Dilation Project
Extend students learning in Dilation with this low prep and engaging project that includes, Art Math and Writing. Students are randomly given a scale factor Students either enlarge or reduce a figure on the coordinate plane based on the scale factor. They must write the algebraic representation for the dilation.Students justify their work in writing. Are you thinking about next year and wondering what huge gaps your students will come in with? I am and so are several of my teacher friends. So w

Transformation Matching Card Activity
Are your students having trouble understanding the algebraic representations for each transformations. This matching activity is your answer. My students were highly engaged and went from not really able to do it to mastering this concept. Students can practice recognizing the transformation, translation, reflection, rotation and dilation, with the algebraic representation with this matching card activity. There are different levels of difficulty with these cards in order to give students of a

Teaching style
My teaching style is rooted in the Gradual Release Model—I Do, We Do, You Do—to support students as they move from guided instruction to independent mastery. I prioritize high student engagement through meaningful questioning, collaborative problem-solving, and activities that require students to think, talk, and justify their reasoning. Every resource I create mirrors this approach: clear modeling, structured practice, and opportunities for students to actively engage with Algebra I in a way that builds confidence and deep understanding.
