Domain, Range, and Is it a function? Cards
This is a great activity to do once you have taught how to find the domain, range, and determining functions. I used it as a warm-up after the lesson had been taught. You give each student a set of the cards (I recommend copying them on different colors of paper, that way they aren't as easy to get mixed up). The first thing you can do is have the students seperate them into 2 columns, 1 for functions, the other for nonfunctions. Once they have them seperated, you can have them find the doma

Factoring Bingo
I used this Bingo game with my Pre-Calculus class. It was used as a review after spending time reviewing all of our factoring. It could be used for Algebra 2 and possibly an Honors Algebra 1. It was a great game and a great review!

Writing Circle Equations
I used this worksheet with my Pre-Calculus class, but it could also be used with Algebra 2. It includes 5 circle transformation problems, 3 writing equations given tangent lines, and 2 completing the square problems to find the center and radius of a circle. It is a great and short way to assess students understanding of circles and writing equations.

Teaching style
Each school that I have taught in has been considered a "low performing" school and I have always worked with students that come in lacking prior knowledge and the motivation to be successful.
I create and use a lot of activities and games that help keep my students engaged. A co-worker of mine calls me, "The Game Queen."
Awards & shining teacher moments
I was a Level 5 teacher for the 2011-2012 in Tennessee, with some of the highest scores in Algebra 2 for the school district (which included my inclusion class)
My own education history
I graduated from Juneau-Douglas High School in 1994. I attended Florida State University and earned my Bachelors degree in December 1998 for Curriculum and Instruction: Mathematics Education (6-12).
