Manipulating Math Minds

This file contains 78 word wall posters that depict Junior High Math vacabulary for the whole year. Great back to school resource. The poster set includes: Acute angles Addition words Additive inverse * Area Bar graph Bases Box and whisker Circle/diameter/radius Combine like terms * Complementary angles Compound probability Congruent figures Coordinate grid * Cross multiply Dilation Dimension changes Discount and sales tax Distribution * Division words * Equals words * Even numbers Histo

Solving equations is a skill that has to be mastered for students to perform basic algebraic operations in later years. While it seems so logical to me, my students often struggled with what steps are to be taken first (+, -, x, ÷), even though it is just order of operations…in reverse. A few years ago, I started using “Equation Estates” to teach this, and the confusion no longer exists. We even had a little fun along the way! I teach JH, and they can TOTALLY relate to this set up!

This file contains 34 cards that "I have, who has" cards that are to be distributed to students. Hopefully 34 is more than you will need during any one class! It is a looping set, meaning that the last solution "answers" the first card. This version is addition and subtraction of integers only. This is a great way to review before moving on to multiplication and dvision of integers. Enjoy! Integers, TEKS, Core Standards, Test Prep, Review, Activity, Game, Fun,

My students ALWAYS cringe when they hear me say the word “fractions”. But that is not necessary if they can learn to use a 12 x 12 or 15 x 15 multiplication chart to work “Magic”. In this zipped file you will get a complete lesson for simplifying fractions (one lesson that is in a complete bundle I have listed for sale) by using a completed multiplication chart. It includes the following: • 12 x 12 multiplication chart for students to complete (and key). • 15 x 15 multiplication chart for s

This file contains an editable PowerPoint Bingo game, a reproducable blank Bingo card to be printed for each student, and the solution to the game.This game reviews basic understanding of integer rules. Problems in the file include all four operations, as well as four real world applications that must be set up then evaluated. This is a great way to review at the end of an integer unit, or before state testing. STAAR, TEKS, Integers, Core Standards, Test Prep, Review, Activity, Game, Fun

My students ALWAYS cringe when they hear me say the word “fractions”. But that is not necessary if they can learn to use a 12 x 12 or 15 x 15 multiplication chart to work “Magic”. In this file you are getting a full week’s worth of activities on fraction operations (Simplifying, Adding, Subtracting, Multiplying, and Dividing): • 12 x 12 multiplication chart for students to complete (and key). • 15 x 15 multiplication chart for students to complete (and key). This is used for higher grades

This file contains a set of 60 matching cards (30 expressions and 30 solutions) that review multiplication and division of integers. Each sheet has 6 expression cards, followed by the corresponding solution cards. You may choose to make multiple sets and have groups work with all 60 at once. Or, you can prepare fewer sets, and place 1 to 2 sheets worth of cards at stations and have students rotate. I have also included a worksheet for students to document their work, as well as a solution
