A game modeled after the tv show "The Weakest Link". Students in groups try to answer each problem correctly and earn as many points as possible. If a team answers correctly and hasn't banked their earnings, they loose all of there points. Topics include zeros, end behaviors, multiple zeros, number of turning points, graphing, and writing equations.

A power point BINGO game that provides students additional practice solving systems of linear equations. Problems include solving by graphing, elimination, and substitution. It also asks students to determine where systems are consistent or inconsistent. Students create their own bingo card by randomly arranging the answers from the 25 questions. The class then randomly selects problems to be answered. Play traditional BINGO (5 in a row) or alternate games such as four corners or creating an

This is a wheel of fortune type game is focused on the study of the graphs of sinusoids. Questions focus on writing equations, determine period, amplitude, frequency and domain and range. Student solve problems while trying to determine the answer to a riddle.

A wheel of fortune type game where students solve equations in order to pick a letter and solve a riddle. The puzzle includes 20 problems. The first puzzle has students solve equations involving multiple grouping symbols and word problems. The second puzzle has equations involving fractions and decimals, and the third puzzle has problems where students are asked to solve a formula for a specified variable.

This BINGO game gives students the opportunity to review simplify and working with operations on complex numbers (adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing).

This worksheet was developed for an algebra 2 honors class. It focuses on common mistakes made by students such as multiplying before dividing when parentheses are used to indicate multiplication. The worksheet varies the type and emphasizes skills that will be necessary for future topics in the course.

A jeopardy style game that reviews exponential and logarithmic expressions and equations. These problems are ideal for an average level algebra 2 class or an initial assessment for an honors or precalculus class.

A puzzle worksheet that scaffolds the process of solving quadratics using completing the square. (Determine the number needed to complete the square. Solve an equation by taking the square root. Solve a quadratic by completing the square.) Students solve the problem then cross off the letter associated with the answer in a list. When all problems are answered the remaining letters answer a riddle.

The clues for the short crossword puzzle are in the form of word problems that can be solved using one variable. The problems involve translating verbal statements into algebraic equations and solving simple age problems. This puzzle can be used to summarize a lesson on solving word problems or used the next day to give additional practice.

An additional practice puzzle solving linear equations. Problems involve parentheses, fractions, and decimals. The questions are arranged in a grid so that the solutions in rows and columns add to the same "magic" number. The puzzle format encourages students to check their work.

A class competition where students find the inverse of a function. Student compete against others of the same ability to try to find the inverse first.

Over 100 problems on introductory topics of Algebra 2 that can be cut and paste into a document to create a test or quiz. Each concept has multiple choice and short answer questions. There is also a sample test at the end of the document. Topics include:Order of operations, solving equations and absolute value equations, one variable word problems, solving a formula for a specified variable, solving inequalities, complex inequalities, and absolute value inequalities.
