This game is designed to get students moving around the room while they practice writing equations for polynomial graphs. I use this after I've introduced polynomial graphs to get my students a little more comfortable with them. Students do not have to calculate stretch factors, so they can focus on roots and end behavior. Double and triple roots are included. This product includes directions, 10 stations, student answer sheet, and an answer key. If you enjoy this activity, check out the Ma

This lesson focuses on writing "let statements" when modeling real world situations with algebraic expressions. It is an introduction to writing expressions and equations. It includes the lesson plan, a doodle note sheet (designed to engage both hemispheres of students' brains) and an answer key.

This lesson focuses on writing algebraic equations to model real world situations. It is an introduction to systems of equations and asks students to consider if one or two equations would best represent a given word problem. It includes the lesson plan, a doodle note sheet (designed to engage both hemispheres of students' brains) and an answer key.

I use these task cards to help my students practice composition of functions. The cards are available in small or large; black & white or color; with or without QR codes (which are great for instant feedback). The cards all use function notation. They include inputs of numbers and variables. They include both two and three function compositions. This product included directions (in the preview) and a student sheet if you want them to turn in their work. Enjoy!

This graphic organizer allows students to organize words that indicate given operations when modeling real world situations with algebraic equations. It includes a blank organizer and one with some sample words.
