A comprehensive lesson on calculating the area of irregular rectilinear shapes by decomposing them into smaller rectangles. Includes tiered practice, a project-based learning guide, and a detailed assessment rubric.

Students will learn to find the area of regular and irregular polygons by decomposing them into smaller rectangles, using a 'Shape Surgeon' approach.

A lesson on identifying functions from tables and graphs using the 'Function Factory' metaphor. Students explore the unique output rule through visual and numerical patterns.

A series of 3 hands-on centers focused on equivalent fractions using shapes, fraction strips, and number lines to build conceptual understanding.

A quick warm-up session to prepare students for the Graphing Patterns Checkpoint, focusing on proportional relationships, data tables, and coordinate graphing.

A mini-lesson designed to help students identify key information and break multi-step fraction word problems into manageable parts.

A comprehensive lesson focused on breaking down two-step word problems using a blueprint strategy to identify operations and translate words into expressions.

A comprehensive review session covering fraction equivalency, simplification, mixed number conversions, and basic operations with unlike denominators.

This lesson focuses on understanding absolute value as distance from zero and comparing rational numbers. It includes a student review packet and a corresponding answer key to reinforce skills from the lesson, with a special emphasis on ordering mixed rational numbers.

Focuses on adding and subtracting mixed numbers with like denominators, emphasizing the regrouping process and visual decomposition.

Focuses on the conceptual link between mixed numbers and improper fractions using visual models and the 'Multiply and Add' method.
