In this self-checking gallery walk, students will practice solving and writing absolute value equations. Students can start at any card and after answering the question on that card they will be lead to another card with the correct answer on it. Students should answer all questions before finishing the loop. An answer key and two options for student response pages are provided. Either print the slides out on 8.5x11 pages and put them up on the walls or make a copy of the file and remove the tea

This is a pdf of quick notes and short practice page used with my Math Lab (Algebra 1 Intervention) class to learn a new, and visual, way to solve equations. Most of my students are SPED and they really liked this new technique. I've uploaded this resource and its .doc counterpart to my website msq-mathiscool.weebly.com if you wanted to word document version to edit. Shoutout to @Crisstie Crim (https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Crisstie-Crim) for sharing the knowledge of this new way to

Use this activity to introduce the concepts of systems of equations in three variables. Students will solve for the value of a shape (as if it was a variable). Would be great to use as a hook or warm-up before showing these advanced types of systems of equations. The problems increase in difficulty. **May be best to introduce when setting up and solving matrices as well!

Students will be led around a series of 12 questions that check their ability to find slope in various representations (points, tables, graphs, verbal description) as well as create equations of lines in point-slope form. Many of the questions can be answered by MATCHING the equation to a picture/table/etc. Great for STAAR Prep or any

TEKS A1.11(B). Great scavenger hunt for the first day of exponent rules. Most of the problems are very simple (not STAAR or high level) but great for fresh, new material. Can be used for Algebra 2 to review exponent rules taught in Algebra 1 before quadratics unit.

Quiz Quiz Trade cards to use for a stand up class activity. Each card has a question and an answer that should be printed on the back. Additionally, most of the cards have Coaching Tips (in kid-friendly language) that the students can use to help their peers answer the questions. Some of these QQT cards are lower level. I used them as a quick review/warm-up before our Chapter 6 test. These are also my first time making QQT cards for my class so please give me grace for errors.

Experience

I am a math teacher in Texas. The 2023-2024 school year with my 9th year teaching.

Teaching style

I like to use a mix of old-fashioned spiral note-taking and fill-in the blank notes. I like short notes, leaving time for students to practice with collaborative or electronic activities and projects.
