Inequality Word Problems Self-Checking Worksheet

Inequality word problems always give my students trouble on standardized tests. I use this self-checking worksheet to give them some extra practice with tricky phrases such as "at least", "no more than", etc. When solved correctly the letters will spell QUARTILE. I find that using a word makes it easy to check at a glance as I walk around the room how my students are doing. Enjoy!

THANKSGIVING LOGIC Included in this resource are 5 logic puzzles on separate pages, ready to be solved! Let your students know that your class is all about thinking and sticking with a problem until it is “puzzled out.” Students too often see mathematics as a set of rules to know and follow. However, real mathematics, in life outside of school is not so algorithmic. In addition, questions presented on state tests ask students to think beyond the rules. The simplest word problems ask them to

Eddie McCarthy
This lesson is meant to be used as guided notes for a whole class. Students begin by learning what makes 2 events independent. After slowly working through a problem about rolling a die and choosing a card, they discover that they can multiply probabilities when working with these compound events. They then attempt problems involving picking marbles from a bag. Next, they learn about dependent events, and finally, mutually exclusive events. The last 2 pages are a copy of the key.

Creating An Equation From A Word Problem

The purpose of this activity is to encourage students to think about what they are solving for before trying to solve. Many times, students scramble to create an equation without putting thought into why those numbers are used in the order they are intended. This activity gives students a real-world scenario. The students are asked to make a quick guess of what they think the answer will be, make a drawing, create and solve the equation, then write what their answer means. 12 Problems are inc
