These double-sided guided notes are the perfect companion for your mini-lesson. Methods for solving systems by elimination are clearly explained with visual cues, explanations, and thoughtful examples. The QR code opens a customized Desmos graph which contains visual representations organized by sections. This allows students to verify their solutions graphically or revisit the lesson at a later time. A written key is provided with suggested approaches to solutions. Make it your own! This

In this STEM-Infused Activity, students will match a system of linear equations with its solution. Students will solve 8 systems named for a famous scientist or inventor and match their solution to the answer board which reveals the invention/discovery along with a short, historical caption. These leveled systems may be solved by: graphing, substitution, elimination, or any other method! Suggestions for classroom use are included. Student answer recording sheets are also included.

The Graphic Organizer provides several examples for each of the exponent properties. The organizer can be printed as fill-in-the-blank, or with the complete description of each property already filled-in. An answer key is provided (great for sub plans!) The following exponent properties are covered: - Product Rule - Power of Power Rule - Quotient Rule - Zero Power Rule - Negative Exponents None of the problems involve rational exponents. The included “ Simplifying Exponents” activity makes a

This is a cut-and-paste activity that can be used as a lesson activity, a summarizing activity, a formative assessment or review. Students will categorize 18 different angle pairs into 6 categories. As an extension, students can suggest additional angle-pairs that are not included among the 18 pairs. The activity can also be color coded (suggested instructional copy included) to enhance students understanding of "interior" vs. "exterior" angles. You will receive: - Answer Sheet (blank) - Answe

This graphic organizer is intended to provide students with a review, visual aid or reteaching tool for using the standard algorithm to add, subtract, multiply or divide decimal numbers. Common Core Standards: 6.NS.B.2 6.NS.B.3 Grids are provided to assist students with organizing their work and properly lining up digits/place values. Additional vocabulary (e.g. addend, sum, minuend, subtrahend, difference, factor, product, etc.) are included for review/extension. A completed organizer is

Supporting 6.RP.1 - Writing Ratios Students roll a six-sided die in order to select one of the three questions on each card. There are 9 cards, each with three questions (totaling 27 questions). Cards can be double sided (with answers on the back) for a self-checking activity. Alternately, the task can be single-sided and used as a formative performance task or quiz. This can also make an exceptional collaborative activity or station activity. Students often "check out" this activity from my

This activity reviews decimal subtraction using the standard algorithm. Students will use algebraic thinking to fill in missing digits in the minuend, the subtrahend or the difference. The digits provided fit the blank spaces exactly, which allows students to self-check or correct their work. Digits for the front and back are printed separately to allow for activity chunking. A pencil may be used instead of gluing digits.

This activity models decimal multiplication using a hundredths grid. Students will solve for the missing factor or product, or, will write and solve an equation based on the pictured model. There are 24 cards, 2 blank models, an answer sheet and answer key provided.
