs, all the possible combinations are also given to the students to make this a quick and effective activity. Students check the com

I use this after introducing chords, secants, tangents, centers, radius, diameter and point of tangency to students just to make sure they understand the difference. Really quick and easy way to make sure students understand each and an opportunity to talk about the difference between radius and diameter and even chord and secant since those are those most commonly mistaken for each other.

This is just 6 simple questions about creating and interpreting equations based on benchmark MA.912.AR.1.1. This could be used as an exit ticket, in class assignment, homework, quiz, warm up, or other form of formative assessment.

I dislike teaching solely the exponent rules themselves without going over WHY the exponent rules are what they are. I like to show patterns in exponents for students to discover for themselves what the zero power and negative power rules are. I also like to have them expand out exponents for the product and quotient rule so that they can come to the conclusion what the rule is. These four rules, if the students fully understand them are really the only rules they NEED to know. The power of a p

I made this as an exploration activity for my bottom quartile students. I needed something that was interactive and allows them to make conclusions on their own but simple enough to not overwhelm them. Students need: rule and protractor Students start with a triangle and they are asked to find the measure of the side lengths and angle measures and then look at the placement of the shortest side and smallest angle, then the longest side and largest angle and make a conclusion about the relations

How I use this in my geometry class: I go over the lesson with the students and then put "Defined" and "Undefined" on my board or wallI give out: point, line, plane, ray, and line segment to various students and ask them to place them under the correct name.Next I give out the sample pictures to another set of students and ask them to place them under the vocabulary word the go with.Continue with the definitionsFinish with the namesAfter class I move these to our actual word wall and keep up for

This is an activity that allows students to cut out different shapes and fold them to find the different lines of symmetry that each shape has. There are nine shapes total. This can be done as an individual activity, a partner activity, or a group activity. There is a worksheet included that students can write the number of lines of symmetry each shape has, but you can also do other methods. Personally, in my classroom I let the students work in small groups and I have the shapes posted on the

I use this activity in my Algebra 1 class in Florida as this is now a benchmark/standard that has to be covered under the BEST benchmarks. This could also be used in a statistics class.

Identifying linear transformations by writing f(x)+k, f(x)-k, f(x+k), or f(x-k). Answer key included

Two pages of notes on identifying a hypothesis and conclusion, and writing the inverse, converse, and contrapositive statements with included questions that can be used for guided practice. There is also a worksheet with 7 questions on writing the inverse, converse and contrapositive statements. Florida BEST Standard covered: - MA.912.LT.4.3: Identify and accurately interpret “if…then,” “if and only if,” “all” and “not” statements. Find the converse, inverse and contrapositive of a statement.

This is a 5 question worksheet that allows students to practice writing linear equations based on word problems, identify constant in slope-intercept form, and solve equations based on real-life problems.

Basic notes for teaching or re-teaching about the for basic properties of equality. There are opportunities for guided practice along with a worksheet on solving one-step equations and another worksheet with two-step equations. There are also some guided practice notes for solving equations with variables on both sides along with a practice sheet for that and a practice sheet for solving multi-step equations. As a whole, this could be taught over the course of approximately one week. What's incl

**IMPORTANT** YOU MUST HAVE TRACING PAPER, PATTY PAPER, OR SOMETHING SIMILAR FOR THIS ACTIVITY!!!! I created this discovery activity to use in my high school Geometry classes. I found that students struggled with memorizing the rules for rotations, so with this discovery activity they are able to see the actual rotation happening of a single coordinate around the origin and come up with the rules on their own. Topics Addressed: - Rotation is a rigid motion - Clockwise and counterclockwise - Rota

Lesson plan with a basic outline, notes with opportunities for guided practice, and an entire extra worksheet with 10 practice problems on it. Can be used to teach for the first time, or as a refresher.

If you want to teach orthocenters and centroids quickly, but using a compass and straightedge then this is for you. Need: Ruler Starts with students finding the midpoint of each triangle side and connecting it to their opposite vertex and seeing where they intersect to make the centroid, then they measure the segments to make a connection about the lengths. For the orthocenter, students just make perpendicular lines from sides of the triangle to the opposite vertex. There is nothing else for th

If you want to teach incenters quickly, but using a compass and straightedge then this is for you. Need: Compass and ruler Starts with students attempting to draw the biggest circle they can on the inside of a triangle. Then you lead them through constructing the angle bisectors to find where the center is and what the radius should be. Second page has them measure the segment distance from the center to each side of the triangle and write a conclusion about what they notice about those distan

If you want to teach circumcenters quickly, but using a compass and straightedge then this is for you. Need: Compass and ruler Starts with students attempting to draw the smallest circle they can around the outside of a triangle. Then you lead them through constructing the perpendicular bisectors to find where the center is and what the radius should be. (No instructions on perpendicular bisectors, it is previous knowledge for this activity) Second page has them measure the distance from the ce
