Making sense of slope-intercept word problem scenarios! Students will come up with the equation that represents the scenario, describe and label what the x and y-values represent in context of the scenario, fill in a table of values, and graph the equation. There are 8 different scenarios of varying levels of difficulty. There are 16 additional questions that encourage students to determine the validity of a solution based on the scenario. There are two Christmas themed problems (candles and ear

This activity will help students practice or discover how to graph proportional relationships written in the form y = mx. There is a one-page and a two-page version of the same set of eight equations. The one-page version would be a great practice for students who are familiar with graphing lines. The two-page version can be used as a discovery activity and provides space for students to work out calculations below each graph. There is a more detailed explanation of how I recommend using the

Error analysis of common mistakes involving the Pythagorean Theorem, its converse, in three dimensions. This is a great activity that naturally fosters collaboration! It can be used as a review before a test or as a group assessment. The PDF file includes the worksheet with 10 questions and the answer key.

This Algebra I freebie is a reference guide for all 10 different types of linear transformations. Since all graphs can fit on one page, students can easily compare and contrast the graphs and equations of each function transformation. This can be used as a whole class review, exit ticket, "cheat sheet" and more! The answer key is included.

A fun and collaborative way to practice simplifying expressions using the distributive property and combining like terms. There are 20 questions in total. This activity can be used as task cards or as a whole class Trashketball competition! Suggestions for the trashketball game and answer key are included in the Google Slideshow.

Print-and-go or assign the digital version of this independent practice on solving quadratic equations by taking the square root! This choice board assignment promotes student-choice and differentiation. Students select a combination of equations to solve to earn a total of 15 points.

A fun Christmas themed worksheet inspired by the movie, Elf. Students can simultaneously watch the film as they answer questions about Buddy and his misadventures involving solving equations, scatterplot associations, linear equations, literal equations, systems of equations, and arithmetic sequences.

No prep, self-checking picture reveal for students to practice finding the discriminant and using it to identify the number of solutions to quadratic equations. There are 4 questions with graphs and 8 unique quadratic equations for a total of 20 problems. This is a great Google Sheet activity for students to get immediate feedback on their work. It can be used as a reinforcement activity once the concept is taught, homework, work for early finishers, extra credit, etc. The answer key is included

A great group activity to practice connecting the graph, equation, and descriptions of absolute value function translations. The activity includes 12 horizontal and vertical translations of absolute value functions. In groups, students will match the corresponding graph, equation, and translation description. The functions all include the same numbers (1, 3, and 4) so students have to pay close attention to the position and sign for each number. After completing the matching activity, there is

THREE-IN-ONE: For this cut and paste activity, students will fill in a table of values, identify the domain and range, and graph vertical stretch and compression transformations of absolute value functions. There are three different formats included in this absolute value functions activity. There are two printable copies: one is a cut and paste matching activity, and the other is a blank copy students would have to fill in themselves. The third format is digital Google Slides cut and paste mat

A short and sweet maze activity to practice checking solutions to equations. Students substitute the given value for x to determine whether it makes the equation true. Each question will lead to another until they reach the end of the maze.

A fun, no-prep, self checking activity to practice quadratic function transformations! Students will answer questions identifying how transformations change the characteristics quadratic functions written in vertex form. Once they select the correct answer, the cell will turn green. Some cells will also reveal part of a hidden picture. These cells are randomly selected so students will have to answer every cell to find the ones that reveal a part of the picture. It’s a great activity to keep st

This Christmas-themed riddle worksheet a simple, fun way to get everyone in the Christmas spirit while reviewing writing slope-intercept equations. There are 8 word problem scenarios in total with both negative and positive rational slopes.

Sum It Up: A low-prep, collaborative activity on evaluating different functions. Perfect for an end of the semester review or a quick check for understanding about each type of function. There are 5 sets of functions for a total of 25 unique problems. Each set covers one of the following types of functions: • Linear functions with integer values • Linear functions with rational slopes • Absolute value functions • Quadratic functions in standard form • Quadratic functions in vertex form

This bundle includes self-checking Google Slides and worksheets for:Solving Two-Step Equations and using the Distributive PropertySolving Equations with Variables on the Same Side of the EquationSolving Equations with Variables on Both Sides of the EquationSolving Multi-Step Equations Students will be given a worksheet of the equations and will check their answers with the corresponding slideshow. Once they have completed the problem, they can reveal the answer by clicking through the slideshow.

A self-checking, satisfying maze activity to practice checking solutions to equations. Students substitute the given value for x to determine whether it makes the equation true. This bundle includes both the digital and printable copies of this maze. For the digital copy, students will type in their answers into a Google Sheet and the cell will turn green for correct answers and red for incorrect answers. For the printable copy, students will answer yes/no which will lead them to follow a path

A straight-forward foldable on graphing systems of equations with four examples. There are four examples of solving systems of equations by graphing including: • 5 equations in slope-intercept form • 1 equation in point-slope form • 2 equations in standard form. • Three of the examples have one solution and one example has no solution This foldable is intended for Algebra I and up since students are expected to already know point-slope and standard form. It is low-prep since there is no cutting
