7th Grade Word Problems Lesson

The Super Burger is an 8th Grade math activity that gives students the opportunity to create and use linear functions to solve a real-world problem. This 3-page printable activity gives students three increasingly challenging scenarios in which they must create, graph, and use a linear function based on the menu of a fast food burger chain.

Great as a summation activity at the end of a linear function unit, this differentiated task starts students with a basic proportional situation, then increases in challenge in each following task. As students reach each new task, the teacher can assess how students are doing along the way and use this formative assessment to help guide any needed intervention before there is an assessment.

This lesson can be done as a whole class direct instruction lesson, as a partner activity, or even with whole table groups to encourage problem solving and math discussion.

This lesson includes the following materials:

• Complete lesson directions with suggestion on how to teach it in your classroom.
• Printable student activity packet (3 pages).
• Complete worked out solutions.

If you have been looking for a good linear functions formative assessment or team-based activity, this lesson is a great fit.

After using several visual patterns as warm ups building up to writing equations, I created this to push my students to figure out how to determine the slope and y intercept of an equation from a table that skips x values and doesn't include 0.

This worked great with Building Thinking Classroom practices, especially with students who are familiar with writing equations from visual patterns. I've personally used it with advanced 6th graders and 7th graders.

A detailed answer key and questions/hints for pushing students thinking are included.

I've also included links to several Desmos activities that I and others have made that help students develop a deeper understanding of writing equations with meaningful feedback (not just telling them if they are right or wrong but showing why).

My Other Thinking Classroom Tasks

Noncurricular Task: Estimating Rational and Irrational Numbers

Rectangle Area and Perimeter Thinking Problems

My students sometimes have a hard time differentiating between area, volume and perimeter. This 10-slide presentation gives real-life situations and asks them which of the three they'd use to solve the problems. Similar to how they'd solve written problems, except there are no numbers - just images and concepts to get them thinking.

This takes the fear out of written problems (raise your hand if your students get spooked!) and gives them an idea (without numbers involved) to think outside the box about these three operations!
