This worksheet is a great resource for math and algebra students to differentiate between different operations words for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It helps a lot when students are working on word problems! Can be used as a classwork or a homework assignment.
Showing educational videos in the classroom is great, until students stop paying attention. This worksheet follows along the "Story of 1" video which covers the different global contributions to the developement of math as we use it today. Story of 1 video: LinkThis is a great lesson for off days, after a test, or at the end of the school year.
Your classroom environment is a special space to motivate, inspire, and teach kids not only your specific subject matter but also about life. I enviously saw many teachers purchase beautiful (and EXPENSIVE) posters. As a teacher in low-income school districts, I found printing these posters on different colored papers proved to be just welcoming in the classroom. (They also provide something thought provoking for students to stare at if they zoned out for a few minutes!) Included: Quotes from P

Students told me time and time again that this was one of their favorite math worksheets in my classroom. (and its one of my most popular items on TeachersPayTeachers. If you teach Geometry this bundle is perfect for you! Included in this bundle of puzzles are the following topics: -Introduction to Geometry -Geometry Basics -2D and 3D Geometry -Transformations of Triangles and Quadrilaterals -Circles
This practice worksheet gives students the opportunity practice their 3D shapes by: -Drawing pictures and identify 3D shapes -Identifying what their nets look like -Listing what 2D shapes they are made up of -Find their faces, edges, and vertices Great practice activity for kinesthetic learners, and is scaffolded well for students!
I always start my class with an easily accessible warm up (do now, drill, whatever you want to call it) so all students feel confident beginning math class. The skill is either something that is pre-requisite to that day's lesson or review from previous days. I do a couple examples on the board, and give students 5-7 minutes to complete a short drill which we then grade right away. This was especially important to me as I was introducing Trigonometry concepts and the unit circle in the classroom
Have your students research a non-traditional math topic and present to the class: either a historical or cultural math concept/use or a historical/modern mathematician! Can be used at any level of math at any time of the year. I used this as a final project (along with the final test) within the "end-of-the-year" classroom environment which tends to be stressful during finals time. My students engaged themselves in a top of their interest within the subject of math and taught each other. This
This 9 question quiz assesses students knowledge of piecewise functions: graphing, types of piece wise functions, domain and range, and basic identification.
Students love to practice vocabulary using these word puzzles!

The skill is either something that is pre-requisite to that day's lesson or review from previous days. This particular drill helps students practice their memorization of the unit circle. There are 2 versions: one with the angles given asking for the sin/cos coordinate, and the other with the coordinates given asking for the angles in both d

Short quizzes are a great way to do quick check for understandings to see what students have mastered and what you need to review before moving forward. This quiz assesses students knowledge of: -ordering numbers least to greatest -finding the minimum, maximum, median, and first / third quartiles of a data set -drawing a box-and-whisker plot given a data set I used to give a short quiz every Friday for this purpose and found it extremely helpful for both myself and students to be in the routine

This particular drill helps students practice identifying the name and the function for all the different parent functions that students learn in a traditional HS setting. You can use this near the end of the year to begin review, or at the beginning of the year for a Calculus course to get the juices flowing. I also used to print out the answer key as a reference guide for students to use throughout the year. I always start my class with an easily accessible warm up (do now, drill, whatever yo
