I like an active classroom where everyone is busy. If you stop in one day it will look like chaos, but it is a carefully orchestrated chaos that cleverly disguises all the learning that we are doing. I use a lot of activities -- and keep the kids moving.
Research says that if anyone sits for more than 15 minutes, their brain disengages and learning is not happening. So I design a lot of activities to get kids moving, talking, thinking and participating.

Students work to identify the discriminant of a quadratic equation then collaborate with other students to check their work and check for errors.
Resource includes 4 different worksheets, each identified with a symbol. Students work in home groups to calculate the discriminat of their quadratic equations. I use a timer to keep students on task, and when timer goes off, students break up into groups in each of the 4 corners with students of same worksheet to discuss problems, compare answers and check for errors. When time is up, students return to their home groups.
This is a kagan strategy which works great to increase discourse in the math classroom.
Students practice multiplying numbers written in scientific notation and match with the answer also written in scientific notation in this matching card set. Included are 18 pairs of matching cards, half with the multiplication problem and the other half with the product. Use cards for whole classroom activities , warm ups or as flash cards.
Cut apart and use for a single student or pair of students. 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.
Using a kagan strategy, students work in their home groups to find the missing side of a missing right triangle using the pythagorean theorem. When they are finished, they use the symbol on top of their worksheet to form a new group in one of four corners to compare answers, discuss errors and get additional help if needed. They then return to their home group to correct errors and finish activity.
Included is 4 versions of a worksheet and 3 versions of an exit ticket to use as an assessment, or even a review at a later time. Answer keys are included for all.
Great activity to use in small groups, pairs or as an activity in stations. I print the cards, cut them out and laminate for repeated use. Then students identify key points on the graph and match the four pieces together. The four pieces to these mini puzzles are quadratic equation , axis of symmetry , x and y intercepts and graphed parabola. Students increase their ability to identify key points, increase their vocabulary use and used with groups--increase discouse about quadratic graphs.
Included are 20 different 4 piece puzzles, I use 8 puzzles with each group, and keep 4 puzzles for students that need extra practice.
Students have practice identifying quadratic equations in standard for to their graphs in this matching card activity. These cards are larger than many of the other matching card sets I use. There are 20 pairs of matching cards in the set, half the cards have the parabola graphed and the other half has the quadratic equation in standard form.
Great for use with pairs or small groups or use in centers. Find more uses in my free resource "Ways to Use Matching Cards"
Students practice dividing scientific notation with this set of 18 matching cards. Half the cards have a division problem an the other half have the quotient for that problem. Great to use with pairs or small groups and also makes a great centers activity.
Use as a exit ticket or entrance ticket or one of the other many ways in my free resource "Ways to use Matching Cards".
I like to laminate sets of these cards to use with early finishers too.
Students practice evaluating an Arithmetic Sequence when written in Sigma Notation in this set of 18 matching cards. On half the cards is the sequence written in sigma notation and the other half has the sum. Great for use in pairs or small groups or use as exit ticket. You can also use these as a speed dating activity where students take turns explaining the solutions to each other.

Students will identify the functions from the graphs in these 20 pairs of matching cards. Half the cards have two or three functions and the other have have the graped piecewise functions. Students work individually, in pairs or small groups to match the cards.
Students need practice analyzing graphs and this will help them get that practice without the dreaded worksheet. Great collaborative activity to encourage students to work together and talk about math. Just print the cards and either cut yourself or have students cut. You can laminate for repeated use.
Do you have students who finish everything quickly while others are just getting started? Give them an extra challenge. Also included are 4 additional graphs and 4 additional function cards which do not match. Mix these with the other cards to give your advanced students a more diffcult activity.
Have students who struggle? Remove some of the matching cards for their set.
Included:
☀20 pairs of matching cards
☀Additional Graphs and Equations to differentiate
☀Directions and tips for using
☀Answer Keys
Practice solving angle relationships with 6 different pairs of collaborative worksheets for students. Pairs of students complete different worksheets of 8 problems--each pair with the same answers. This allows students to work their problem and check the answer with a partner, if they do not match, then both students work together to find the error. Topics include Linear Pairs, Vertical and Adjacent Angles. Angles formed by Parallel lines cut by a transversal. Also included are 9 different exit tickets to use to assess student understanding. . Great activity for students to check their work, and promote problem solving skills.
Use on one day for different levels of learners in the classroom or different days. You can also use as homework checks using one of the versions and follow up with the matching version the next day to have students check their homework answers.
Answer keys for all are also included.
Boom Cards™ are a great way for students to practice finding the area of circles. . Deck has 40 cards, the first card is an example for students as a reminder on solving.
