Solving Equations and Inequalities Activity (Connect the Dots)
This is an activity to help students understand solving Equations and Inequalities. The front side of the activity has a variety of problems that, when solved correctly, tell which dots to connect in order to create a hidden picture on the back! Just in case you are wondering, yes, that is in fact Harry Potter! Students enjoy trying to figure out what picture is hidden behind all the math; this is a great puzzle activity and a great “thinker!”

Linear Functions vs Exponential Functions
This is a comparison between linear and exponential functions (to help meet common core state standards). Students are given a situation (word problem) and asked to write if it is linear or exponential, an equation to represent it, and complete a table. Will lead to great discussions comparing situations. Word file so you can edit to meet your needs.

Representations of Inequalities - Notes and Practice
The first page of this file includes guided notes about simple and compound inequalities:
- Keywords (e.g., "at least" means greater than or equal to)
- Verbal description (e.g., "x is greater than 4")
- Number line
- Inequality notation < > etc.
- Interval notation
On the second page, students solve simple linear inequalities and represent their solutions in three ways:
- Inequality notation
- Interval notation
- Number line

Multiplying and Dividing Monomials (Guided Notes on Exponent Rules)
This lesson is meant to be used as guided notes for a whole class. Students begin by learning what IS and IS NOT a monomial. They then multiply some monomials in order to discover the rule: We can add their exponents. After solving a few problems, they do the same thing with dividing monomials to discover that rule: Subtracting the exponents. Finally, students are shown a proof/explanation as to why a number raised to the power of 0 equals 1. *This lesson is definitely just an intro to multiplyi

Solving Absolute Value Inequalities (Guided Notes)
This lesson is meant to be used as guided notes for a whole class.
Students begin by learning the steps to solving absolute value inequalities. There are 2 scenarios: greater than signs or less than signs. In order to remember how to solve these, they are presented with the mnemonic device GORLAND! (Greater than = or, less than = and) Then they solve a few problems using this new word they have just learned. Finally, they are shown examples of a few problems where there would be no solution.

Solve Systems of Equations by Substitution Visual Activity
This is a student tested activity. Solving systems of equations with substitution can seem so abstract to students. The visual part of the activity has students actually cutting out the part that is substituted! I have taught this concept for 10+ years and this has to be the best way I have found to introduce this to students. The activity comes with directions and an answer key.

Negative Exponents (Guided Notes)
This lesson is meant to be used as guided notes for a whole class. Students begin by learning the rule for negative exponents, followed by a simple proof/explanation of why. After learning that 1 raised to any number equals 1, they begin working with negative exponents. They are shown how to rewrite negative exponent expressions with positive exponents, and vice versa. Next, they are challenged to rewrite fractions as expressions with negative exponents. For example, they see how to rewrite 1/25

Solving Compound Inequalities (Guided Notes)
This lesson is meant to be used as guided notes for a whole class.The first half of the lesson is about compound inequalities involving the word AND. They first learn that x>7 and x<11 can be written as 7<x<11. Then they learn how to solve and graph these. Later, they learn about compound inequalities with the word OR and how these differ. This lesson should most likely be 2 separate days. The last 4 pages are a copy of the key.Related activity:Solving Compound Inequalities - Word Sc
