In this project, students are asked to design their own mathematical app that can be used to review Solving Equations and Inequalities. Students will explain their apps game scenario for review. They are then asked to demonstrate how to solve 5 problems. They must explain in writing how to solve these problems and provide helpful tips to their app's players on how to solve problems of a similar type. In this edition, students will solve 5 problems involving Equations and Inequalities. The pr

7th Grade Common Core Math - Unit Rates with Complex Fractions This worksheet includes ten unit rate word problems that have complex fractions. The worksheet meets common core standard 7.RP.1 Compute unit rates associated with ratios of fractions, including ratios of lengths, areas and other quantities measured in like or different units. For example, if a person walks 1/2 mile in each 1/4 hour, compute the unit rate as the complex fraction 1/2 /1/4 miles per hour,equivalently 2 miles per ho

The Great Coordinate Geometry Caper This is meant to be a culminating assignment after the completion of your study of geometric quadrilaterals. This project includes the discovery of Parallelograms, Rectangles, Rhombuses, Squares, Trapezoids, Isosceles Trapezoids, and Kites. This activity also requires prior knowledge of several geometric formulas and equations. In this writing activity students will be asked to classify three quadrilaterals given their points. They will then be asked to j

This worksheet set includes sixteen area problems with algebraic expressions for their dimensions. Students will find the area of rectangles, parallelograms, triangles, and trapezoids for shapes that have algebraic expressions on the sides. All problems have been designed so that there is a distribution problem on one side of the equation. All problems have an equation on both sides of the equation. CCSS.Math.Content.7.G.B.6 Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, volume

In this project, students in groups will create a board game for Milton Bradley. Students will be asked to create a 30 question game, using the rules of probability. Each group will be required to have a certain number of questions that involve Basic Probability, The Counting Principle, Multiplying Probabilities, Binomial, Geometric, and Poisson Distributions, and problems of their choosing. Students will create both the questions and a game board for their game. The final product will inclu

In this project, students are asked to design their own mathematical app that can be used to review Right Triangle Geometry and Trigonometry concepts. Students will explain their apps game scenario for review. They are then asked to demonstrate how to solve 5 problems. They must explain in writing how to solve these problems and provide helpful tips to their app's players on how to solve problems of a similar type. In this edition, students will solve 5 problems involving Right Triangle Geome

In order to get students writing about math topics I created this activity on the topic of transformations. In this project, students have to research several transformations covered in class. The students then have to create a brochure about each transformation. The project requires that the students include a picture of the transformation occurring, a description of the transformation, and a real-world application of the transformation. I found that this was an easy way to get students wri

In this activity students are given sets of cards that contain common rational expressions in multiple representations. Students will shuffle and place the cards face down on the desks looking for pairs, or even triples containing the equivalent representations of a rational as a fraction, decimal, and percent. This is a great activity to get students to memorize common rational numbers in their various forms. I have also included a conversion worksheet for students to fill in the missing rep

This poster was created by throwing the most important portions of the 8th grade CCSS math curriculum into a word cloud generator. This is a JPEG, but I can send it to you as a PDF if necessary. This poster can be printed altered to fit onto legal sized paper. The poster does a great job at showing students and parents what is expected in the 8th grade math course. It can be used as a poster on your wall, bulletin board, or used as a JPEG on your class website.

In this activity students are asked to determine the best package size for the Sensational Snack Corporation's snacks. The company wants to be able to ship snacks in a pre-determined size box with as little wasted space as possible. Students will be asked to use their knowledge of three-dimensional shapes to find volume. The difficulty level of this problem could be easily changed to include finding the price of packing peanuts and cost analysis for shipping a pre-determined amount of product.

In this packet students will be asked to write equations in point-slope form given a point and the slope and given two points. Students will also be asked to convert between point-slope and slope-intercept form given a point and the slope. Students will finally be asked to graph two equations in slope-intercept form on the same coordinate grid and make a conjecture about their relationship. Meets the following CCSS: 8.EE.5 - Graph proportional relationships, interpreting the unit rate as the

This activity turns reviewing the concepts of finding common factors and exponent rules into a game. Students solve problems to review eight learning targets in an attempt to get all eight badges of math mastery. Once students have shown mastery on all eight learning targets they get the level-up badges. Students will prove mastery of GCF, algebraic fraction simplification, scientific notation, multiplying and dividing variables with exponents and more as they prepare for more work with fract

In this activity, students will rearrange 11 photos provided in a Power-Point file. Students will then write a story about the travels of a special puppy that can be found in the pictures. This particular puppy has the ability to see Geometry in its travels. Students will explain the geometry found in the puppies journey while writing their short story. All pictures that are present in this story boarding activity are my personal photos. This activity meets common core standards in both m

This Jeopardy reviews fractions after covering Least Common Multiple, conversions, adding and subtracting fractions with like and unlike fractions, and multiplying and dividing fractions. This jeopardy does include the LCM of monomials I would recommend copying down the answers to have with you to make your game easier. Make sure when you are using the powerpoint that you click only when the hand tool is showing. If you click when the arrow tool is visible you will not advance to the correct
