This activity helps students translate word descriptions into equations and solve them. It includes three levels of difficulty (8 questions per level): Level 1: One-step equations Level 2: Two-step equations Level 3: Multi-step equations Each problem begins with the phrase, “I’m thinking of a number,” followed by a description of operations performed on that number to produce a result. The response sheet provides space for students to write the corresponding equation and determine the solutio

This bingo set includes 30 different bingo cards, 1 blank bingo card, calling cards, and a tracking sheet for the calling cards. The calling cards are words that students need to match to the algebraic expressions on their bingo card.

This game is meant to practice the following vocabulary words: coefficient, term, variable, and constant. An expression is shown and students need to identify the part(s) of the expression that goes with the given vocabulary word. How to play: A question will be displayed on the board.Each player is responsible for answering the questions on their own board.Randomly, I will choose a student. If your name is chosen, you must give your answer to the question.If answered correctly, you may choose a

This is an interactive Google Slides activity for students to understand how to represent an equation using a hanger diagram. Students use tile pieces to create diagrams given an equation and write an equation given a hanger diagram. I use this activity to support the Illustrative Mathematics curriculum. Included are student slides, answer key, and extra editable templates (so you can create more problems if you want).

This is a quick reference sheet for students to use after learning about the basics of inequalities. It covers what the 4 symbols look like and mean, an example on how to use them, and how to graph an inequality using each symbol on a number line.

This is an interactive Google Slides activity on dividing whole numbers with a decimal as the quotient using the standard algorithm. Students use number tile pieces to show their work for long division. There are two problems set up on this activity plus a blank set up if you would like to add more problems. Answer key also included.

This is a Google Slides file that I used with my 6th graders to practice combining like terms. Students use the tiles to identify like terms and create equivalent expressions. Includes answer key and slide templates to make/edit your own.

Have students explore decomposing and rearranging figures in order to reason about area. This lesson includes a written lesson plan, a presentation to guide you through the lesson, a google site link with resources for students to explore and use to check their knowledge, and a math task to apply their learning. The task is about finding the area of a garden to figure out how much mulch is needed to cover the entire area.

This activity includes practice problems for area of parallelograms, triangles, and composite figures. I am using it with my 6th grade class to support the Illustrative Mathematics curriculum. Slides are set up with Pear Deck (Chrome extension).

This assignment can either be done in g.slides or can be printed and cut out. Expressions are written on tangram pieces so that when the equivalent expressions are lined up, the tangrams form a picture of a cat.

Notes and practice on using the distributive property. Includes answer key and slide templates to make/edit your own.
