all about lines

Spring Break Day 1
The girls have Easter dresses and shoes.
Oh...and a take out box from Candy Craze.
And my poor laptop is officially broken.
My sweet hubby brought it back to life after a worm.
Then the keyboard did something funky.
I'm trying to survive without my right hand.

Just before Spring Break, I gave my geometry students a Benchmark diagnostic test. They quickly realized the 8th grade math curriculum involves a lot of algebra...particularly lines. So I tweaked an activity that we did last year to meet our review needs.

This deck of cards is so very versatile. I use the table of values and algebraic equation cards in my 7th grade math. And then we move on and use the algebraic equations and the graphs. But in my 7th grade algebra class we use all four sets to analyze graphically, algebraically, numerically, and verbally. Visit my TpT store to add this to your algebra files. Stay tuned for a similar product for exponential functions and quadratic functions...

Hope your week is off to a great start...make it count!
