Party Planning!! Linear Equation Project

This is a FUN linear equation project where students plan a Promotion Party!! Students plan the party and then make a poster presentation to share with class!!

Jeopardy Template-8th Grade Standards

I use this as one of the options for a final review project for my 8th grade math class. I print front/back. Students work in pairs to fill the jeopardy template with questions and answers.

Experience

Teaching is a second career for me and I have been teaching middle school math and algebra for 5 years. I have also done long-term substitute positions in other math subjects and tutored for over 20 years.

Teaching style

I am a math enthusiast(not to be confused with a math nerd) and love to keep my students engaged with a variety of activities(movement, games, videos, projects, etc) to keep students learning!! I want my students to develop a love of learning and feel successful in the classroom!!! I have a deep understanding of mathematical concepts and work hard to share my knowledge with fun, effective strategies. I also use a variety of teaching styles to reach every student in a diverse classroom!!

My own education history

I have a degree in Mathematics from Arizona State University and then became certified to teach secondary math in order to share my LOVE of math. I continue my education through workshops whenever possible!!

Additional biographical information

I have spent years tutoring students from 3rd grade through Calculus. I absolutely LOVE math and LOVE sharing my excitement with students.
