Manipulating Math Minds

This file includes all you need for a fun filled day of interpreting Algebraic functions in multiple ways: 12 sheets of matching cards (4 sections per sheet), work packet, and solution key. The activity is designed to have students work in groups and OUT OF THEIR SEATS! There are 12 graph matching cards that will be divided into groups of four cards per station. Students will be divided into groups of three or four. First students will look at the 16 card sections at their assigned table and mat

This file contains two versions of a Formula Chart Activity to familiarize students with the formulas and measurements listed on the 7th grade Math STAAR Reference Materials formula chart. This can be an individual activity or completed with a partner. Version 1 - Students will cut apart a scrambled puzzle sheet and glue them onto a blank 4 x 4 square template. The numbered squares make it easy to check for accuracy. Version 2 - The 4 x 5 sheet needs to be printed on cardstock, laminated, an

This set of task cards provides all you need for a full hour of fun. The activity is designed to have students work in groups and OUT OF THEIR SEATS! It contains 32 question cards and 4 Bonus cards (Kaboom, lose a turn, steal a card, & a bonus turn), a coordinating answer worksheet, and a solution key. My student are VERY competitive and LOVE playing with the Bonus cards as described below. Option 1: Each team/group will work on one card and complete the appropriate section, then swap for a n

This file contains 2 interest foldables (that are sold in other bundles in my store). One is simple interest using the formula I = PRT. The second is compound interest using the formula A = P(1+r)^t. And as always, I have included both solution keys. Together, they serve as a nice introduction to interest including vocabulary, proper use of the formulas and problems that require students to calculate just interest as well as ending account balances. These would pair well with the self-chec

Spring is an awesome time of year, and when I usually teach my financial literacy unit. So why not make a few worksheets that combine the two? This file contains 2 self check interest worksheets(that are sold in other bundles in my store). One is simple interest using the formula I = PRT. The second is compound interest using the formula A = P(1+r)^t. And as always, I have included both solution keys. Together, they serve as a nice introduction to interest, as well as an appropriately timed

This file contains 2 simple interest components (that are sold in other bundles in my store). One is a foldable to guide the students through using the formula I=PRT. The second is a self checking riddle WS that covers the same topic. And as always, I have included both solution keys. Together, they serve as a nice introduction to simple interest including vocabulary, proper use of the formula and problems that require students to calculate just interest as well as ending account balances.
