Partner Pair Activity for review at beginning of year for Algebra 2 or Algebra 1. The activity is a powerpoint that includes partner A and partner B problems with solutions. The concepts included are rewriting literal equation, problem solving, evaluation expressions, and solving basic equations. I use this at the beginning of Algebra 2 to review past concepts students have not seen since Algebra 1. I like to get the students working together from day 1 by introducing cooperating learning ac

Graphic Organizer for Translating Algebraic Expressions with interactive activity of cutting and pasting key words with the appropriate mathematical operation. Includes cut and paste matching activity for matching algebraic expressions with the appropriate word phrase. Great introductory lesson and follow for in class notes, interactive notebook, active engagement in the algebra classroom.

This lesson includes interactive notes for rationalizing denominators. The lesson includes cut and paste notes, reordering the steps activity, cut and pasting the work in the correct order, and 10 practice problems that completes a lesson on rationalizing denominators. Answers are included.

Activity cards that incorporate Algebra 2 Solving Inequalities, Compound Inequalities, Absolute Value Equations, Absolute Value Inequalities. The cards can be used in cooperative learning activities, interactive notebooks, or solo practice. 20 cards with 20 solutions plus instructions for five cooperative learning activities that incorporate the cards.

Engage your students and capture their attention! This is a unit that includes both notes for interactive notebooks and ready made activities for the Algebra 1 or Pre-Algebra classroom. The unit includes translating English to algebra graphic organizer and matching actvity, order of operations foldable and line up activity, evaluating expressions activity with interactive notes for an engaging lesson.

Partner A and Partner B sets of equations for practice solving one step equations. Students A and Student B will have different equations to solve, yet will have the same answer. Students can verify which each other that they have the right answer. The equations can be cut and pasted into interactive notebook. Answer sheet is also included. This activity can also be used as a matching game or mix-up match up game around the room! This would also work well in centers. Place a few equati

I use these pages in my high school math classes. The introduction pages includes an author's page, first goal page, rubric, and table of contents. My students fill these out on and paste them into their notebook on the first day of school.

Foldable for order of operations. Interactive activity for substituting numbers for variables in algebraic expressions. Line up activity that incorporates both order of operations and evaluating expressions.

Need a great factoring activity that gets kids excited about factoring and reinforces prior knowledge? You can use this activity in a variety of ways. I use it as a mix and match activity. Each student gets a card and works out his/her problem. The students find their matching pair and check their answers. It can also be used as a center, partner A and partner B, interactive notebook matching, etc. So many uses to reiterate the importance of signs and how factoring is related to multiplyi

A great tool to use to get to know your students on the first day of school. I kept it in word format so you can edit it as you see fit.

Center based Algebra 2 lesson. The concepts included are graphing real numbers,unit analysis, matching properties, conversions, simplifying expressions, combining like terms, and solving basic equations. Includes 6 centers and answer key. This would also work in interactive notebooks using the 6 centers and the notebook together to form an entire in class activity.

Letter used to introduce yourself to your students' parents.
