10 stations for solving multi-step equations. Equations range from variables on one side of the equal side, both sides, one solution, infinite solutions, and no solutions.Multiple choice is provided at each station, and your answer tells you which station to go to next. If done correctly, students should cycle through all 10 stations with no repeats. The design of this activity makes it very easy for students to self monitor for mistakes, and makes grading quick and simple. Directions, stations,

Students start at one of ten stations and simplify an expression using exponent rules (multiplication, division, and power rules). Each station has multiple choice answers that each send you to a different station. By choosing the correct answer, and thus going to the correct stations, students will visit all ten stations and then end up back where they started. This is a very self-paced activity for students that is easy to self-evaluate, which frees the teacher to walk around and address any

Within a real world context (a city manager trying to plan shorter roads) students will produce diagrams of right triangles with rulers and find the relationship between the sides of the triangles. By the end of the lesson, students should see that the sum of the squares of the legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. Further, they should be able to produce the Pythagorean Theorem through class discussion. A teacher's guide is included.

Using the trigonometric ratios (Sohcahtoa), students will solve right triangles for missing sides and angles. Students cut out the puzzle pieces, solve the problems, then match them, to make the solution shape. A fun, engaging way for kids to get practice with their right triangle trig! This puzzle contains 30 problems that cover Sohcahtoa, special right triangles (45-45-90 and 30-60-90), and the Pythagorean Theorem.

10 stations for solving systems of linear equations. Methods include elimination (addition/subtraction), substitution, and graphing.Multiple choice is provided at each station, and your answer tells you which station to go to next. If done correctly, students should cycle through all 10 stations with no repeats. Directions, stations, answer sheet, answer key, and pages to show work are all included.

QR codes are hung up around the room, each linking to a different scientific notation review problem. There are five different colors representing the five olympic rings, with each color representing one of 5 targets (adding/sub, mult/dividing, word problems, converting to scientific notation, converting to standard notation). By using their own device (ipod, ipad, smart phone, etc.) student find the QR codes around the room and scan them, then use the follow along sheet to organize all of thei

Proof can be difficult to help students understand, but this activity walks them through two separate proofs of the Pythagorean Theorem, both of which are simple yet elegant. Students should experience success with proving the Pythagorean Theorem, a target that can be tough to accomplish!

In each problem, students are given one of the following representations: Ordered Pairs, Graph, Table, or Mapping. They then are asked to produce each of the remaining three representations from the given information. This worksheet has greatly helped my students understand the connections between the four representations, and well as be able to analyze and interpret each representation when they see it.

This is a 3 day intro to the Pythagorean Theorem which will help students DISCOVER (Day 1), JUSTIFY (Day 2), and PROVE (Day 3) the Pythagorean Theorem. Day 1: Through the use of an engaging hands-on activity, students will discover the relationship between the legs of a right triangle and the hypotenuse, namely, a squared plus b squared equals c squared. By discovering the relationship themselves, students will be more excited and invested in proving why that relationship exists. Day 2: Again

After learning the transformations of translation, dilation, reflection, and rotation, students are challenged to plot an original image, then do all four transformations to it consecutively.

A fun way for students to review multiplying and dividing terms with exponents, as well as the power rule. Students will review all three topics while attempting to complete the Tarsia puzzle. This is an interactive, hands-on activity that will keep the attention of your students for the full time! Best of all, it is easy to check student work, just make sure they have the right design! Document includes a regular sized puzzle, an enlarged puzzle, and a solution key.

This activity is a powerful visual justification for students to convince themselves that "a squared plus b squared equals c squared". Students are invited to get creative in fitting the squares of sides a and b into the square of side c. Because each student will do a justification for a different sized triangle, the class together will produce many different powerful examples.

This bundle includes my top three selling products, all of which are "Around the Room Maze" activities. Students go to stations around the room and answer multiple choice questions. The answer they get tell them which station to go to next. If every question is answered correctly, students will visit each station once and end where they started. For the teacher, grading is as easy as checking the order in which students completed the stations. This activity makes for a fun, engaging, and unique
