Math Equals Fun

One of my favorite types of "worksheets" is the foldable, because students glue it directly into their math journals, instead of asking "Do we need to keep this?" at the end of the lesson. Fellow teachers, you know what I'm talking about. I use this practice foldable during my lesson on cube roots. When I teach estimating cube roots it's the same way I teach with square roots: guess (logical estimate) and check. This foldable is a great practice resource for that! The first page covers the l

These are half page notes to be glued or taped into an interactive math journal. Notes for Teachers: I use these notes in my students' interactive math journals. As we discuss what makes a number rational vs. irrational, we fill in the blanks and convert each of the numbers on the rational side to fractions. This is an excellent reference for students to go back and review exactly how to distinguish between rational and irrational numbers.

This is a template for an interactive math journal entry about operations of real numbers. There are spots for the four operations (add, subtract, multiply, and divide) with plenty of space underneath the flap to record important information or rules about each operation. Included in the preview is a look at what a finished foldable should look like.

This is a textbook-type packet that I give my Algebra students as homework after going over the concepts in class. Included in this set are: 1. Student version with lesson and Study & Practice worksheet 2. Teacher version with Answer Key 3. Number Line Foldable I use the foldable for interactive journals while teaching this section. Preview file includes pages 1, 2, and 5 of the Teacher version
