This is an engaging practice on applying the difference of squares formula. It consists of 2 parts as each part contains two tasks. The first part is applying the formula (a - b)(a+b)=a^2 - b^2 to simplify expressions and the second part is applying the formula a^2 - b^2=(a -b)(a+b) to factorize expressions. Detailed description: Part 1 Task 1. Students have to apply the difference of squares formula to simplify 9 expressions (problems level 1). Task 2. Students have to simplify 6 expressions as they will have to multiply binomials and also use the formulas for square of sum and square of difference (problems level 2). Part 2 Task 1. Students have to factorize 9 expressions (problems level 1). Task 2. Students will need to apply the difference of squares formula from left to right and from right to left to solve 6 equations (problems level 2). They will use the square of sum formula once and the square of difference formula also once. The practice sheets give room for students to show work. Answer keys are included.

These are two similar forms of engaging practice on polynomial identities – square of a difference. Each form contains 7 problems. Students are asked to expand and simplify 6 expressions. The questions are of varying difficulty, ranging from simple to complex. Student will be required to apply their knowledge of multiplying monomial by binomial and adding and subtracting polynomials. The seventh problem is evaluating the value of an expression with two variables given the values of the variables. The product can be used as an extra/independent practice, for group activity (groups of two), quiz, enrichment and homework assignment. Answer keys are included.

This is a multiple-choice fun St. Valentine’s Day activity on evaluating polynomial functions. On each page/slide students are given one polynomial to evaluate for a given value of x. Students are asked to use substitution or synthetic division or both methods. There is given a picture of heart and faces of a girl and a boy inside the heart, students also have four answer choices and love words corresponding to each answer choice. Students have to use their answer to find what love words has the boy said to the girl on St. Valentine’s Day. The pages/slides with problems are eight. Students can draw a shape of a heart to mark their answer choice in each slide. The polynomials included are of 3th, 4th, 5th, 6th and 8th degree, the number of terms are from 4 to 6. This activity can be completed individually or students can work in pairs (partner A will evaluate the polynomial using substitution and partner B will evaluate the same polynomial using synthetic division, then partners compare their answers and choose the correct answer choice; on the next page/slide partner A will use synthetic division and partner B will use substitution to solve the problem. Thus partners will practice both methods and will enjoy this activity together. I think this activity can be used in all days of school year. The answer key is given at the end of this document.
