This graphic organizer helps students solve for the x and y intercepts algebraically. It could be used as a graphic organizer or cut out and put in an interactive notebook. It is cross shaped which is a good visual for students (x and y axis). I have included an example of how to use the organizer as well. Enjoy :)

Students can use this handout to record their work during 3 act math tasks.

This 2 column graphic organizer helps students write linear equations in slope-intercept form given a situation. It is especially helpful for students that struggle with math and breaking down problems on their own.

Allow students to make meaning of linear systems with infinite solutions right away by connecting it to an easy to see, real context. Goals of the Activity: To give students a real life context and visual for linear systems with infinite solutions and model it multiple ways Students will apply all 8 Common Core Standards of Mathematical Practice in this activity as well as content standards related to linear systems of equationsProduct Info: This document includes: Directions for classroom use I

I use this handout in my classroom as students present their strategies for problem solving to the class. I use it every time we have presentations to encourage students to reflect and process their classmate’s thinking. It also holds them accountable during this time in class.
