LearningMath

This activity has 3 tiers based on student understanding. In each tier, students are required to find the area of the shaded region applying their knowledge of multiplying and subtracting polynomials. The high and medium tiers of this activity have extension questions. The lowest tier leads the student to the concept behind finding the area of the shaded region and will then be able to complete the 2nd tier. Each tier has a rubric where students can provide feedback to their peers.

Forget the scissors and glue and let this digital activity do all the work for you! Students will solve the quadratic equations and then match the answers to the equations. They can show their work on a separate piece of paper or on a google doc. I recommend having the students use MathType as an Add On feature if you choose to have the students use google docs. You will have to download the PPT presentation to access the link.

This Around the World activity has students complete 8 problems where they solve systems of equations by substitution. The questions increase in the level of difficulty as students progress through the questions. Answers are included in the notes on each slide. You can edit this file to change the directions, if desired.
