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.

Equation Domino Bundle

Equation Domino Bundle

(0)
Students practice solving one step, two step and multi-step one variable equations with integer answers. Great for review and practice as well as targeted intervention for struggling learners. Students cut apart and shuffle dominoes and then draw an equal number for their hand. The student with the start places that domino first and then students solve the equations in their hands to see who can place the next domino. Student who uses all their dominoes wins. Package include 3 sets of each: 8, 12, 16 and 24 dominoes. Smaller set is ideal for partner practice while the larger sets are great for groups of 3 or 4. Buying the bundle saves you money versus buying the 3 sets individually and includes One Step, Two Step and Multi Step Equation Dominoes from Blue Mountain Math. My classroom always features Fun Friday where we play review games and activities to develop skills in a collaborative atmosphere.

Corner Collaboration--Finding the Discriminant

(0)
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.

Multiplying Scientific Notation Matching Card Set

(0)
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.

Corner Collaboration--Pythagorean Theorem

(0)
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.
Quadratic Quartet

Quadratic Quartet

(0)
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.
