Love Teaching Math

I printed this, poster sized, and used it as an anchor chart after students discovered the pythagorean theorem. I also printed regular sized and used for stations, workshops, review, and interactive notebooks.

I print this poster size and use this as an anchor chart in my classroom as we are learning about Volume and Surface area of 3 dimensional figures. I also have regular copies for stations and review activities.

This is a basic number sort for the real number system for 8th grade math. I use this is my classroom as a station, entry ticket, and as state test prep while we are learning about or reviewing the real number system. I print it on our poster printer and laminated it and the cards. This could easily be adjusted to fit on to a normal sheet of paper or even used as a file folder activity. Hope you enjoy :)

These are a lot more than just Notebook Tabs. This includes everything you need to get each unit kick started for the entire year!!! Each tab includes the following for the entire unit: TEKS for the unit, learner tracking tool for the students to track their own results, academic vocabulary related to the unit, a RAFT writing activity, and, of course, the unit tab.

This project is a fun engaging way for students to collect their own data and learn about Theoretical and Experimental Probability through self discovery and group learning. This packet included project directions, extensions, and worksheet assessments for both theoretical and experimental probability. You will need a fidget spinner for each group, but many students already have one they can bring to use. My students had a blast with it this year, and I hope yours will too!

I created this one/two day project, depending on your class time, to be fun way to learn or review Mean Absolute Deviation. When the fidget craze came to our school I decided...If you cant beat them, join them! The kids were active and engaged through out the entire project. This activity focuses the following TEKS – 8.1F-G (Process standards) – 8.11B (MAD) Special Note: You will need a spinner and a timer for each group. I bought a set of 5 for the class, but many kids brought their own too.
