For example, "We answer each other's questions", "we empower each other", etc. This is a great way to encourage teamwork in your classroom! My students have adapted and reacted really well to t

This product is a one page discovery activity for students to explore and discover the natural base "e". This is a great way to introduce the natural base e, and its importance, after learning about exponential functions and compound interest. I used this activity as a warm-up to review compound interest from the previous class and then introduce e. My students did great with this discovery because it helped them explore and discover the new special number instead of just lecturing about it. T

This worksheet contains 6 two-column proofs involving triangle congruence. Students will need to know SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, HL, CPCTC, and other various triangle definitions.

On the BACK there are practice problems, including a word problem, to practice this skill. My students found this very helpful! I used this as their notes for class. They referenced it the entire unit. It made the lesson quick, yet very effective. This resource is PDF with 4 total pages. The first 2 pages are the graphic organizer (front and back ) AND the second 2 pages a

This graphic organizer walks students through all of the methods to factor any polynomial completely. This includes the GCF, difference of squares, factoring trinomials (3 methods), prime polynomials, and factor by grouping. It provides examples of each for students to work through. On the BACK, there are 6 practice problems using each method on the front (including prime polynomials). My students keep this in their binder all year in my Algebra 1 class and always reference back to it! Factorin

This graphic organizer walks students through the process of solving quadratic equations by completing the square. On the BACK there are 6 practice problems to reinforce this skill.

This resource is all about EXPONENT PROPERTIES! This can be used in algebra 1, algebra 2, or even 8th grade math. This resource starts with an investigation worksheet (2 sided) that I typically will give as a warm-up or for HW before starting to learn about exponent properties. The rest of the resource includes the notes with examples in a graphic organizer style, and TONS of practice (25 problems), this includes challenge problems. I have included a detailed answer key to every page/problem. E

This activity has students create their own restaurant using math and creativity! This is a fun and engaging way to involve students in adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing, working with money as decimals, and using their imagination. Task #1: Create their restaurant name and storefront Task #2: Create the menu with descriptions and prices Task #3: Sample receipts task Task #4: Math questions about their restaurant This activity is a PDF that is 4 pages (one page per task).

This product contains a PDF document with 14 different mathematical discussion sentence starters in word bubbles (there are two on each page). This is a great idea for a bulletin board in a mathematics classroom for middle school and high school. In the classroom, you can use this bulletin board as a reference throughout class to enhance mathematical discussion and using good language in class. I printed out the word bubbles on colored paper, cut them out, and then stapled them to the bulletin

This product is meant to be used with a high school geometry class to organize and practice all of the properties, definitions, and theorems about ALL quadrilaterals! My students found this graphic organizer very helpful to organize their notes and to use as a study tool.
