These guided notes introduce students to reading a story-line and being able to sketch a graph (focusing on increasing, decreasing, and no change). It also goes through looking at a graph and analyzing key features. This aligns with the Big Ideas Blue Textbook 2014, chapter 6 section 5.
These notes introduce students to rational numbers and irrational numbers. It also has students estimate irrational square roots to the nearest whole number and nearest tenth. It aligns with the Blue Big Ideas Textbook 2013, chapter 7 section 4.
This is a set of guided notes for 8th grade pre-algebra congruent shapes and corresponding sides+angles. It aligns with Big Ideas Common Core Textbook 2014
This bundle includes guided notes for congruent/corresponding shapes, translating shapes, reflecting shapes, and rotating shapes. It also includes helpful classroom posters to use as a reference for students.
These notes review finding slope from a graph, and learning how to find slope from two points. It also discusses how to use slope to create a line through points. It aligns with section 4.2 in the Blue Big Ideas Math Textbook 2014.
These notes have students use the Pythagorean theorem to check if triangles are a right triangle. It also introduces students to the distance formula (although I didn't show students the distance formula, I had them draw triangles use the hypotenuse given). It aligns with the Blue Big Ideas Textbook, 2013, chapter 7 section 5.
This is a classroom poster sized at 11 by 17 inches. You could print this smaller if needed. This has helped my students remember what they need to do to keep their work organized!
This bundle includes the four main transformations studied in 8th grade: translations, reflections, rotations, and dilations. It includes guided notes as well as poster to hang around the room.
This station activity has students going through 6 different stations to practice their knowledge of translations in math. It comes with a records sheet for students to record their answers on.
This bundle includes the basics of slope, proportional relationships, graphing in slope-intercept form and finally standard form. There are guided notes included as well as classroom posters.
This bundle includes my resources for solving equations. It starts with one-step, then two-step, and then multistep notes. It also includes posters to hang in the classroom for the unit.
This is a classroom poster sized at 11 inches by 17 inches but could be printed smaller if needed. It shows the rules for rotating around the origin, both clockwise and counterclockwise.
This bundle contains 6 posters for finding volume of cylinders, cones, and spheres. These are great to hang around your classroom to help students remember the different formulas.
This poster is sized at 11 by 17 inches, but could be printed smaller if needed. It reminds students the two ways to graph lines in standard form: using y=mx+b or using the intercepts.
These notes discuss solving equations and formulas for a specific variable (rearranging the equations and formulas). This aligns with section 1.4 of the Blue Big Ideas Textbook 2014.
