Middle Years Math

Exponents, Square Roots (Radicals) Prime Factors/ Factor Trees are covered in this inquiry based interactive/guided notes template. Plus practice questions and activities! This package is designed for students to inquire and discover the meaning behind exponents and roots mostly on their own through guided exploration activities. There are built in practice questions and notes along with the inquiry. Minimal prep for the teacher as this package is designed for student to work through and inquire

This package has been developed with the Alberta Education Math 9 Part A Provincial Achievement Test (P.A.T) in mind. 15 pages of practice questions on number/ numeracy and solving equations. This is a great set of practice questions to help Math 9 students gain familiarity with the types of questions on the P.A.T. If you have students who are not in Alberta Education Math 9, but need practice on numeracy and solving equations (with fractions and decimals) this will also be great for you! The qu

30 pages of practice questions on number/ numeracy and developing mathematical reasoning. This is a great set of practice questions to help middle years students gain familiarity with numbers in general, and skills that transfer between units. I use this booklet as weekly practice questions on mental math and arithmetic. This package has been developed with the Alberta Education Math 9 Part A Provincial Achievement Test (P.A.T) in mind to help prepare students to take that assessment. I taugh

Guided (template notes), 4 different (short) worksheets, 2 inquiry activities and BINGO all on the topic of decimal, percent and fractions. Most emphasis is on converting between the three equivalent forms and then percent of calculations. This unit is designed with Alberta Math 7 curriculum in mind. Specific concepts covered:1- Calculating 10% of a number-mental math trick 2- Calculating/estimating other simple percents of using mental math 3- Calculating percent of in finances (sales, GST, sa

Enhance your MYP curriculum with this engaging Criterion B: Investigating Patterns activity focused on the Fibonacci Sequence. Students will independently inquire into the formation of the Fibonacci Sequence and explore multiple patterns within it, strengthening their problem-solving and critical thinking skills. This investigation also provides an opportunity to apply their understanding of perfect squares. Perfect for use with a substitute teacher, this ready-to-go task requires minimal prep—

Probability basic formula, tree diagrams, table diagram, "and" and "or" calculations, as well as enrichment using "and" and " or" are covered in this inquiry based interactive/guided notes template. Plus practice questions and inquiry activities. The definitions are taught through a cut & paste or solve and search style activity, and then guided questions/ application throughout. Detailed answer keys included. Please view the preview file to make sure that this activity is appropriate for you

Inquiry, enrichment / investigation/ Criteria B: Investigating Patterns (MYP) on the topic of surface area of composite lateral surface area. Students will inquire into any patterns they can see to form when calculating the surface area of layered cakes. This is an excellent task for students to strengthen their problem solving, critical thinking and apply their understanding of surface area. Also a great activity for students who need to be challenged more! This task is also great to use on a

Inquiry, enrichment / investigation/ Criteria B: Investigating Patterns (MYP) on the topic of discovering relationships between area to surface area and volume to surface area of squares/cubes with the same side lengths. This is an excellent task for students to strengthen their problem solving, critical thinking and apply their understanding of surface area. Also a great activity for students who need to be challenged more! This task is also great to use on a day when you have a sub. All the pr

Inquiry/ self discovery/ investigation/ Criteria B: Investigating Patterns (MYP) on the topic of Perfect Squares and Square roots, specific to numbers that have leading and trailing zeros i.e. 121 000 or 0.009. Students will inquire into any patterns they can see to easily identify if these types of numbers are perfect squares and then develop a rule/process to taking their square roots. This is an excellent task for students to strengthen their problem solving, critical thinking and apply thei
