Sample Student Projects
Using Zillow, students will understand the correlation between house size and house price. Students will create a scatterplot, draw a line of best fit, select points on the line of best fit to write an equation of the line, and make predictions.
Project includes:
Detailed, step-by-step directions, grading rubric.
Can be easily adapted to suit your needs.
This cheat sheet was made as a test modification for one of my inclusion special education students. The sheet includes characteristics to identify between each type, procedural solving steps for solving each, and examples of each for factoring greatest common factor, quadratics, difference of squares, difference of cubes, and sum of cubes. The student was able to solve and identify the polynomials independently with the use of this cheat sheet, and was also used as a great study guide.
This is a differentiated activity incorporating exponential functions and "The Grain of Rice Story." As a class, the story is read in play form. Students are assigned parts to read. Then students are broken into groups designated by readiness. Each group is assigned a task based on the story. All tasks require the groups to make a table, graph, and write an equation based on a situation related to the story read. Tasks increase in difficulty from 1 through 4. Groups must make a poster displaying
Looking for a fun way for students to learn addition and subtraction integer rules and apply them to addition problems? Students must solve 15 problems adding positive and negative numbers, choose the correct answer (A or B) and shade using the answer’s coordinating color. Students can cut out their final picture and hang around the room or on a bulletin board.
As a bonus I am including free 8.5 x 11 Integer Rules Posters for addition and subtraction. These are editable and fonts are embedded
Help students learn transformation rules through this engaging activity that requires higher level thinking. Students use the transformation rules to create an underwater theme on graph paper. Don't like the Little Mermaid? Change the directions to have students create a Halloween theme, zoo theme, etc. The steps for completion remain the same. I've tried several different themes and all work great! Students will demonstrate their understanding of translations, rotations, reflections and d
Students organize thinking about the number of solutions to a systems of linear equation- one, infinite, or zero. They write, draw, and create equations. Good for a note taking guide or as a follow up to an activity exploring this topic.
Includes a page of directions, blank printable Frayer map, and an answer key.
A great project for reviewing algebraic inequalities! Students must apply knowledge of verbal and variable expressions through real world application problems, as well as has them explain their answers in the context of the problem.
These are "I am Learning to" Statements (ALD developing learner) and "I Can" Statements (ALD proficient learner). These will help you keep your lesson plans organized and determine your learning targets.
This is one document containing three items:Introduction to Quadratic Factoring - Guided NotesFactoring Anchor Chart (with steps and example problem)Practice Activity - Solve the RiddleI created these activities for my 8th grade Algebra 1 students a few years ago, as I was not a fan of the book explanation. However, I have changed and edited them with each time I've taught it. I am now an Algebra 2 teacher, and I use this same activity to refresh factoring for them. Answer keys are provided for

These algebra 1 vocabulary words can be posted around your room or in a central area to remind students about what they are learning. Cutout the vocabulary words and allow students to draw pictures of what each word means. Hang these up around the room to display student work and help build vocabulary for all learners, including ELL and MLL students.
This is a Common Core System of Linear Equations project in which students work in pairs or in groups to determine if it is worth paying more now or later for a car. Students select from two different types of cars one being a hybrid car and the other being a "gas guzzler" car. Students are given their mph, how much they drive a week and gas cost to determine how much each car cost a year and over time. Then students have to analyze the information by creating tables, a graph, equations, verbal
Algebra Posters for Linear EquationsJust a simple resource for teachers/homeschool teachers to use in their classroom to help students learn the formulas for linear equations and slope. Posters will be a word document and can be edited to your liking.
This conversion cheat sheet allowed my special education students to understand how to write conversions. They didn't even know that in. stood for inches, and this chart did the trick. We blew this up so all students could access it, and all students responded well to it.
This easy-to-read chart shows students how to add, subtract, multiply and divide Scientific Notation problems. It can be used as notes, a supplement to notes or a valuable resource for students to keep with them.
This graphic organizer explains the rules of multiplication and divsion when using integer operations. The organizer also provides a model, as well as an example.
This is a template that helps you organization calculator assignments. Take a sharpie and write numbers on your calculators, 1-35. Then, type in student names to the template and print out. Display it near the calculators in your room. Another method for this is to print and laminate. Then, write on the laminated sheet with an expo marker or sharpie. Essential for anyone that uses calculators in the classroom!
