This flow chart helps students visually understand how to classify quadrilaterals in a coordinate system. By answering Yes or No Questions the student eventually arrives at the correct classification. Both Distance Formula and Slope Formula (provided on the flow chart for easy reference) are used to answer the questions. To enhance the usefulness of the flow chart (since there are multiple ways to classify a quadrilateral) an additional "path" (based on the definition of a shape) is included at

With 20+ theorems and 15+ definitions and terms, learning properties of quadrilaterals can be overwhelming! These color graphic organizers were developed for students who struggle with math. Teachers can distribute these sheets at the beginning of the unit for students to fill out as they go, or they can be used at the end of the unit as a review activity. Students will find these resources a welcome companion, bringing clarity to an otherwise cluttered topic. Depending on your curriculum, you

This graphic organizer helps students understand the difference between discrete and continuous functions through various representations: graphs, tables, and equations. A real world example is given for each type of function to help illustrate the differences. Included in this product are: 1) Graphic Organizer pdf Sheets. There are two versions: one version with blanks for students to fill out, and a second “completed version” (i.e. no blanks) for simple reference. 2) An animated (and edita

This Word Wall is for those who have already purchased the Precalculus Word Wall. Algebra 2 and Precalculus have a lot of overlapping concepts, and therefore the Word Wall sheets also "overlap." The sheets from this Word Wall can be paired with the sheets in the Precalculus Word Wall you already have, giving you a complete Word Wall for both courses. Overview:Over 50 concepts are visually represented in this Word Wall. Two documents are included: 1) A pdf intended for printing and posting on th

This resource contains two graphic organizers. The first one helps students see how one solution, no solution, and infinitely many solutions show up in equations, in graphs, and algebraically. The second one helps students decide when to solve systems using graphing, substitution, or elimination. Included in this product are: 1) Graphic Organizer pdf sheets. There are two versions of each sheet: one version with blanks for students to fill out, and a second “completed version” (i.e. no blank

This Laws of Exponents Video Series was developed for distance learning. It was created for my Algebra 1 students (but could be used for review in Algebra 2 as well). The structure for each lesson:The instructor (that's me) works an Example. Each Example is worked out with a concise but detailed explanation.Then students work a set of 2-3 practice problems on their own as a check for understanding (called a Quick Check). They are instructed to pause the video while they work, then un-pause it to
