This game focuses on how to gain deep understanding about ratios and rate tables by building a house out of cards. Students will have 10 minutes to build their house of cards. They then will apply a ratio to construct a house of cards to scale. The game will help students gain coherence about how the ratio, rate table, coordinate grid, double number line or tape diagrams, and equations support each other. Included are color coded anchor charts to address misconceptions, gaps, and aid your ELL st

This project focuses on how to gain deep understanding about ratios and rate tables by building a house out of cards. Students will take blueprints from a casita, pick a building material, apply a ratio to construct a house of cards to scale. The project will help students gain coherence about how the ratio, rate table, coordinate grid, double number line or tape diagrams, and equations support each other. This is primarily a 6th grade lesson, however, I have a suggested adaption to include scal

This activity utilizes the Geoboard to help teach and investigate Quadrant I of the Coordinate Grid through structured cooperative learning groups. Allowing the students to review or relearn the properties of triangles and quadrilaterals to plot points makes this activity rigorous, engaging, and fun. It is scaffold for ELL or your lower 25% percentile students with color coded foldables. This type of scaffolding helps students to achieve learning while keeping the bar high for the rest of your l

A focused, fluency building, rigorous, engaging cooperative learning, activity to help your students learn all about Line Segments, Rays, and Lines. For older grades, it is a great way to review!!! This activity includes activity cards, directions involving cooperative learning strategies, a color coded fold-able for students to create, an idea for a poster to display for entire lesson/ unit to be used as reference or word wall, sheltered instruction ideas including color coding, different time
