Math is Marvelous

This activity was created to have students work together in pairs or small groups to work on problems dealing with number sense. It is useful for math intervention or review at many grade levels. The pairs or groups work on one task at a time. Each task has typically 3 or 4 questions or problems. The students answer the questions or solve the problems as a group and present their results to the teacher. If they are correct, their group can sign up for a mystery prize. Several mystery p

This product was created to introduce solving two-step equations to students so that they how to undo steps to solve for the variable. This product includes one page that defines "equation" and briefly discusses the basic operations that can be applied to equations. This product then includes 4 pages of two-step equations without integers (8 problems) that "talk" the equations through for the students. The students are prompted to describe what operations are applied to the variable and how to

This product has a 12-sheet Scavenger Hunt that is posted randomly about the room. Each sheet has an equation or expression problem, and the answers have to be found on another sheet as well as the next problem. A one-page "scavenger hunt" with the same problems on it is also provided with this product. The types of problems include: 1. Expanded forms of exponential expressions (2 problems) 2. Translating from words to expressions (5 problems) 3. Simplifying expressions (2 problems) 4. Evalua

This product was created for students to review the basic concepts of expressions and equations.

This product was created to introduce one-step equations to students so that they learn to understand what the equations mean and what they are asking for. This product includes 3 pages of one-step equations (30 problems) that "talks" the equations through for the students. Questions like "What number times 2 equals 10?" are included. The students are also encouraged to check their answers. This product also includes 2 pages of one-step equations introducing unwrapping an equation by using I

This product has 24 subtracting integer problems in tabular form to help guide the students to complete the subtractions correctly. The headings of the table describe the step the students need to show. Three examples are shown. Answers are provided in random order and as a key for the teacher.
