Students to write additive and multiplicative equations from tables and graphs at a 6th grade level with 9 pages (18 problems. Most of the problems are of the form y=kx or y=x+b with a few challenging questions at the end with 2 steps in the form y=mx+b. This product contains 9 pages (18 problems) The problems start easier and get progressively more difficult, including fractional slopes and y intercepts with decimals. Full Answer Key Included. The google doc is pictures of each problem (cons
Are you tired of teaching each data display in isolation? Use this card sort to help your students see the connections between the four representations of data: box plots, histograms, stem and leaf plots and dot plots. There are 15 sets of cards to match with 3 different displays of the same data in each match. Students will attend to the range, spread, median, mode and variability to tell which displays represent the same data sets. Questions to prompt student thinking and discussion question
Includes 3 days of practice with additive and multiplicative relationships. - Writing equations, plotting points, and describing situations from a table - Writing equations, creating a table and describing situations from a graph - Task cards to review all four representations and filling in the rest when given a table, graph, equation or situation. AND Identifying independent and dependent variables. Bonus File: Quiz and Practice for the Quiz This is not a complete unit, I spent another clas
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
This project assesses students ability to draw rectangles, triangles, parallelograms, and trapezoids of given areas on a scaled grid. They will need to be able to use the area formulas to work backwards to find side lengths that fit the requirement for each animal and use the formulas to show that their area calculation is correct. A detailed MYP Criterion D (Applying Mathematics in the Real World) Rubric is included. I spent about 2 and a half 90 minute class periods on this project and many
This is an investigation activity that students can do independently or in groups to discover the patterns when converting fractions to repeating decimals. It provides examples of how to use long division to convert a fraction to a decimal and then has students apply the same strategy to other fractions with the same denominator. These examples make it great for a sub plan or for early finishers with no instruction needed from the teacher. Students will investigate the patterns in the decimals
This product includes 4 contexts with a space to use the given information to fill in the table, graph, equation, and fill in the blank description. It is an editable google doc so you can add or remove questions as you see fit, but you can not edit the tables, graphs, etc. Check out my similar products here: Writing Equations from Tables and GraphsAlgebraic Representations Task Cards - Carnival ThemedAlgebraic Representations Bundle
This is a fun non curricular thinking task that goes beyond just asking students to convert rational numbers to other forms and put them in order. It provides students with an opportunity to think more deeply about the relative sizes of rational and irrational numbers and strategically choose which shapes to place where. There are many valid approaches and answers to this task so it is a great way to start the year and build a thinking classroom. This includes both a version made for 5th, 6th,
These number line problems range from extremely accessible to very challenging for even my highest students. They gradually take students through different rational number concepts and strategies while working on a number line. This really helped my 6th graders better understand the magnitude of fractions, mixed numbers and decimals and how to place numbers on the positive and negative side of the number line. It promoted great discussions in the student groups. It includes 4 pages of student w
3 pages of two-step equations with space to check your answer by substituting it back into the initial equation. All four operations included along with a few fractions, decimals, negatives, and problems requiring the distributive property! The first problem is completed as an example, making this perfect for stations or sub plans!
Scientific Notation Problems start VERY accessible and get gradually more challenging. Each question has students write the expanded form and the standard form and some ask for the scientific form given the standard or expanded form. Great for group work with building thinking classrooms or independent practice after a lesson.
Includes 4 card matching activities, saving $4.25 when purchased as a bundle. Data Displays - matching box plots, histograms, stem and leaf plots and dot plots that represent the same data. Includes teacher questions and discussion slides Area Formulas - matching shapes with the correct area formula with the side lengths substituted in and the answers. Includes extension & independent practice. Properties of Operations - matching expressions using commutative, associative and distributive pro
Each student chooses a different pair of numbers (one fraction, one whole or mixed), make up a corresponding word problem for multiplication and one for division using their two numbers, answers the question using a representation, and checks their answer using keep-change-flip. An MYP Communication rubric (out of 8) and a 100 point rubric are both included so you can choose. Lots of Differentiation with - Choice of problems ranging from easier to very challenging - Reference sheets to suppor
After using several visual patterns as warm ups building up to writing equations, I created this to push my students to figure out how to determine the slope and y intercept of an equation from a table that skips x values and doesn't include 0. This worked great with Building Thinking Classroom practices, especially with students who are familiar with writing equations from visual patterns. I've personally used it with advanced 6th graders and 7th graders. A detailed answer key and questions
These random grouping cards contain 120 sets of matching cards to use for random grouping. Each set has 3 cards that are equivalent for students to find their random group for the day. This is a total of 360 cards for you to choose from or change throughout the year. You can choose topics ranging from multiplication facts, equivalent fractions, decimals and percents, all the way to equivalent expressions with exponents and variables. The cards are meant to be simple enough for students to quick
A page of exponents practice and a page of prime factorization practice, each with a completed example at the top. This would be a great activity for a sub day or for students with learning needs who benefit from completed examples. It is a completely editable google doc so you can delete the completed example too if you want. Answer Key Included!
Each product in this bundle contains one or more completed examples, making them perfect for sub plans because they are self explanatory. Answer Keys Included!!Topics IncludeExponents and Prime FactorizationConverting Fractions to Decimals with Long DivisionSolving One Step Equations
Do your students need concrete or real-world examples before learning abstract concepts like slope? This introductory lesson to slope on a coordinate grid is perfect for you! It begins with a story about the steepness of cat stairs and ramps.
These quizzes and slideshows with good and bad examples are how I introduce the expectations of MYP to my 6th graders (MYP year 1). This bundle includes a Criterion B quiz, Criterion D quiz and several examples and non examples of the following skills Writing a general ruleVerifying your rule with examplesExplaining the accuracy of your answerDetermining if your answer makes sense in the context of the problemAfter teaching MYP year 1 for 3 years, these are the MYP skills that my students have
Winter Holiday-themed fraction multiplication and division word problems. Includes 3 pages of problems (14 total problems) with space to show work and an answer key. Problems relate to various holiday traditions, including Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and Posadas. Division problems include mixed number dividends and unit and non-unit fraction divisors, making this perfect for 6th or 7th grade or advanced 5th graders.
