This activity includes 4 problems worked out by substitution. Each problem has an error in it (problem 2 actually has two errors). I used mistakes I saw my students commonly making. The activity asks students to find the error, explain the error, then rework the problem correctly. This is a really good group work assignment as it will get students talking about common errors they make. Each group could be assigned their own problem to correct, rework, and then present. It could also be used as a

This is a one page graphic organizer I made to get all of the important parts of graphing quadratics in one place. It includes an example of the back.

I used this during the transformations unit in my standard 8th grade math class. I had students fill out rows as closures for class periods. It helped them to have a running list of all pertinent vocabulary with diagrams and/or examples. This could also be used as a review activity at the end of the unit before a test.
