An introductory lesson on the Pythagorean Theorem, focusing on identifying right triangles, understanding the relationship between sides, and calculating the hypotenuse through a construction-themed lens.

Students bridge the gap between 2D geometry and 3D space by constructing physical models of rectangular and triangular prisms. They identify faces, measure dimensions, and calculate total surface area through hands-on assembly.

A comprehensive 7th-grade math review focused on NYS common core standards, simulating a test environment with confidence-building exercises and error analysis.

A comprehensive workshop focused on mastering rational number operations and common CCSS 7th grade math misconceptions in preparation for the NYS test.

A collaborative lesson where students work in specialized roles to master compound probability of independent events with replacement through step-by-step mission scenarios.

A foundational lesson on multi-digit multiplication using color-coded place value strategies and the area model to support students working significantly below grade level.

An inquiry-based exploration of triangular and square numbers where students discover formulas through visual manipulation and structural analysis.

A 90-minute substitute-ready packet covering linear expressions, one- and two-step equations, probability, and statistics. Students act as "logic engineers" to solve real-world modeling problems and analyze data sets.

A 90-minute substitute-ready packet focusing on operations with integers, rational numbers, proportions, and scale factors. Students work through a series of "blueprint" challenges to apply their number sense and proportional reasoning.

A comprehensive 5E lesson exploring the intersection of geometry and arithmetic through triangular and square numbers. Students will identify patterns, build geometric representations, and derive algebraic formulas for figurative numbers.

A high-stakes escape room challenge where students solve PEMDAS expressions involving exponents to crack the vault code. Students act as digital detectives navigating four distinct security layers.

A lesson introducing the distributive property through the metaphor of a delivery service, featuring guided and independent practice.

Students will model the exponential growth of a pepper population, starting from one pepper and doubling every season, to understand the power of geometric growth.

Students explore geometric similarity through art and tessellations, applying ratios and proportional parts to create scaled masterpieces.
