This is a fun matching game on solving rational equations by cross multiplication. Students have to solve 12 equations as the first six result in linear equations and the rest six result in quadratic equations. There are 4 slides/pages with problems. On each slide/page students are given 3 equations to solve and pictures of four bonbons (candy). Students search for their answers written on the bonbons and if they find their answer written on a bonbon then they “eat the bonbon” striking it through. Then students are asked to match the problems with their solutions. Students can draw identical characters to mark the equation and its solution or they can draw a line/curve to joint the problem and its solution. Student find out that in each slide/page there is one bonbon that “can not be eaten” (the answer written on it is not solution to any of the problems). I hope your students enjoy this activity. Answer keys are included. NOTE: This product is created as a Google Slides product. I have converted it to PDF item here. I have included 2 PDF files - the one has each slide as a page and the other has four slides on a page for easy and more economic printing!

This is a set of 18 task cards with a Wizard theme on multi – step equations and inequalities. Students will solve three types of problems each containing an equation and an inequality. ▸ The first 6 problems (cards A1- A6) are showing that a given multi – step equation satisfies a given multi – step inequality. ▸ The next 6 problems (cards B1 – B6) are showing that a given equation doesn’t satisfy a given inequality. ▸ The last 6 questions (cards C1 – C6) are finding the common root between given multi – step equation and a multi - step inequality. Students work independently or in groups of two or three. Student recording sheets and answer keys are included. ❉ This may turn to fun motivational activity. Students can imagine that these are wizard’s task cards. The wizard is a mathematician and he is a good person. He will fulfill the good wish of those students who solve all of the problems correctly. The wizard can be the teacher herself or himself rewarding the students for their efforts.

This is a fun game on factoring trinomials. The half of the problems are with the leading coefficient a=1 and the other half have a≠1. Students are given 12 problems and 12 pictures of dragons ( there is a picture of a dragon corresponding on each trinomial). The problems are multiple-choice format with four options each ( there is a name of a dragon corresponding on each possible answer). Students have to factor the trinomials given and find out the names of all dragons. The names are funny as they begin with Dr or the dragons may have names like “ The Lazy” , “The Clever”… The game arouses students’ imagination and makes students enjoy while solving the problems. Student recoring sheet and answer keys are provided.

These are 12 cards for partners – a total of 48 trigonometric equations. Students will practice solving basic trig equations, equations with multiple angles and equations of quadratic type. They will need to use factoring method and the quadratic formula, the fundamental and double-angle identities. There is one trig equation involving a parameter on each card. Students are asked to solve the equation for four given different values of the parameter. Thus, students have four problems per card – problems 1A, 1B, 1C and 1D. Students can work in pairs (partner activity) or in groups of three and four (group activity). This is a wonderful way to get students working on different, but similar problems helping each other with methods. The cards can be used for independent work as well. The teacher or student can chose which problems to solve – like problems 1A, 2C, 3B, 4A, 5D, etc. Student recording sheet and answer keys are included.

In this engaging and collaborative group activity (for groups of four), students will practice operations on functions (adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing). There are 7 sections as each section has four subsections A, B, C and D (a total of 112 problems). In each subsection are given different pairs of functions as each partner has to perform adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing. The subsections are four so each partner to go through the fourth different operations on functions. In section 1 the given functions f(x) and g(x) are both linear. In section 2 f(x) is a quadratic binomial and g(x) is a linear function. Section 3: f(x) and g(x) are both quadratic binomials. Section 4: f(x) or g(x) is a cubic binomial and g(x) or f(x) is a quadratic trinomial. Section 5: f(x) and g(x) are both radical functions. Section 6: f and g are rational functions. Section 7: in subsections A and B f and g are both exponential functions and in subsections C and D f and g are both trigonometric functions. The teacher can choose on which sections the students to work on. This group activity may turn into competition between groups. ☞The resource can be also used as four different forms of independent practice. Answer keys are included.

This trigonometry activity consists of a total of 24 problems in which students will practice finding missing side and angle measures in right triangles using the sine, cosine, and tangent ratios. The problems are divided into six sections of four similar problems. The product is intended to be used for groups of maximum four members (there is a problem for each partner of the group in a section) . Solving similar problems in each section encourages the partners to help each other with methods. Moreover, this group activity may easily turn into a competition between groups. The product can be also used as an independent practice with four similar forms (form A, form B and forms C and D) if preferred. I have included a modified worksheet so the product can be used in this way. Here is the description of the problems in each section: Section 1&2 – given the hypotenuse and an acute angle. Section 3 – given an acute angle and its opposite side. Section 4 – given an acute angle and its adjacent side. Section 5 – given a leg and the hypotenuse. Section 6 – given the two legs. Students have to find the missing sides or/and angles. Answer keys are included.

This activity practices solving basic trigonometric equations. Students must find their primary solutions in the specific interval (0 ; 2π] and give answers in radian form. The process of solving involves only the use of the reciprocal identities and algebraic manipulation (such as collecting like terms) to isolate the trigonometric function on one side of the equation. Partners will each have their own set of fourteen equations. All the equations are well thought so the solutions of each equation on the specified interval are only two. The amusing part of this activity is creating compound words corresponding to each solution set of the trigonometric equations given. Partner A’ s equations are equivalent to partner B’ s equations, so the compound words made by one partner will be the same as the words made by the other partner. Thus, partners will be satisfied to know that they both have worked correctly and will be encouraged to collaborate. Activity Directions: Partners start solving individually their own problems. Once they have found the solution set of each equation, they are given two tables to use. There is a word corresponding to each radian written in table 1 . Using this table, students find which two words correspond to each solution set of their equations and make compound words. They record the solution set of each trigonometric equation and write down the compound word corresponding to it in table 2 . Students show detailed solutions on student recording sheets specially designed for this activity or they can solve the problems on a separate sheet of notebook paper. All answer keys are included.

This quiz game is designed to be used for groups of 4, 3 or 2 members. Students will practice solving rational equations ALL HAVING EXTRANEOUS SOLUTIONS using the most appropriate method for solving . The activity includes monomial, binomial, and trinomial denominators. The problems are well thought out so the partners have similar type of problems. This aims to encourage collaborative team-work. Activity Directions: There are 32 problems total, separated into four sets. Partners start solving their own set of equations and check for extraneous solutions. They “throw” the extraneous solution of each of the equations into its corresponding recycle bin on the “recycle bins board” given by writing the value of the extraneous root on the “falling” into the bin sheet of paper. The group which has thrown away all the extraneous solutions first and solved all the equations properly win. Student show detailed solutions on student recording sheets provided for this activity. All answer keys are provided as well.
