About the store
I spent 8 years teaching high school - 6 years as a Math Teacher, primarily in Geometry and Algebra 2, but also taught Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, and Calculus. Then I spent 2 years as a mild-moderate special education teacher in English and Math. I had my own classroom, acted as a co-teacher, taught vocational transitions, and oversaw Coffee Cart and Work Experience programs. I've also coached volleyball and scholar bowl. Later, in a private Christian school, I served as School Board Vice Chair. I am currently homeschooling my 1st and 4th graders.

Independent and Dependent Variable Sorting Activity
Students cut out the variables from the instructions page then tape/glue them into the Independent Variables/Dependent Variables table. Variables come in pairs/from the same situation, but are completely mixed up on the page they cut them from. The direction page includes an example.
Use this activity in your Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, or Algebra 2 class to help students practice determining if a variable is independent or dependent. Made on a full page of paper, but can be used in an interacti

Domain & Range Finder
Hands-on tool to help students determine Domain & Range of graphs.
Includes sample graphs to practice with and pictures of the Finder in action!
Purpose – the edges of the flaps will cross the respective x- or y- axis to give students a visual representation of the numbers we use to describe our domain and range for a particular relation. This works for continuous and discrete graphs.
Print page 1 & 2 front and back on the same sheet. Cut out the corners as indicated with the scissors. Cut

Simplifying Radicals Flowchart - When to Use Absolute Value Symbols
Simplifying Radicals can be tricky when trying to decide when to use absolute value symbols in the answer. This flowchart is designed to help students use the absolute value brackets correctly.
Includes a blank version and a typed key. Can have students complete the blank one, or can simply provided them with the filled-in version.
Created for use with Algebra 2

Relation vs Function Sorting Activity
36 Relations/Functions are represented by graphs, mapping diagrams, tables, and equations on cards. Students sort them based on if they are function or not. You may also have them sort based on if they are One-to-One Functions.
Includes 36 cards, 2 headings, and 1 direction sheet - everything one group needs!
Could also be used by individual students and placed in their Interactive Notebooks!

Notation Foldable - Algebraic, Set, and Interval Notations
Notes for students to use in their binders or interactive notebooks to help them understand the differences between Algebraic, Set, and Interval Notations.
Copy 1st and 2nd page front-to-back, so that pages 2 and 3 may be viewed simultaneously. Cut along the horizontal lines of the page 1/2 so that students may view each type of notation individually.
Includes Discrete and Continuous Examples for Set Notation.

Using the Discriminant to Determine Types of Roots - Flowchart
This handy flowchart will help students use the Discriminant to determine the number and type of roots of a quadratic equation.
Hand out the flowchart filled in, or have students complete it as a class activity.
My goal in my classroom with this flowchart was that it would help students streamline their thought process and make stronger connections between that number they got under the radical and the answers they got out for solutions. I hoped that they didn't actually need this flowchart

Families of Functions - Transformations of General Function Web
All possible transformations on the general parent function f(x) organized into a web.
Three pages:
Page 1 = web completely filled in
Page 2 = transformations filled in, function changes (bottom bubbles) blank
Page 3 = completely blank
Use whichever version(s) you prefer in your classroom. If you'd like some other combination of blank/filled in bubbles, please contact me and I'll be happy to provide that at no additional charge. =)
Thanks!

Writing Linear Equations Handout/Foldable
Two page document
1st page is Step #1: Find the slope. Includes directions for finding parallel and perpendicular slopes
2nd page is Step #2: Write the equation. Includes directions for point-slope, slope-intercept, and standard form
Please note: I did not give directions on using slope-intercept and a point to find the equation. My students learn that in Algebra 1, so I like to focus on point-slope to give them more experience with that form.
Can be printed on two pages and cut out to mak

Teaching style
I try to make the most of every minute! I love to implement games and hands on learning activities as much as I can. I take a lot of pride in all that I do, and care deeply for my students.
Awards & shining teacher moments
My math students consistently scored very well on state standardized tests. As a math teacher, I was named STAR teacher for one month (by students) and Teacher of the Week (by coworkers/administration).
