Help your students strengthen their understanding of degree and number of terms in a polynomial by playing "Go Fish!". This group activity uses polynomials with both one variable and multiple variables. It contains monomials, binomials and trinomials of degree zero up to 5.

Introduce or review negative exponents using this "I Have Who Has" whole class activity. This is a great resource to use at the beginning of an exponential functions unit. Increase students' mental math and deepen their understaning of exponent rules.

Students practice arithmetic and geometric sequences by participating in a classroom "I have, who has" activity. Students practice calculating the common different and common ratio, writing the explicit rule for both an arithmetic and geometric sequence as well as writing the first four terms in a sequence given a rule. *This activity can also be completed individually or in small groups.

In this lesson students answer an 8 question multiple choice worksheet that encompasses domain, range, vertex, absolute min/max, axis of symmetry, intercepts and transformations. As students answer the questions, they will draw a picture of a house, using the provided guide. If students answer the questions correctly, all the houses should look the same. Note: The drawing a house portion of this resource can be used with any multiple choice worksheet!

This classwide activity allows students to practice geometry vocabulary including line, plane, parallel, angle, vertex, similar figures, perimeter, segment, ray, perpendicular, congruent, acute, obtuse, volume and area. This activity includes a version with vocabulary descriptions in words and a separate version with images instead of words.

Have your students draw a MATH-terpiece while they work on a teacher generated worksheet. Make practice and review exciting! Students answer multiple choice questions and draw features on their person depending on what answer choice they choose. A picture of what the final product should look like is provided.
