Task Cards for 6th Grade Linear Equations including y=mx and y=x+b. Each task card includes a table, graph, equation, fill in the blank description of the situation, and a box to identify the independent and dependent variables. Equations include additive and multiplicative situations and include a mixture of fractions, decimals and whole numbers. All situations are carnival themed. This is perfect for an end of unit review of linear equations in 6th grade math. Full Answer Key Included. Al

Do you have students still using their fingers or counting up by ones for two-digit addition problems? This worksheet/activity is perfect for students who need to develop strategies for two-digit addition beyond counting by ones using ten frames, bar models, and number lines. It is intentionally designed to help students see how the repeated reasoning of making 10's can be helpful for mental addition. It would be a great investigation to follow up on a series of addition number talks because th

Each student chooses a different pair of numbers (they range from 8 & 4 to 80 & 4 so students can choose an appropriate challenge), make up a corresponding word problem for multiplication and one for division using their two numbers, answers the question using a representation and explain how they did it. A rubric (out of 4) is included. Lots of Differentiation with - Choice of problems ranging from easier to very challenging - Reference sheets to support students in the more challenging aspe

Includes a card sort illustrating the properties of operations and a printout activity where students determine which expression is not equivalent. The bonus file is notes that follow the concrete representational abstract progression to help students develop a better understanding of the properties of operations. Great for an introduction to equivalent expressions and using variables to represent unknown values in 6th grade.

Properties of Operations Card Sort with a variety of visual representations illustrating the Distributive, Commutative and Associative Properties. Contains 29 expressions, 29 visual representations, and 29 verbal descriptions. Some of the expressions are equivalent to another expression in the sort illustrating one of the properties and some are not equivalent illustrating common mistakes and misconceptions. Includes some cards with only numbers and some with variables. *Due to the different t

One page worksheet on adding fractions with like denominators. Each question includes helpful visual models to support students in adding fractions. Several questions ask students to shade in the models to represent the corresponding fractions to help them make connections. The questions do get gradually more challenging including some that add up to improper fractions but all questions have like denominators.
