A hands-on geometry project where students act as urban planners to design a city using specific geometric shapes, angles, and area/perimeter calculations. Students will bridge the gap between abstract geometry and real-world architecture.
An introductory lesson focused on the multiplicative relationship between place values and the formal representation of decimals through various forms and comparisons.
A collection of resources to support students completing their summer geometry packet, focusing on algebra foundations and geometric word problem applications.
A lesson focused on identifying key features (vertex, intercepts) and graphing quadratic equations across standard, vertex, and factored forms.
A comprehensive lesson on rounding numbers, specially designed for students with IEPs. Covers rounding to the nearest 10, 100, whole number, and largest place value using visual aids and scaffolded practice.
A modified coordinate plane lesson for IEP students focusing on plotting points in all four quadrants to create a seasonal flower image. Includes scaffolding such as color-coding and directional prompts.
A comprehensive geometry review covering triangle construction, angle relationships, and 2D/3D measurements. Students take on the role of an architect to master essential geometric principles.
A high-energy, spy-themed review of the order of operations featuring nested groupings (parentheses, brackets, braces), exponents, and decimal operations. Students take on the role of codebreakers to solve complex numerical missions.
A comprehensive lesson on plotting points, identifying quadrilaterals, and calculating distances on the coordinate plane. Students use cartography-themed materials to master 6th-grade geometry and number system standards.
An introduction to the coordinate plane, focusing on identifying the x-axis, y-axis, and the origin to begin plotting ordered pairs.
A beginner-friendly introduction to the four-quadrant coordinate plane, specifically designed with scaffolding and visual aids for students with diverse learning needs. Students will practice plotting points to reveal basic shapes, emojis, holiday symbols, and characters.
An engaging, hands-on lesson for 5th graders on adding fractions with like and unlike denominators. Uses a pizzeria theme to make abstract concepts concrete and relatable for students who struggle with engagement.
A comprehensive 7th-grade math lesson on triangle classification and angle relationships, featuring a blueprint-inspired aesthetic and tiered differentiation. Students will master visual identification, algebraic solving, and precise measurement using protractors.
A focused challenge on identifying triangle congruence theorems through formal proofs, requiring students to complete statement-reason tables.
A focused lesson on applying the distance formula to coordinate geometry and real-world map scenarios, featuring radical simplification and spatial reasoning.
An 8th grade Algebra lesson focused on interpreting slope and y-intercept in the context of scatter plots and lines of best fit, specifically designed for Special Education students with IEP supports.
A simplified introduction to plotting points on a coordinate plane (Quadrant 1) to create the signature "Brantley". Designed specifically for IEP students with large grids and clear instructions.
Students learn to plot coordinates to form letters and their own names. This lesson includes differentiated materials for Quadrant I, simplified 5x5 grids, and all four quadrants, with built-in tracing supports for IEP students.
