* The Preview is NOT the entire product* Students work through sweet, mild, medium, spicy, hot, and ghost pepper levels to figure out how to factor trinomials in the form ax^2+bx+c where a=1. Included are both a " Do Now" for the lesson and " mini notes" aka Notes to My Future Self. Each are labelled for courses Algebra and Honors Algebra. This lesson is intended to be taught in a Building Thinking Classroom format: students are in groups of 2-3 at a vertical, nonpermanent surface (white board

* The Preview is NOT the entire product* ** Prerequisite knowledge: exponential form, expanding numbers in exponential formStudents work through thin slice levels #1-12 to discover The Product Property and The Quotient Property. Students will recognize patterns and draw conclusions to formulate the exponent rules, then apply the properties. Included are the thin slices, do now, mini notes and "spice practice" and answer keys. This lesson is intended to be taught in a Building Thinking Classroom

Students work through mild, medium, spicy, and hot levels to discover the properties of vertex form of a quadratic by comparing the equation to the graph. This lesson is intended to be taught in a Building Thinking Classroom format: students are in groups of 2-3 at a vertical, nonpermanent surface (white board) and work together to complete the discovery activity. Teacher checks as groups complete each level, then give the next level. This can also be done in groups at desks or as a class.

**Prerequisite knowledge: quadratic formula. Students work through mild, medium, spicy, hot, and searing levels to discover how the discriminant relates to the number of solutions of a quadratic. There are " mini notes" aka Notes to My Future Self included labelled both for Algebra and Honors Algebra. This lesson is intended to be taught in a Building Thinking Classroom format: students are in groups of 2-3 at a vertical, nonpermanent surface (white board) and work together to complete the dis

* The Preview is NOT the entire product* **Prerequisite knowledge: factoring by GCF, multiplying binomials Students work through mild, medium, spicy, hot, and searing spice levels to discover how to factor special products (differences of squares & perfect square trinomials). Included are " mini notes" aka Notes to My Future Self. Each are labelled for courses Algebra and Honors Algebra. This lesson is intended to be taught in a Building Thinking Classroom format: students are in groups of 2

* The Preview is NOT the entire product* ** Prerequisite knowledge: multiplying binomialsStudents work through mild, medium, and spicy spice levels to figure out the "rules" for multiplying binomials with special products. Included are " mini notes" (aka Notes to My Future Self) and additional mixed practice. Each are labelled for courses Algebra and Honors Algebra.
