All of my proceeds on all of my items are donated to nonprofit organizations in support of education! I used this as a pre and post assessment for the Slope Intercept Equation Form unit. You can also use it as a worksheet or homework. The assessment goes over relating equations to real life, moving between graphs, tables, and equations, and putting equations into slope intercept form. Point values are assigned to problems. Key is included.

MathNerd
This is a fun sort to help students see the difference between slope and y-intercept when learning about Slope Intercept equations. Students are given different pictures, graphs, equations, statements, and definitions and they have to put them on a diagram. One side of the diagram is "Slope" one is "y-intercept". Everything you need is provided. See the preview for an idea of how this would look when they are finished. You do not need to print one for each student, they are reusable!

About the store

Experience

I have been teaching for almost 8 years now and have taught middle school and high school math. Most of my experience has been in Colorado, but I began my teaching career in the south.

Teaching style

I am all about experimental learning. I want my students to experience math, not just memorize it. My classroom is always busy, but organized and full of learning.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I have seen 100% of my students grow and advance. Last year, I had 81% of my students earn a proficient or advanced rating on the state standardize test with 0% fail. I have received the honor of being named Math Teacher of the Year in 2011 at my school.

My own education history

I have a bachelor's degree in Engineering, which allows me to actually answer the common question of "When will I ever use this in life?" I know all you fellow math nerds have heard these words in your own classrooms. During college, while teaching a business calculus course, I realized my love for sharing my knowledge. After college, I began teaching while earning my license and just completed my Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction with a focus in Urban Learning and Teaching for English Language Learners.

Additional biographical information

I cannot get enough of working with young adults, so I volunteer as a mentor for a program working with students who are at risk for not graduating high school. Last May, I saw my first "mentee" walk at her graduation and sent her off to college in August. I also volunteer at a local animal shelter and enjoy spending the rest of my time with my husband and 2 kids.
