This is a trivia style game where students answer questions about ordering, classifying and comparing real numbers. You will place the students into teams and then show the questions, one at a time. I ask the team to collaborate on an answer, write on a whiteboard and then show all at once. Teams with the correct answer will either give or take the points from another team. This will keep all teams engaged with the extra strategy involved. Worksheets for students to show their work will increase accountability.

Students practice finding the chord length in this matching activity to use in a variety of ways. Cut apart and use for a single student or pair of students. The set includes 18 pairs of matching cards—one side with diagram of circles and chords, the other side a measure. In this deck, half the cards have a diagram of a circle with the chord measure identified. Students will view the diagram and find the length measure that matches it. Students will only need to use one step to find the measure. You can use to pair up students for other activities. You can also use these cards as a ticket in the door or ticket out the door. Additional uses for these cards are explained in the directions or download my free resource.

Students solve one step one variable equations in this activity. There are 9 triangles that form a chain. Students begin with the triangle marked "start" and then solve the equations in the center of the triangle. When students have that answer, they match to the top of another triangle and then continue solving and matching until all triangles are matched. Then glue or tape the triangles in order to form a long chain. The answer key includes the solutions (the letter on each triangle will spell a word or phrase for easy checking). I print these on colored paper and it makes a lovely bulletin board display.

Students practice finding slope from 2 points in pairs by playing Connect Four. Each pair of students needs a pair of dice (I use the big foam dice for fun) and a student rolls the dice to determine the row and column of the problem they work. When the problem is completed on the included student worksheet, the partner checks the work and if it is correct the student marks the game sheet, if not the partner gets the square. Play continues until one student has 4 in a row. Students love playing games and throwing dice, so this gives them the opportunity to do both while practicing the valuable skill of finding slope. You can laminate the game sheets for extra use or print extras. 3 different game sheets included with answer keys. This purchase is for one teacher only. Additional teachers must purchase their own license. You may not upload this resource to the internet in any form.

Students practice adding and subtracting integers and decimals in these pyramids. There are 6 different pyramids in total--3 with integers and 3 with decimals, with different levels of skill and/or logic needed to solve. In level 1 students have the entire bottom level of the pyramid filled in and need to add the 2 adjacent blocks to get the sum which is placed on the block on top of it. In level 2, students have the block on the left side completed and need to scale up and down to complete the entire pyramid. In the most challenging level, students have scattered blocks and use their logic skills to fill in the missing blocks.

Students practice applying the rules of exponents with these 2 decks of cards. There are 2 complete decks each containing 96 cards. In each deck 48 cards have algebraic expressions using different rules of exponents and 48 cards with simplified answers. Deck 2 is a little more challenging, allowing teachers to differentiate in the classroom between struggling and more advanced students. Answer keys are included for both decks. Bongo is a bingo type game played with decks of cards. It is a great activity for groups of 2-6 students. Cards are with problems or answers (but not both) are shuffled and each student is dealt 6 cards. Players turn their cards face up in front of them. Then the other deck is used to turn up one card at a time. If the student has a match, they turn it face down. When all cards are turned face down, yell BONGO. This purchase is for one teacher only. Additional teachers must purchase their own license. You may not upload this resource to the internet in any form.

Students practice using the midpoint formula in two of these puzzles and the distance formula in the other two puzzles. Puzzles have 2 levels for differentiation in the classroom and answer keys are included for all. In the simpler level, the outside edges are blank, so if students are having difficulty, have them arrange the pieces so the blank sides are on the outside. In the more challenging level, the edges have additional problems/answers in the border to make solving a little more difficult. Set includes 4 different puzzles with 2 different levels of difficulty for students to practice using midpoint and distance formulas. You can use the puzzles on different days, at stations or give the struggling students the simpler variation. I keep a puzzle or two on my table for students who finish early. This purchase is for one teacher only. Additional teachers must purchase their own license. You may not upload this resource to the internet in any form.

This is a twisted trivia game where students (either in groups or playing individually with white boards) answer questions reviewing writing literal equations, solving both equations and inequalities. This is a trivia style game with 17 questions. Instead of receiving the points for correct answers, correct students will either give their points to another student/team or take those points away. All students stay engaged with this game, even struggling learners have a chance of practice and win with this format. Worksheet to have student record their word is included. The format is a PowerPoint Slide Show, slides cannot be edited.

Multi-activity packet to reinforce student understanding of proportionality. Students work either independently or in pairs/groups using the enclosed sorting mat to sort graphs, equations and tables--identifying those that are proportional. Students then formulate the rule. Culminating activities (several versions) include taking a graph and matching the equation and table that matches and then writing the table/graph or equation for a problem of their own. In my classroom, this group of activities took several days to complete. Answer Keys included for all.

Contains 18 sets of matching cards, one half the cards are multiplication problems with the other half are the answers. Students can work independently to match cards, with partners or teacher can pass out problems and call out answers to have students respond with match.

Includes 5 different activities that support student understanding of classifying, comparing and ordering real numbers. Students work in groups/pairs to sort numbers into rational and irrational. Once they finish, they then sort all the rational numbers into subsets. Check their understanding by using the enclosed exit ticket. Additional activities include ordering real numbers, placing real numbers on a number line and playing a game in pairs called partner pile-up. Also included is a graphic for recording sets of numbers in a size perfect for interactive notebooks and sorting pockets for students to keep examples of each number. Answer keys are included as well as detailed instructions on what to print for each activity.

Students practice converting from standard notation to scientific notation in 3 of these mazes and from scientific notation to standard notation in the other three. This is a fun way to practice a skill and keeps students engaged at the same time. I have students use a colored pencil to trace their path and show their work. If they make a mistake, I have them use a different color to continue their work. This way we can see the points of confusion and help clarify. Great for sub work, extra practice at home or use for early finishers as well. I keep several types of mazes available for students as a spiral practice. Works in stations as well.

Looking for a quick idea for unexpected absences or early finishers? Here is a word search with a secret message, a graphing activity with a Halloween theme and a cut and paste puzzle for students plus a blank October calendar for planning. Answer Keys for all included. Have a great October

Enjoy a patriotic word search, a back to school activity, a blank July calendar for planning and some label templates to organize supplies. Perfect activities for unexpected absences and to get classroom set up for the new school year.
