Review worksheet for solving equations in Algebra 1 or Geometry. Includes one-step, two-step, and multi-step equations in addition to variables on both sides.

Print the document with the words Always, Sometimes, and Never and tape them around the room. Use the power point to display statements about relations and functions and the students will walk around the room and stand next to the answer (sometimes, always, or never). You can then ask students to defend why they are standing at the answer.

Activity for properties of exponents. Print the activity. Use the first page as the game board. The second page can be cut into pieces. Students, in a group, can either take turns placing the game piece in the correct space on the board, or you can have them all completing it at the same time. This could also be a competition to fill in the board and students can earn bonus points on their test.

Solving One-step Equations Activity. Cut out the cards on colored computer paper. Place one card on each students desk. Give 2-3 minutes, depending on class , for each student to complete the problem on scrap paper. When it looks like they are all done, say "go," and students will move to the next seat to complete the next problem. It helps to tell them who to follow in advance. After all the rounds are complete and students are back at their seats, have students put the answer to the prob

Mini posters for the Sometimes, Always, and Never activity. Template of the words to print on colored paper and use all year! Ask questions to students and have them stand under the category that it fits.

Download the word list. Cut them up and put the words in envelopes. Students in groups pull out a word at a time and describe the word while their teammates guess what it is (my version of the traditional game, catch phrase). Template is adjustable so you can alter the words to your liking. Topics include Foundations of Algebra, Solving Equations and Inequalities, and Functions.

Power point shows a statement and students determine if it's true or false. They can walk around the room to signs that say true or false and they defend their answer or they can hold up the answer on a white board or paddle.
