This 5-part activity is designed to help students make connections between visual patterns, tables, graphs and equations. Students will be challenged to extend out patterns to find the nth term and relate what they see to create an equation. The first part gets students started with a linear visual pattern and then parts 2-5 dive into quadratic patterns. This activity is designed for Algebra 1 students who are beginning to explore non-linear quadratic relationships. It can also be used with

Challenge your students with higher-level thinking problems as they connect quadratic equations and factoring to finding surface area and volume of 3D solids! These problems would work perfect in an Algebra classroom as students are learning to solve quadratic equations through factoring or a Geometry classroom where students are learning surface area and volume while reinforcing their Algebra skills. This product contains 14 problems with 7 being traditional 3D solids and 7 composite solids w

Challenge your students with these high-level thinking problem sets! Designed for a high-school level geometry classroom but incorporates a lot of algebra 1 concepts as well. The goal is to keep students sharp on their algebra 1 skills and some problems require a strong understanding of both algebra and geometry. Students are encouraged to write out thorough responses instead of merely "solving" the problem. These work great with advanced classes or enrichment for gifted students in a typical

Challenge your students with these high-level thinking problem sets! They are designed for an algebra 1 classroom but could be used with a variety of ages. The questions vary from algebra 1 specific content to logical thinking. Students are encouraged to write out thorough responses instead of merely "solving" the problem. These work great with advanced classes or enrichment for gifted students in a typical classroom. Included is 9 problem sets which each contain 4 problems and answer keys.
