This 15 poster scavenger hunt requires students to examine the characteristics of linear function graphs. Have students analyze a question and find the graph that matches the information.
Students will:
Determine the x and y-intercepts for a linear equation written in standard form.
After finding the information, students will find the graph that matches their intercepts.
Students will write down the correct letter on their answer sheet.
Extension idea - Have students rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form.
This is a great review of intercepts from standard form after instruction or before a test.
This 10 poster scavenger hunt requires students to use knowledge of imaginary and complex numbers and simplify using the distributive property. Students can start at any poster and simplify the expression. Once they have an answer they will look around the room for the poster with the matching answer. Students repeat the process until they get back to their original poster.
Why do students and teachers love this?
Students get automatic feedback on their work using scavenger hunts.
We've had nothing but success using this lesson as a review for a quiz/test or as extra practice after introducing complex numbers.

This great activity is a self-checking loop of problems. This set is all to do with factoring when a=1. Students choose to start with any question they'd like, determine the answer, and look for it around the room. Once they find the answer, they complete the question on that specific page. The questions are in a big loop so when the student returns back to their original page, they are finished. This is a fantastic way to have a self-checking review. Students know immediately if they did something wrong with their calculations. It also allows students to spread out and work at their own pace.
This is a 4 clue practice based off the popular board game. Students will work through 4 clues to find the suspect, an accomplice, weapon and location. Students will use knowledge of solving systems of linear functions using three methods; substitution, linear combination (or addition) and graphing. Students will also use linear combination to solve four word problems.
Students are given a cipher to turn their number answers into letters. Cut out both circles and spin the numbers to match the appropriate letter.
Students are also provided a score sheet, just like the game, so they can mark off their final answer. Have them turn in their answers and work to see if they've found all the right information!

My students absolutely loved this lesson and learned so much in the process! This experiment is designed to compare what happens to gummy bears when left in 4 different solutions for 48 hours. The experiment was designed to highlight the teaching of the scientific method but can certainly be adapted for other concepts. A matching activity of the scientific method is also included. This lesson would be great with a daily skills high school class, middle school science or any elementary science class.
This is a math scavenger hunt that focuses on students ability to identify x and y-intercepts of linear functions in standard and slope intercept form. This is a great practice activity or refresher from students in all types of algebra. We love these activities because they let students work independently and assess their own work. This gives them ownership of their work, which they love. We have had nothing but success using scavenger hunts in our math classes! This is definitely one of our favorites!

This review is for exponential functions. Just like everyone else our new common core curriculum has changed things around. This review takes exponents a step further than the other one we've posted. The review includes multiplying exponents, dividing exponents, power of zero negative exponents, translations, rational and radical form and reflections of exponential functions. . A power point slide with directions on how to play the relay race game is attached. These directions are very common but you can play in whatever way you'd like. Also attached are questions to cut out and an answer sheet for each student.
This class project is sure to be a hit with any and all of your students! Students have been hired as consultants for Monsters University to solve some team problems. Students must use the provided data to create a linear regression (line of best fit, least squares equation) in order to determine a correlation coefficient. Afterwards, students identify residuals for each piece of data. After collecting all the necessary information, students are led through questions related to the organization. When I did this in class I gave all three (3 similar projects all found on our page) and let them choose. The choices were mixed and the students loved that they were able to individualize the days lesson depending on their interests. After students were finished each group received a reporting form. This is the form the "consultants" would hand their employer to summarize their findings. This was absolutely a hit in our class! We have actually created three similar scenarios to cover the same information. If you want all three projects I have bundled each for just 5.99!
This bundle contains 3 activities to practice x and y intercepts.
Matching - Requires students to match an equation (standard and slope-intercept forms) to graphs and their intercepts
Intercepts Scavenger Hunt - Students determine the x and y-intercepts from an equation and find the matching intercepts
Standard Form Scavenger Hunt - Students determine the x and y-intercepts from an equation in standard form and find the matching graph.
This scavenger hunt requires students to use knowledge of midline, period, amplitude and y-intercepts to characterize different sine and cosine functions and their graphs.
Students start at any poster, answer the question, and find the answer on another poster around the room. If done correctly, they will end up back at the same poster. This is a great activity to have students self-check their knowledge.

This matching activity is designed to be practice for students in finding the x- and y-intercepts of a graph and from an equation. Students will have to use critical thinking skills in order to match the three sets. Finding intercepts is a difficult task for students to attain. This practice will help students see the relation between an ordered pair, equation of a line and a graphed line.

Let your students practice their equation solving skills by having them work through problems to try and escape the hidden shrine. Students will solve equations that will lead them to different pieces of the amulet. Once students have found all the pieces of the amulet they must put them together for victory. Watch out though, if you choose the wrong answer, you may be caught by the hidden monkey guards!
This practice will require students to use their knowledge of basic equation solving. Each challenge will require a different set of skills. Students will need to solve basic two step equations, combine like terms, and use inverses for solving with fractions.

This worksheet is for students to practice writing checks. Scenarios are given and the students need to write the checks appropriately.
For my class, this was used in a high school life skills lesson.
This is a set of 10 stations requiring students to determine unknown side lengths or angles. QR codes are provided on each station for students to check their answers. Our students also needed extra practice identifying the proper sides of a triangle so that is included as well on 5 stations. We had our students start with these 5 first to make sure their understanding of triangle sides was adequate.
This lesson was a resounding success on reviewing and practicing unknown side lengths and angles. Students were required to use sine, cosine and tangent. They will also need to know the inverse functions to solve for the unknown angles.
