This is an introduction and exploration of slope and y-intercept in linear equations written in slope-intercept form. This is a great tool for letting students explore slope and y-intercept before any formal rules are taught. The exercises incorporate color coding lines and graphing on the same coordinate grid so that students can see how changing slope and the changing y-intercept affects a line (similar to using a graphing calculator but with colored pencils and rulers.) Each exercise ends wit

Multi-Step mathematics problem solving. These problems tell a silly story about Stinky McCheese and his family's trip to CheeseWorld. The problems include all operations and most problems have multiple steps. (8 problems total)

These quizzes include high cognitive demand tasks based on 2-d geometry Common Core standards. There is also a polygon hierarchy included.

Performance Task - this includes a sample menu and story problem. Students are asked to create their own menu and write their own multi-step problems. Scoring Guide is included.
