A bundle of low prep, highly engaging, and academically relevant printable and digital interactive math notebook materials for your 6th grade curriculum? Yes... here it is! This year long bundle is a huge value for any Common Core or Texas TEKS sixth grade math classroom. How is this bundle different than others available?Each notebook set has three parts: a half page notes, interactive and often reusable practice activities, and a test prep style assessment. Most other notebook bundles offer on

Write and solve one-step equations from real world word problem solving scenarios. Thirty-two rigorous task cards have students practice writing and solving one-step equations with a variety of numbers: integers, fractions, and decimals. The numbers have been selected so that students must use the inverse operation instead of being able to automatically “see” the answer. This activity is designed to be used once students are already familiar with one-step equations and not as an introductory les

Practice integers with seven math centers that cover a range of introductory skills students need to master integer operations. Integer vocabulary, integer modeling with algebra tiles, number lines, and tables, as well as problem solving are practiced in these math centers. Each game includes student instructions and a teacher guide to help you set up your center. Each activity also includes an answer key or an example of possible student work to make grading easy.

Print your own algebra tiles manipulatives in color or black and white. With instructions on how to print these double sided, they are just like the "real thing", only cheaper! Maybe your school’s budget is all tied up and you can’t get the “real thing”, or you want to send home a set with your students, but don’t want to risk loosing your supplies. Either way, now you can print your own manipulatives any time you need another set! You will get a traditional color set as well as a black an

Learning ratios and proportions takes a lot of practice, and these differentiated task cards have 132 total questions that go with 44 real world and model scenarios. Students write ratios in word form, colon form, fraction form, and decimal form and solve proportional relationships and percent problems. Three levels of questions can be selected randomly by rolling dice or by the teacher with the differentiated dice cards to make the perfect practice for your students. The task cards can also

Introduce, practice, and assess proportional relationships with this comprehensive interactive notebook set. This set includes information on multiple representations to solve and represent proportions including patterns, physical models, ratio tables, graphing, tape diagrams, and equations. Three methods for solving equations is covered: scale factor, unit rate, and cross product equations. Two test prep style quizzes are also included to use with your students as practice or formative asses

This fun math center will help your students practice making numerical patterns based on algebraic equations or verbal expressions. Whether creating tables, sorting additive and multiplicative equations, or graphing points, you and your students will love this space themed math center! This activity is aligned to TEKS 5.4C and TEKS 5.4D! Includes three different ways to use the included cards!

Model and solve equations with variables on both sides of the equal sign using the interactive notebook activity and task cards. The task cards include 12 word problems and 8 model diagram cards. The word problems include a variety of rational numbers: fractions, decimals, and integers. The models use objects and algebra tiles. The interactive notebook materials are a simple to print and cut page for your students to use to solve a word problem in their notebook and model the solution. The

This five part lesson begins by introducing the concepts of positive and negative numbers through real world examples. Then moves into modeling using algebra tiles and number lines. The next section uses basic algebra tile modeling to introduce the concepts of integer operations. Then students apply this to word problem scenarios that require them to model the situations presented with algebra tiles. The lesson finishes with a written reflection. For best results, use this activity with stud

With two set up options, this activity is perfect for a 6th or 7th grade math class depending on your curriculum! The no-prep option also works great for a sub plan activity! This set includes: one set of additive integer word problems (9 questions)one set of mixed operation integer word problems (9 questions)one set of one-step

Practice finding constants of proportionality or scale factor using these fun, monster themed task cards. Students use the task card to create a table, find proportional patterns, and write equations. From this students also write verbal relationship statements. To provide scaffolding for students, three types of Scaffold Cards are included that students can match to the scenario in their task card. The scaffolding comes in three levels: table cards, equation cards, and written relationship

This unit has everything needed to introduce, teach, practice, and formatively assess the proportional relationships between parts, wholes, and percents. This unit comes with an interactive notebook mini-book, problem solving percent questions for additional practice, a percent strip diagram math center, scaffolding work mats, and a percent quiz.
