A comprehensive 7th Grade Math review session using an "Infinity Maze" format. Students navigate a series of interconnected problems across Ratios, Number Systems, Equations, and Geometry, designed to loop back and provide continuous practice.
A curriculum unit tracing the development of linear equations. Students journey from ancient informal heuristics (False Position) to modern symbolic algebraic equations.
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 highly visual, print-friendly, color-coded one-page laminated-style reference sheet for geometry students. It breaks down PEMDAS, explains what a variable is, demonstrates 1-step and 2-step equations using inverse operations with dual-direction arrow boxes, and applies these skills directly to geometry perimeter and area problems.
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 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.
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.
