This guided note sheet is intended for the first day of solving systems. (I originally made this for when I had a sub, but found it to be helpful). This includes what a system is, an example of graphing and how to check. Answers/key points to mention included.

This activity includes 22 Order of Operations problems, with two of each answer from 0 to 10. Students can self-check by ensuring that they have two of each type of answer. Included are problems that address common student misconceptions, operations with negatives and squaring both positive and negative numbers. Could be used as a homework assignment, in class activity or an assessment. Appropriate for individual or group work. Should be done without a calculator. This would be perfect t

This set of stations allows students to practice solving systems with substitution. The answer to the problem leads students to the next problem that they should solve (kind of an "Around the World" review approach).

This is a great activity to help students review the coordinate plane. It promotes higher thinking and collaborative learning. I have students work in pairs to sort/match up the cards. A hint for students, depending on the level, is that there should be six groups with four cards each. You can easily eyeball the cards to see if students are on the right track. I have my students complete this without notes or a coordinate plane visual, but you can choose what works best for your classroom.

Perfect for review! Perfect for when you have a sub! Includes 24 review cards and their answers. Make sure you copy the cards double sided so you see #1 on the front and the answer to #1 on the back. Use a document camera to project.

This activity helps students discover the distributive property by relating it first to real life. This would make a great cooperative learning activity or could be assigned for students to work on independently. This is intended to be used when introducing students to the distributive property for the first time, but could also be used as a re-teaching tool. Answer key included.

This worksheet contains 4 substitution problems - students must solve and check. I use it as a check in/exit slip the day after I teach substitution, but it could be used as a homework assignment, review assignment or a quiz. Answers included.

This is a practice activity that pulls together the 3 methods for solving a system of linear equations (graphing, substitution and elimination). Worked out solutions included. Could be used as an in class activity, a mini assessment or homework.

I used this after teaching graphing and substitution as a check-in to provide students with feedback on how they're doing so far with systems. This could also be used as a homework assignment or short quiz. Answers included.
