Students practice using the Pythagorean Theorem in this quick and easy Drag and Drop activity in Google Slides for Google Drive or Microsoft One Drive. Students have 16 diagrams of right triangles with a missing side and must find the answer on one of the other slides. Students then cut the slide from its position and paste it next to the problem. The first time I used digital matching cards in the classroom, students took 2 days to complete all 16 pairs of cards, subsequent times they were much faster to understand the process. Included in the directions is the link to the activity in Google Slides, answer key, instructions on how to share with students and instructions on adding additional notes or instructions to students before sharing.

Students practice finding the Domain and Range of Quadratics in this quick and easy Drag and Drop activity in Google Slides for Google Drive or Microsoft One Drive. Students look at each graph and determine which of the pieces correctly identify the Domain and Range and either move the piece to the appropriate place with a mouse, cut and paste in position or use a touchscreen to drag. On the accompanying Google Sheets (if you choose to use the link) Students can type in the letter of the range for each numbered equation and check if they are correct. I give my students the link to check when they have finished placing all the pieces. If their answer is correct, the space on the sheet will change color. If the answer is wrong, no change. Links to both are included as well as an answer key and detailed instructions on how to upload and share with students.

Corner Collaboration is a Kagan strategy also called 4 Corners where students work in their home group to solve problems and then at teacher signal, go to pre determined corners to compare answers with a new group and get a different perspective on solving problems. In this activity, students will evaluate the given function with the given value. There are 7 problems on each sheet. Each group will get a different version of the worksheet as identified by a musical symbol. I allow about 15-20 minutes for the students to complete (your class may need more) and then when the timer goes off, students go to the corner with the symbol matching their sheet. They can compare answers and discuss any errors. When the timer goes off again, we meet as a group to discuss any difficult or confusing problems, and this gives me an idea to reteach or move on. Great for promoting discourse in the classroom.

Corner Collaboration is a Kagan strategy also called 4 Corners where students work in their home group to solve problems and then at teacher signal, go to pre determined corners to compare answers with a new group and get a different perspective on solving problems. In this activity, students will find 2 sides of special right triangles: both 45-45-90 right triangles and 30-60-90 right triangles. Students will use formulas to find those missing sides lengths. There are 4 different worksheets with 6 problems each. Each group will get a different version of the worksheet as identified by a musical symbol. I allow about 15-20 minutes for the students to complete (your class may need more) and then when the timer goes off, students go to the corner with the symbol matching their sheet. They can compare answers and discuss any errors. When the timer goes off again, we meet as a group to discuss any difficult or confusing problems, and this gives me an idea to reteach or move on. Great for promoting discourse in the classroom.

Students practice finding the exterior angle of a triangle by using the Exterior Angle Theorem. 18 pairs of matching cards- one half the cards has a detailed diagram of a triangle with the angle measurement desired and the other half of the cards have a measurement. Students can work in pairs, small groups to match up and explain their answers to each other. Bonus pages: For students who need a little extra challenge , or as an introduction to a more difficult activity students have a set of 10 matching cards where students just need to solve for x to match up cards. Half the cards have the diagram and the other half have the x value. Great for differentiating in the classroom.

Students practice finding the exterior angle of a triangle by setting up an algebraic equation and solving for x, then using that value of x to find the measure of the angle. Great extention activity for students who need a little challenge. 18 pairs of matching cards- one half the cards has a detailed diagram of a triangle with the angle measurement desired and the other half of the cards have a measurement. Students can work in pairs, small groups to match up and explain their answers to each other. Bonus pages: For students who need a little help, or as an introduction to the more difficult activity students have a set of 10 matching cards where students just need to solve for x to match up cards. Half the cards have the diagram and the other half have the x value. Great for differentiating in the classroom.

18 pairs of matching cards to practice simplifying radicals in the classroom. One half the cards has a radical and the other half show the simplified answer. Great for centers or practice for students who need a little extra help. I use in pairs or small groups and have students work together to match up and discuss their approach to finding the solutions. Promotes discourse in the classroom as well as encourages problem solving from multiple perspectives.

18 pairs of matching cards included, on one side is the numeric expression and on the other, the simplified answer. Intended for practice using order of operations but can also be used to reinforce integer operations. There are many uses for these cards, use for single student or in small groups/pairs. Use in math centers, or as practice for early finishers. More uses described in my free resource: Ways to use matching cards. Order of Operations is a vital skill for success in higher mathematics, so

Great collaborative resource to have students practice the order of operations. Students can work in pairs (trios will work as well), one person completes A and the second person completes B and then compares answers. Problems are different, but answers are the same. Self - checking--when students have the same answer they know they are correct, but different answers mean they need to go back and check for their mistake. When students are stumped, one person visits another pair, gets help and is responsible for sharing the solution and all the steps with the partner. Encourages discource in the classroom as they practice this important skill.

Students practice finding slope from two points in this group collaborative activity. Teacher passes out 4 different versions of the worksheet, students work to solve the problems getting help from their group. When the timer goes off, students meet in one of the four corners matching their worksheet to compare and correct their answers, discussing with a new group. When finished students return to their home groups to debrief as a class. Included is the exit ticket I have used to assess understanding. Exit ticket given in 3 different versions, can use all the versions with different students or use on different days.
