In this activity, students graph 11 conic sections to create an Emoji! This download includes 2 versions (choose whichever works best for your class): -Worksheet with conics written in general conic form with space to work -Worksheet with conics in standard form ready to be graphed *The standard form version is also an answer key to the other form! Equations for Emoji includes: 3 Circles – Face and Eyeballs 2 Ellipses – Eyes 4 Parabolas – Eyebrows, Mouth, and Tongue 2 Hyperbolas – Dimples and

This is a 15 question scavenger hunt activity on simplifying square root expressions. Problems include simplifying radical expressions, adding/subtracting radical expressions, multiplying radical expressions (including multiplying 2 binomial expressions), and dividing radical expressions (including problems that require rationalizing the denominator) with and without variables. Please view the preview to see types of problems included. Scavenger hunts are a great way to get students actively

This is a 15 question scavenger hunt on segment/angle additions postulates. Problems include Geometry vocabulary such as congruent segment/angles, angle bisectors, midpoint, vertical angles, complimentary, supplementary, etc. Problems involve setting up equations to solve for a missing length or angle measurement. I like to keep practicing Algebra skills during Geometry, therefore there are a few problems that require (easy) factoring in order to solve. It is assumed that all angle measureme

This is a 15 question scavenger hunt activity on multiplying, dividing, and simplifying rational expressions. Students must factor expressions and then complete the required operation. There are 5 simplifying problems, 5 multiplication problems, and 5 division problems of varying levels of difficulty. There are no addition, subtraction, or equation problems. This activity does not require students to state excluded values. However, I have my students include this step on their recording she

This is a 12 question scavenger hunt on solving exponential and logarithmic equations. Please view the preview of this activity to see the types of problems that are included. When solving exponential and logarithmic equations, I find that is important for the students to get an exact solution as well as an approximate solution from a calculator. Therefore, some answers to the questions on the scavenger hunt are exact and some are calculator approximations. This requires the students to have

This is a 12 question scavenger hunt on solving rational equations. This activity includes a wide variety of problem types. Problems include monomials, binomials, and trinomials in the denominators. Students should know how to factor and solve both linear and quadratic equations (all quadratic equations are factorable) for this activity. Problems with extraneous solutions are also included. Scavenger hunts are a great way to get students actively engaged. I find that my students work better

This is a 16 question worksheet on graphing most types of functions covered in Algebra 2. I noticed that by the middle of the year, my students could use a refresher on how to graph functions we had discussed at the beginning of the year. I thought it would be great review to mix up all of the functions we had discussed so that they had to determine how to go about graphing the specific type of function. It includes graphing linear, absolute value, quadratic, cubic, quartic, radical, exponent
