A quick assessment on identifying quadrants and plotting points on a four-quadrant coordinate plane.
A 10-day instructional unit on rigid transformations and congruence mapping for 8th-grade mathematics, aligned with NC Math Standard 8.G.2. The sequence covers translations, reflections, and rotations, emphasizing coordinate rules, properties verification using patty paper, and composition of transformations to define and prove congruence.
An interactive pre-algebra and algebraic reasoning lesson themed around spycraft and decryption. Students use variables, order of operations, and one-step equations to break secret codes, map hidden locations, and design their own visual ciphers.
A professional 2-page teacher guide and answer key for Cipher Breakers. It outlines teaching pacing, pedagogical strategies for modeling variables, GEMS checklists, common student misconceptions, and fully visualized step-by-step solutions for both the stage 1 equation decryption and the stage 2 coordinate mapping.
A curriculum unit tracing the development of linear equations. Students journey from ancient informal heuristics (False Position) to modern symbolic algebraic equations.
A highly engaging 60-minute tutoring lesson for incoming 7th graders that connects reading comprehension and math. Students read about a teen upcycled-fashion entrepreneur to practice reading fluency and summarization, then solve real-world multiplication and division word problems about her business using variables and visual tape diagrams.
An immersive, high-impact 5-slide introductory math presentation for the Cipher Breakers lesson. Using a top-secret spy briefing theme, it teaches pre-algebra concepts including variables, inverse operations for one-step equations, and order of operations, with all text sized above 24px for classroom legibility.
A summer-long math intervention bypassing rote memorization of multiplication to build intuitive pre-algebraic thinking using visual grids, helper facts, and balance puzzles.
A basic math lesson on sales, discounts, returns, and credits. Designed with accommodations: decodable text, highly familiar store items, minimal word count, large font sizes, extra-large workspaces, and direct dollar-off math with no regrouping across zeros.
A highly engaging, 2-page printable classified math dossier for middle school pre-algebra. Page 1 tasks students with solving one-step algebraic equations to decrypt a top-secret passcode; Page 2 uses order of operations coordinates to chart a hidden safehouse location on an interactive grid.
A 5-day instructional sequence designed to scaffold fraction addition. Students progress from combining fractions with like denominators to finding equivalent fractions, modeling unlike denominators, drawing their own fraction bars, and solving realistic math challenges.
A 45-minute 7th-grade math lesson focusing on multiplying and dividing integers and applying the order of operations. Through a courtroom-themed narrative, students resolve mathematical 'disputes' using real-world modeling and guided peer collaboration.
Un ensemble de cartes mentales et d'infographies pédagogiques pour guider les élèves de collège (4ème, 3ème) dès la rentrée.
