This quiz will assess students' understanding of unit conversions. Students will use various rates to answer questions about a real-life scenario. Students are asked to convert from one unit to another and rank quantities by size when the quantities are listed with different units. The conversion rates are included. Additionally, students are given four rates and are asked to answer five questions about them, including comparing a rate to another rate and using the rate to determine the total a

Project for Math and Social Studies ElectivesA project that explores three different types of election methods [Plurality, Weighted, and Elimination] in the context of choosing a favorite Algebra unit, as well as has students designed their own election. This engages students in the study of elections without political connections so they can learn about the different methods of election independently of political implications. A suggested project grade breakdown is included so that it is grade

This is a quiz to assess students' understanding of expected value. One problem involves picking a bill out of a box. Students must know the difference between the objects and the weights and how to use both to find the expected value. The other problem concerns the outcomes of rolling three dice at once. Students need to know how to find the total number of possible outcomes, use the weights, and use the complement to find the expected value of the game. The two problems are broken down into sm

Three worksheets on performing compositions of transformations and how to read and write transformations in mathematical notation. Worksheet 1: Practice performing compositions using the previously learned rules for individual transformations. It includes space for the rules and three practice examples involving non-regular polygons. Worksheet 2: Practice translating from math notation to English sentences. Notes included how to read transformations and compositions in mathematical notation. 10

A set of 72 cards. The cards are divided into nine groups, each containing 8 expressions that are equivalent to each other. There are 24 expressions with x as the main base, 24 with a as the main base, and 24 with a and b as the main bases. Depending on the length of the activity, you can use one set of 24 or all 72. The different sets of 24 have their expressions written in different colors. The first three pages are the key to the groups, with each page being a group of 24. Cards can be use

Three quizzes and a final test for created for a properties of numbers unit. Additionally, the Word file of the test is included so edits can be made. There are two versions of each quiz, and keys are included for all versions. Skills being assessed: Simplifying radicalsDetermining and justifying if an expression is rational or irrationalJustifying statements with numeric propertiesConverting between unitsUsing rates

A comprehensive four-page test is designed to evaluate students' grasp of rational and irrational numbers, unit conversions, and rates. Each page features a unique question type, ranging from multiple-choice to long answer, ensuring a diverse and engaging assessment experience. This is intended to be the final assessment of the Number unit, during which students learn about the properties of numbers and how to use numbers to describe real-life situations. Suggested point values are included on

This quiz assesses students' understanding of numeric properties. Students are asked to rationalize fractions with radicals in the denominator, match an equation with the property that makes it a true statement, determine if an expression is rational or irrational, and justify their choice with a mathematical explanation. The fourth problem has students identifying the properties that justify solving the equation. This was written with the intention that it would be extra credit to preview the

A two-page quiz on irrational and rational numbers. Students are asked to express square roots in their simplest radical form, identify perfect squares, identify rational and irrational numbers, and perform basic addition with radicals. The two versions of the quiz are similar in their difficulty level. Both versions can be completed without a calculator, but struggling students would benefit from having access to one. It is intended to be a mid-unit assessment for the Numbers unit in Algebra

This is a seven-question quiz on data distribution. One problem assesses finding the mean and quartile cutoff values from a frequency table. The other assesses using the z-score and normal distribution to find the percentile of data values. Problems are broken down into smaller questions that build into the overall skills. Two versions of the quiz are included in the file. An answer key for both versions is included.

Note sheets for the first week of an Algebra class. First page: discusses why we need to learn math Second page: defining the different kinds of numbers Third page: practice classifying numbers Fourth page: visualizing the different operations Fifth page: defining the properties of numbers Sixth page: using the operations with fractions Seventh/Eighth page: factoring and divisibility information to make mental math easier Key is included.

This is the second day of a transformations unit. The first is a practice page where students are given shapes on the graph and a written description of the movement. Students need to find the coordinates of the pre-image and image and describe the change in x and y. Students also need to graph and label the image. The second page is an activity with students practicing describing translations by describing a player's movements navigating a map to pick up all the essential items needed for sur

This was the first lesson in a transformation unit that included translations, reflections, rotations, and dilations. The note sheet is on the front, and the worksheet is on the back. The notes include space to define rigid motions, a diagram showing the transition from a pre-image to the image, and a place to explicitly state what changes with a translation and what does not change. The worksheet on the back includes three practice problems where the coordinates of the pre-image have been giv

Vocabulary flashcards (sized to print on 3" x 5" index cards but can print other sizes) for commonly used English words in math problem directions and learning. Key terms in each definition are bolded, underlined, and colored brighter to bring attention to them and provide more contrast in the definition. When printed in black and white, the keywords are lighter and can be traced by the student to allow for more impactful learning. The definitions describe how the words are used in math classes

A check for understanding the skills fundamental to conceptually understanding functions that can be given as homework, a quiz, or just extra practice. There are problems with the following four skills: - Identifying if a statement is a relation and/or a function - Evaluating using the equation of the function - Finding the domain and range of a function - Expressing intervals as inequalities, and in interval and set notation The problems are written to be accessible to both struggling students

A Google Sheets file with three sheets included: Generated by inputting values for a, c, and one factorGenerated by inputting values of both factors and includes several versions when a does not equal 1Factor Generator: Input a value, and several factors will be generated. The spreadsheet is already set up with example values and directions on where to input values. The file has been set up for both integers and fractions. For the 2nd sheet, the different versions are computed by multiplying by

Vocabulary flashcards (sized to print on 3" x 5" index cards) for commonly used English words in math problem directions and learning. The definitions describe how the words are used in math classes and on math assessments and are intended to increase students' reading comprehension of mathematical problems and questions. Each word and its definition are presented on separate pages, allowing for flexible use such as printing them separately or using them for classroom decoration. Flashcards a

The other assesses using the z-score and normal distribution to find the percentile of data values. Problems are broken down into smaller questions that build into the overall skills.

Practice describing translations of objects on a grid without needing the object's coordinates. Students must describe the movements needed to pick up all the objects from the map. The route has been given, and two keys are provided for the students to describe the movements. It can easily be made into a competition between students to find the most efficient way through the map by whiting out the numbers in the "Movement" column.
