You can ask Siri on an iPhone “What planes are flying over me?” and she will tell you exactly that. But exactly how far out of a radius does Siri report planes? This activity will help you and your students use trigonometry and angles of elevation and depression find out! Applications include the use of tangent AND cosine!
There are several versions of this activity all in one download! The first version is a printable activity where the data is provided and a map is provided. The second a
Students love to talk about their birthdays! This activity has students collect classmate birthday data and uses that data to apply to basic probability. This product includes teacher notes, a data recording sheet for students, and 9 questions to relate the data to probability. Questions include: What is the probability of having a birthday on an ODD numbered day? What is the probability of having a birthday during a month containing the letter “Y”? The activity could be used as practice or a
This is not your ordinary matching practice worksheet for factor and FOIL! Yes, included in this product is a 10 question practice matching factor/FOIL worksheet. However, it also comes with cards for a variety of activities to assess understanding!
After completing the worksheet, students pick a card. (Cards are on pages 5-7 and need to be PRECUT by the teacher.) Once everyone (or the majority – use teacher discretion) in the class is finished and has a card, the teacher should have stude
Give students a transparent tool to help them label triangles!
Students often have trouble labeling parts (such as x, 2x, a, b, c, opposite, adjacent, hypotenuse, etc) of triangles for Special Triangles, Pythagorean Theorem, and Trigonometry. To help my students do this correctly, I give each student a labeled triangle printed on transparency film.
Then when students are working on one of these types of problems, they line up their transparency with the problem on their paper. They line up
Students are much more successful with solving basic introductory trigonometry problems when they spend time learning opposite, adjacent, and hypotenuse and learning how to decide what trigonometric ratio to use when. This SMART Board notebook activity provides students the opportunity to practice this vocabulary. It also provides a 'pull tab' with answers. The activity ends with a little trigonometry comic relief.

About the store
Experience
I have been teaching HS math since 2001. I have a Bachelor's degree in Secondary Math Ed and a Master's Degree in Technology in the Classroom.
Teaching style
My philosophy of teaching is to find different ways for students to learn. I believe it is important to show students that math does apply to the "real world" and that yes, indeed, math can be fun.
