What is this?This is one-page graphing activity that helps students learn to graph linear equations in slope-intercept form. With this engaging worksheet, students master graphing simple equations with positive slopes to prepare them to move on to more challenging equations. How I Use This:(Note: This sample is the first practice of an 8 page set. For the full set, click here.) I spend 5-10 minutes going over a few equations from the page, then release students to try it out on their own for ab

What is this?This is a multi-day activity that helps students learn to graph linear equations in slope-intercept form. With these engaging worksheets, students master graphing simple equations first before moving on to more challenging equations that tend to pop up. 8 worksheets with 8 different levels: Level 1: Positive Slopes in Quadrant 1 Level 2: Positive Slopes in All Quadrants Level 3: Zero, Undefined, and Positive Slopes in All Quadrants Level 4:

What is this?Walk Around Activities are activities I use a ton in my 7th and 8th grade math classes with different concepts. Simply print out the posters (laminate if desired) and place around the room. Students can start at any poster, or the teacher can assign each student a starting point. Activity instructions: Have students pick one card to start with. (Spread them out amongst the cards so they don’t get bunched up at one.) They will ignore the answer on their first card and go straight to

What is this?In this partner practice, two students work independently to find the answers to simple integer addition problems, then collaborate to check their answers. Both partners have the same answers for each problem, though their individual problems are different. As students work through each problem, they get immediate feedback in this self-checking activity. This is a great activity to teach students how to monitor their own work with the help of a peer, instead of running to the teach

Task cards are an activity I use a ton in my 8th grade math class with different concepts - and these scientific notation focused task cards are so fun to use as an escape room type activity. In this one, students practice all operations- adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing- with numbers in scientific notation, picking up codes along the way to give the vibe of an escape room. These task cards can also be used easily for distance learning by posting on your LMS of choice. For classroo

If your students are anything like mine, there are plenty that will have a difficult time picking up all the "rules" of solving equations. My students in particular get especially confused when they start solving before they've simplified both sides–they get through the distribution just fine, but then they just don't know what to do with all those extra terms! Most of the time they just start moving terms around from one side to the other which results in extra steps and opportunities for mista

Converting Terminating and Repeating Decimals to Fractions | Notes and PracticeMost middle schoolers understand the number theory behind converting a terminating decimal to fraction form using place value, but most have a hard time understanding the methods used to do the same to a non-terminating, repeating decimal. This foldable demonstrates an easy to understand method wherein a second, equivalent equation is formed to aid in the conversion of decimal to fraction. What is an interactive note

This is an activity where two students work independently to write the equations of linear relationships from a table, then collaborate to check their answers. Partner A has Partner B's worksheet answers, and vice versa. There are specific instructions for each partner to not just "grade" each other's work and give the actual answers, but to help his or her partner find the source of the incorrect answer. This is a great activity to teach students how to monitor their own work with the help of a

Simplify vs Solve | Interactive Notebook Notes + Practice FoldableEvery year my 8th graders get crazy worried when they start seeing the word 'simplify' everywhere. "Does it just mean solve?" they ask me. "Well... kind of...in the way YOU'RE thinking that solve means..." And then I try to explain it to each kid when they individually express their concern about it. This year I decided to do a pre-emptive strike on the whole simplifying vs solving dilemma, and I created a whole lesson around the

It's everyone's favorite whodunit mystery game! In this round, students will practice their skills of adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing expressions in scientific operations, in order to eliminate suspects, locations, and weapons and ultimately figure out the who, what, and where of this fictional murder. How I play with my 8th graders: Students work out problems on a separate piece of paper. Once they find the answer, they look for it on the poster and then cross off the suspect,

Say the word 'Bingo' and kids of all ages go crazy. At least, my 8th graders do! We play a lot of Bingo in different ways as part of our math practice routine. Sometimes we play as a whole class, but often we play independently so everyone can work at their own speed. Practicing solving systems is one of those perfect topics for independent Bingo! How to prep and play: 1) Print all 12 problem cards as many times as necessary to ensure each student can have 2-3 problems to themselves at a time. (
