About the store

I have been teaching math for 10 years. Throughout those 10 years, I have taught 6th grade, 7th grade, 8th grade, and Algebra 1. 8th grade and Algebra 1 are my specialties. I love teaching math and have maintained great test scores.

Directly Proportional Relationships Notes and Homework

Created by

The Practical Math Guy

When I taught 7th grade math, this skill was all over common core. I developed a detailed lesson on word problems, graphing, and tables of directly proportional relationships. It was difficult for my kids to find the equation from a graph when the intervals are messed up. I have two homework assignments that mix up the intervals. Again, this is a classroom tested and approved lesson by myself.

About the store

Experience

Teaching style

I would say that I truly care if students enjoy my class. I do group work, partner work, peer tutoring, online activities, foldables, and plenty of dry erase practice. My lessons are mostly powerpoints that I have worked on and perfected over the years. My lessons are designed to be user friendly and kids love my class.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I'm more of a "behind the scenes type person." I don't need awards to prove that I am a good teacher. I would rather share every lesson I have and no recognition.

My own education history

I am an Honors Graduate of Emory and Henry College, in Emory, Virginia.

Additional biographical information

I've always wanted to be a math teacher. I had a ninth grade math teacher that changed my life and made me care about school. Since 9th grade, I wanted to provide students with the same experience I had with a great teacher.
