I have been teaching middle school math for 18 years. I taught many years using Engage NY, so the rigor is very high and I would use lots of interactive notebook entries to help scaffold. When classroom teaching I specialized in interactive notebook entries to support learning, and fun ways for scholars to practice their skills. I am now a math interventionist and focus on creating work to target specific misconceptions and struggles, while keeping things fun.
This is a long division foldable entry for an Interactive Notebook, we use this in the 5th and 6th grade. Product includes foldable created and ready to print, and photos as an exemplar as your own. There is an Excel version, and a Microsoft Word version, the Microsoft Word version prints better 2-sided if you are printing from a computer (vs. 2 sided printing at the copier)
The memory match game has 32 cards, 16 number line representations of inequalities, and their matching inequality. Your purchase comes with 2 sets of directions that can make the memory game easier or harder to complete, along with a key for the teacher, and a work space for scholars to record their work, work space can be handed in and checked, we sometimes use our work area as our exit ticket. TEACHER INFORMATION for MEMORY MATCH The solutions are listed next to the problems, which means it is
Your purchase comes with the rubric and checklist pictured above, I had scholars get their checklist signed after each part, when all signatures were collected they were given their poster paper. This project allows scholars to come up with their own statistical question, collect data from their peers, and then prepare a poster to summarize their data. The poster includes the data set, measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode, & range), line plots, histograms, box & whisker plots.The pic

Your purchase comes with a "suspect list", 6 long division with decimals problems, and a table of quotients that are tied with a clue (along with clues that are not correct to go with incorrect quotients). Suspects are a variety of characters, from Nicolas Cage, to Beyonce, to Bruce Wayne, everything is editable to fit your class. Scholars will solve division problems, their quotients are listed on a table (along with some quotients that are not correct). Scholars find their quotient, and read
This purchase will provide 3 pages, each problem takes a page. Each problem has a real world situation, a ratio table for scholars to fill out, a place for them to show their coordinate pairs, and a graph.
Your purchase comes with 4 items: 1. A blank Venn diagram for scholars to take notes on 2. A Venn diagram with the figures included 3. A Venn diagram with the figures included, and the figures include their mathematical marks (tic marks, right angle indicators, etc) 4. A sheet with a variety of quadrilaterals, that can be used in conjunction with the blank Venn diagram as a cut and paste activity.
This is a foldable that we used as an interactive notebook entry for adding and subtracting decimals. This is taught in the 5th and 6th grade. Product includes foldable with steps, and photos as an exemplar for your own.
Your purchase comes with the document to create the interactive notebook included above, including the rectangular prism laid out on graph paper. My scholars have really enjoyed the "Smiley Face Method" of finding surface area.
Your purchase comes with everything you need to save the teacher! Your scholars will get 8 problems on Volume of a rectangular prism with fractional side lengths. Each problem's answer has a clue, and scholars can use their clues to narrow down the suspect list. If everything goes right, at the end of the 8 problems they should know who kidnapped their teacher! There are 2 different sets (same questions, clues, and suspect lists) with 2 different perpetrators, I did this to leave as sub plans so

Constructed responses for assessments have become a key lever, ACE stands for Answer, Computation, Explanation.
Your purchase comes with the graphic organizer for scholars to complete their ACE responses, a rubric for grading, a graphic on transition/sequential words (with sentence starters for differentiation) to support their explanation, and a workshop lesson that includes an "I do, We do, You do" graphic organizer with fun problems (Batman, Jurassic Park, & Stranger Things word problems) i
Your document comes with 24 word problems that scholars can write as algebraic expressions. Document is easy to edit so you can include names of your scholars.
This assignment allows scholars to practice different coordinate graph skills. For the first part scholars plot points on the coordinate plane and find the length of the segment created by the points. All points make horizontal and vertical lines, but I included diagonal lines so my challenge group could use the Pythagorean Theorem to find their length for differentiation (easy to delete if you do not want the challenge problems). We also found the perimeter and area of the rectangles for extra
Your purchase comes with the 2 interactive notebook foldables pictured above; the document comes with photos of the completed foldables to use as a key. The inside of the foldable provides directions for converting mixed #s to improper fractions, and converting improper fractions to mixed #s as a quick review. Document is easy to edit to make changes. You can buy JUST the adding Mixed #s foldable here: Adding FoldableYou can buy JUST the subtracting Mixed #s foldable here: Subtracting Foldabl
Your purchase comes with the Interactive Notebook Entries (2) pictured above, a homework assignment with 16 practice problems, and an Exit Ticket with 4 problems.
The first page is a visual way for scholars to understand why 1 > 0.1 > 0.01, and relates the models to fractions, decimals, and money.
The second page allows scholar to write a decimal from words, model the decimals, and compare.
Your purchase comes with the document pictured above. Scholars have 2 shopping trips to complete, a splurge trip where they can buy electronics and goodies, and a fantasy meal where they shop for food. Scholars are given a budget and compete to get as close to their limit as possible. 1. Scholars go shopping, and find their total 2. Scholars have a coupon they subtract from their total (they can go shopping again if they have extra money now) 3. Scholars must factor in tax. If scholars are over
This is a puzzle for scholars to practice dividing decimals. Directions: 1. Scholars cut out the 16 puzzle pieces, which include 19 long division problems involving decimals. 2. Scholars match the expressions up to the proper quotient (example in thumbnails), if they cannot find the quotient they have made an error. 3. Scholars should glue the pieces down at the end, I would not let them do it as they work as some problems match on 3 sides (not all quotients will be used). 4. I had scholars mak
