Teaching Infinity and Beyond

This download includes an independent worksheet and a partner activity to practice evaluating the slope formula when given two points. The independent worksheet asks students to evaluate the slope in six problems including integers that yield both positive and negative slopes. The seventh question asks students to summarize how they evaluate the slope formula. The activity is a matching game. The students may work in partners or individually to match each card containing two ordered pairs

This document includes a group activity and a whole class activity both demonstrating the midpoint and distance formulas. The group activity has students categorizing facts about the formulas into a Venn diagram. It enables the students to see the conceptual similarities and differences between the two formulas. The whole class activity gets the students out of their desks and evaluating! The students create their own coordinate and find the midpoint and distance between their point and t

Multiplying and Dividing Numbers in Scientific Notation

This activity builds confidence for students who need to identify lines that have positive, negative, zero, and undefined slope. The students will take each letter of the "digital" alphabet and describe the slope of the line segments that make up each letter. Great for middle school and high school classroom!
