In this activity, students solve six different equations (with variables on both sides). They then sort the equations into three different columns by cutting and pasting. This activity provides extra practice with solving equations and also reinforces which types of solutions represent which number of solutions. This activity is a good bridge activity to check for comprehension before moving into Systems of Equations.

Great quick resource to glue into an interactive notebook. Includes sections for the rules of exponents when multiplying, dividing, raising to a power of 0, raising to a negative power and raising a power to another power.

This activity requires middle school students to calculate the tax on different items based on the tax rate in multiple states. Students must first find the sales tax and then find the final price. In a closing discussion they can discuss the pros and cons of the different tax rates. (Before we did this project we watched a BrainPop on what taxes are).

These number lines can be used in many different types of activities. -Use then as a turn-in project that students write on. -Use with modeling of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. -Laminate (or place in a page protector) and let students write on them with dry erase markers during center rotations. -The list goes on and on!

In this activity students are given random amounts of candy corn and candy pumpkins. Students will calculate fractions, percents and ratios based on their candy.
