This product is a set of 12 Task Cards containing quadratic word problems. Solutions involve finding the maximum or minimum, x-intercepts, y-intercepts or a value for x when given a y-value. Along with solving the equations there is a visual aspect to the word problems where students will need to locate their solution on the sketch of the parabola provided so they can relate the solution to that part of the graph (max, min, y-intercept, x-intercept, or some other point on the parabola). A bl

Graphing Systems of Inequalities can be time consuming and messy to grade. For this reason I made this set of matching Task Cards so that students can match the graphs to the correct system of inequalities. Critical thinking skills are needed to match up the graph with the set of inequalities by knowing how to locate the correct boundary lines using slopes and y-intercepts and determine solid versus dashed boundary lines and how to determine which section needs to be shaded. Both sets of Task

This product is a set of 22 Task Cards of Quadratic Equations. The first 13 specify the method to use to solve the equation and the remaining cards state to solve the quadratic equations by a method of their choice. The methods requested are to solve by: factoring, taking square roots, completing the square, graphing, and using the quadratic formula. If you have not covered imaginary numbers I have included two versions of cards 19 and 20. The first pair include problems that result in imagi

I have found the use of these posters very valuable for students that find it very difficult to learn the key positions on the Unit Circle. This set of posters shows a visual method that demonstrates 3 key patterns to make learning the exact ordered pairs much easier. I have included 12 Posters for posting that include the patterns for sine, cosine, and tangent exact values. I have also included 8 black and white copies with blanks to be filled in by the students for the ordered pairs and r

• 32 Task Cards - solve by factoring or quadratic formula • 2 Posters relating to the Discriminant • Student Answer Recording Sheet • Answer Key I designed this set of Task Cards to help students understand the purpose and importance of calculating the discriminant prior to solving a quadratic equation. I could not find anything in the text book that demonstrated the power of using the discriminant and found students only really used it when specifically asked to calculate the discriminant and

Included in this product are 30 Task Cards relating to Quadratic Functions and an Answer Key. Concepts included are: Determine whether quadratic or linear Factoring quadratic expressions Solve quadratic equations by factoring, taking square roots, completing the square, graphing and using the quadratic formula. Word problems relating to quadratic equations. Finding a quadratic model for a set of data Finding the vertex, max or min of a quadratic equation Finding the equation for the axis of sym

This worksheet reviews linear functions in 5 formats – graph, slope-intercept form, point-slope form, standard form, and by their intercepts. For each problem, the student is given information for one of the formats and is asked to complete the rest of the chart. Great for partner work but also can be used as an individual assignment or group work. Students find this is a great review of all the ways to represent a linear equation.

This product is a set of 28 Task Cards that review exponential functions. The types of review problems include: word problems about growth, decay, half-life, compound interest, graphing and translation of exponential models, identifying growth vs decay, write an exponential model given points, and comparing linear increase and exponential growth models. It includes: • Three anchor charts showing formulas, comparison of exponential growth and decay, comparing linear increase to exponential growt

My students always seem to need more practice with learning the properties of all the quadrilaterals so I made up this set of task cards for this purpose. It is a set of 32 task cards in which students will need to know the properties of each type of quadrilateral to correctly identify the quadrilateral. Students need to analyze the given information on the diagram or given description to give the most specific name of the quadrilateral. This set does not include setting up algebra equations to

A fun review of Systems of Linear Equations! This Activity is a great review for Systems of Linear Equations. It works great in groups or could be given as an assignment. Students will solve 15 Systems of Linear Equations using various methods. After they have completed the problems they will graph the 15 ordered pairs that should result in a Smiling Star! I have written the 15 Systems of Equations problems in 2 formats - first as 15 Task Cards to be posted around the room so students can ge

Algebra vocabulary is essential in understanding algebra concepts. This is a great activity to review vocabulary relating to linear equations, slopes, domain, range, and intercepts by playing hangman. Students work with a partner to discuss and write the term being described all in a fun game format. Created and classroom tested by Math M8.

This is a great resource to review Systems of Linear Equations! This is a one sheet review of the methods to solve a system of linear equations. I have left blank areas for students to work out the example in each category. I have also provided a completed chart to hand out as a resource, if needed. This works great to summarize and pull together the different ways to solve a system. Great for discussions of which methods works best for which situation.

On this worksheet students will complete a chart to find the equation, domain, and range, of each segment that forms the drawing of the sailboat. It can be used as an assignment or in small groups or pairs. It is great practice for figuring out domain and range of a specific segment. This is something my students always needed a little extra practice to understand and this exercise helped them pull all the concepts together. Created and classroom tested by Math M8.

When I remind students to study for the upcoming math test I generally get the response, “How do you study for a Math test?” This Math Analysis Sheet is perfect for getting students to reflect on their study habits and their results to make the connections necessary for being successful on tests. Often they are surprised that many of their mistakes are in their control and can be prevented on future tests. Created and classroom tested by Math M8.
