Manipulating Math Minds

This file contains all you need for a fun filled class period calculating perimeter, circumference and area of geometric figures including squares, rectangles, triangle, trapezoids, parallelograms, and circles. It is a multiple step hands on activity in which students will determine the appropriate formulas provided a given shape either from memory or a formula chart. Then, they will calculate the perimeter, circumference, or area. Once they have done the calculations, they will cut out the

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

This file contains all you need for a fun filled class period reviewing volume of geometric figures including prisms, cubes, and pyramids It is a multiple step hands on activity in which students will determine the appropriate formulas provided a given shape either from memory or a formula chart. Then, they will calculate the volume. Once they have done the calculations, they will cut out the 9 shapes with the completed formulas and glue them to the correct solution on the template. This

This file contains all you need for a fun filled class period surface area and volume of geometric figures including prisms, cubes, cylinders, cones, pyramids, and spheres. It is a multiple step hands on activity in which students will determine the appropriate formulas provided a given shape either from memory or a formula chart. Then, they will calculate the surface area or volume. Once they have done the calculations, they will cut out the 12 shapes with the completed formulas and glue t

This file contains all you need for a fun filled class period of dilations and dimension changes. It is hands on activity in which students will calculate scale factor, volume, and impact of dilations on 2 and 3 dimensional figures. Once they have done the calculations, they will cut out the 12 shapes and glue them to the correct solution on the template. This can be done alone and taken as a grade, or used as a partner activity. Either way, it will serve as a great review for shape identi

This file contains 12 worksheet and keys for the Geometry unit (approx 3 weeks). Each worksheet has a few basic cumputational problems, and concludes with one or two VERY rigorous multi-step application problems, Each application problem has at least one measurement conversion, and usually involves money as well. I created these this year, and by the end of the unit my students were begging for "easy" HW. When they told me that, I knew I had accomplished what I set out to do, help prepare th

This file contains a bundle of 3 sets of task cards that I have posted separately. By purchasing the bundle, you will save over 15% off of the individual prices. Each set comes with a color set, a black and white set, answer sheet, and an answer key.

This file contains worksheets and answer keys for translations, reflections, dilations, and rotations. The assignments wll start with concrete examples displayed on graphs. Then, they progress to more abstract problems without graphs. STAAR, Core Standards, transformations, geometry, dilation, translation, reflection, rotation I have also posted coordinating scavenger hunt activities that make great reviews. I have a QR code set, a non QR set, and a bundle of both. Plus, I have a bundle o
