Around-the-Room's increase student engagement! Get your students up and walking around, working collaboratively, and self-checking for accuracy. Includes Side-Splitter Theorem, Triangle Angle Bisector Theorem and finding missing sides of similar figures. Includes answers and a recording sheet for students.

Around-the-Room's increase student engagement! Get your students up and walking around, working collaboratively, and self-checking for accuracy. I usually use this activity to primarily practice writing systems of 3-variable equations and have them use technology to solve. You could have them solve their systems by hand (elimination, substitution, Gaussian), but keep in mind the time frame will be longer!

Speed dating is a highly interactive strategy that can liven up any classroom! During this activity, you'll see students coaching each other to become more confident in finding missing angles, arcs, and segments formed by tangents, secants and chords.. INCLUDES: -Angles outside the circle (formed by tangents and secants) -Angles inside the circle (formed by 2 chords) -Segments formed by tangents and secants -Segments formed by 2 chords This resource includes detailed teacher directions and a

Students tend to dread writing Conditional Statements because it's "too much writing for math class." Speed dating is a highly interactive strategy that can liven up any classroom! During this activity, you'll see students coaching each other to become more confident in writing converses, inverses and contrapositives. This resource includes detailed teacher directions. Cards can also be used as task cards!

Around-the-Room's increase student engagement! Get your students up and walking around, working collaboratively, and self-checking for accuracy. Includes: -Finding sides using trig -Finding angles using inverse trig -Pythagorean Theorem -45-45-90 and 30-60-90 Triangles Also includes key and a recording sheet for students.

This foldable includes and introduction to Pythagorean Theorem, Triangle Inequality Theorem, and Pythagorean Theorem Converse. Includes key.

Includes: Writing absolute value equations from word problemsWriting absolute value inequalities from word problemsWriting absolute value equations from a graph Solving absolute value equationsSolving absolute value inequalities

This product contains 6 mini-puzzles--3 finding volume and 3 finding surface area. Students will cut apart all puzzle pieces and reassemble them. They must match each of 6 figures with a.) the formula that would be used, c.) The value of the variables that will be plugged in and c.) the final answer. I found that my students struggle most with finding the values for "B" or "P" when learning volume and surface area.This activity breaks apart the process for them. I see a lot of light bulbs go of

Speed dating is a highly interactive strategy that can liven up any classroom! During this activity, you'll see students coaching each other to become more confident in triangle trigonometry. INCLUDES: -Using trig. to solve for sides -Using inverse trig to solve for angles This resource includes detailed teacher directions and an answer key. Cards can also be used as task cards!

Speed dating is a highly interactive strategy that can liven up any classroom! During this activity, you'll see students coaching each other to become more confident in quadratic functions. Covers: Converting standard to vertex formConverting vertex to standard formWriting a quadratic from 3 points and a tableFinding vertex and axis of symmetryDomain and rangeFocus and directrixThis resource includes detailed teacher directions and an answer key. Cards can also be used as task cards!

Get your students engaged and moving Around the Room! This activity includes finding volume and surface area of: rectangular prismstriangular prismsspherespyramidsconescylinders***Includes answer key and recording sheet for students.

When learning volume, students struggle most with finding "B",the area of the Base--it's a problem within a problem! This activity has five 3-D figure that students must find the volume for. The activity leads them to their answers by first asking for: 1.) name of the figure 2.) volume formula for that figure 3.) shape of the base 4.) Area of the base (B) THEN, they use that information to find the total volume. I see lots of lightbulbs go off during this step-by-step process. I usually use
