STEM Scale Factor Worksheet - Dilations, Similarity, & Intro to Slope

Give students meaningful practice with scale factor using this 4 page, progressively challenging worksheet. Starting with simpler problems and building in difficulty, students apply different scale factors to a series of original shapes, carefully labeling the side lengths of each new scaled image. This activity emphasizes precision and real-world application by having students label drawings in a way similar to engineers, manufacturers, and the construction industry. Students will visually se
Preview of Task Card Set - Rigid Transformations & Congruence

Task Card Set - Rigid Transformations & Congruence

Reinforce mastery of rigid transformations with this versatile set of 36 printable task cards! With 12 pages (6 cards per page), this resource is flexible enough to fit into many instructional routines. The classic use is as a card sort: print, cut, laminate, and have students decide whether each card represents a translation, rotation, or reflection. These cards can also be used in stations, small groups, as an early-finisher activity, or as a study tool for assessments. An answer key is in
Preview of Formative Response Exit Tickets - Geometric Transformations & Congruence

Formative Response Exit Tickets - Geometric Transformations & Congruence

Check for true understanding of transformations with this pack of 4 written-response exit tickets! Each ticket requires students to analyze a given shape and describe how it has been transformed using formal mathematical language. Students will apply critical thinking, visual reasoning, and knowledge of geometric properties to explain whether the transformation involves a translation, rotation, reflection, or dilation. To support precise vocabulary use, a word bank is included with each prompt,
Preview of Scale Factor Tacos - Dilations, Similarity, & Intro to Slope

Scale Factor Tacos - Dilations, Similarity, & Intro to Slope

Make dilations delicious with this creative math activity! Students will design their own taco menu featuring three different size options, created by scaling their original taco drawing up and down using a grid and scale factors. By applying dilations in a real-world context, students strengthen their understanding of proportional relationships while also practicing neatness, precision, and creativity. This activity is perfect for: Exploring dilations through a fun, food-themed project Apply
Preview of Real Life Tables & Graphs - Linear & Proportional Relationships

Real Life Tables & Graphs - Linear & Proportional Relationships

Engage students with proportional relationships through this fun, two page activity! Students first build a table to represent time vs. miles traveled for a sloth named Blaze McSlowface, racing across the city in his car at a constant speed. Using critical thinking and number fluency, they’ll complete the table, plot a scatterplot, and form a linear graph to show the proportional relationship. On Page Two, students apply the same skills to a real-life context: hours worked vs. money earned.
Preview of Reflection Sketch Activity - Rigid Transformations & Congruence

Reflection Sketch Activity - Rigid Transformations & Congruence

Bring reflection symmetry to life with this interactive worksheet that combines math learning with fine motor skills! Students will fold the worksheet in half along the line of reflection, then hold it up to a light source (like a classroom window or lamp). By tracing the given image through the paper, they’ll create the reflected figure on the opposite side. Once unfolded, the complete drawing reveals how a line of reflection affects the resulting image. This activity is perfect for: Exploring
