Teaching Math Together

A different way for students to look at the Expectations and Policies of the classroom. The students really enjoyed the change! It also helped that everything was separated by category so when I asked follow-up questions, they were easy to find! ****Unless you are Microsoft Word savvy, you'll want to make sure you stay within the margins of the boxes. Otherwise, they will move around and change size. Then you'll have to fix it back to line up. It can be difficult if you don't work with Micr

I work for a summer program who uses the Sphero Robot. We used the App Macro Lab but that has since changed. This is our intro lesson. You'll need at least one student per group to download the Sphero App that you to basically remote control the Sphero. It is changed & updated frequently. The Apps are free! iPhones and Androids work. The good thing is that no matter how they change the App name or upgrade, this Introduction will be helpful to get your students started with the programming!

A fun way for students to practice solving Quadratic equations At the bottom of each problem in the scavenger hunt, I included a Mathematician's name and a number (This was helpful in case a student made a mistake, I was able to see which problem the mistake occurred). It was a great conversation opener and I even ended up offering Extra Credit for students who wanted to research them! The problems used, post-up problems & the Key is included. Students should be given one of the problems to b

Provides students with a fun way to review Exponent Rules. The last page (Page 6) includes the problems that will the teacher will use for the BINGO game, along with the answers that match them. There are 5 different "boards" for this game so the students will have different sheets to play off of. I find that they have more fun if they pick the board they will play from. By the way, after each problem, I have a student say their answer. If I see too many students mark their sheet after the a

These notes were used in my Algebra 1 and 2 classes where we are currently implementing Interactive Notebooks. The students liked that I had saved them a bunch of writing with this one :-). You could, of course, simply use these notes and treat them as regular notes and have the students write it out old school style. I've taught it both ways and its fine. **Helpful Teacher Comment** Be sure to allow the students to discuss words they think will fall under each Operation category before writ

A 1-week Bellwork sheet for students in FOUR WAYS The First is a simple 5-Day slot BellWork Sheet The Second one is a 5-Day Slot split to also have a Closure Problem The Third one is a 5-Day Slot with large boxes -It includes a Reflection Slot The Fourth one is a 5-Day Slot with Coordinate Plane on 2 of the days -It includes a Reflection Slot & a Coordinate Plane on 2 Days I have included the BellWork as a Document so you can freely edit it ***If you have ANY questions, don't

Here is my attempt at Cornell Notes. The students liked it! The liked the lines on the paper and also liked the notes on the side. They asked for more like it! I attached the notes as a doc so that you can edit it to your liking!

A simple 2-week Bellwork sheet for students. The first page is for the teacher to plan on, making sure any work or pictures that you may want to add on, will fit. ***See my TPT Store for this graphic organizer in FOUR different ways!

Giving a test retake but need a way for the students AND parents to be held accountable?? Here's something I've created. I got ideas from all over the place and created a document that puts all the "best" ideas all in one. Hope you like it! PS...Don't forget to leave your opinion ;-)

In celebration of Pi Day with my students, I needed something relatively quick and interesting. I searched online and saw the idea of a "Pi Chain". The document is just the first 500 digits of Pi, nice and big, with directions of what I plan to do. 1. Have student grab 3 strips of construction paper 2. Tell them to decorate their strips with a number, BUT **Yellow, Blue, and Purple Strips must be EVEN Numbers **Orange, Red, and White must be ODD Numbers **Pink must be ZERO 3. Once
