"The Answers Are..." is a great Non-Curricular Thinking Task your secondary math students can all access, no matter their skill level. Each task card gives a number bank with 10 integers and 5 target answers your students must create. Using each number in the bank only one time each, students work in random teams of three to create all 5 expressions by adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing. It's more challenging than you might think!

If you are implementing Building Thinking Classrooms this year, "The Answers Are..." is a great thinking task to do with your students at your Vertical Whiteboard stations during the first week of school. Once they solve one of the puzzles, they will keep coming back for more.

This lesson includes the following:

• 10 Different Task Cards using Integers
• Solutions for each Task Card
• Complete lesson instructions and pacing
• A Free Canva Template to create your own Task Cards

This activity works great as...

• a beginning of school thinking task for grades 8 and up
• a challenging activity for your 7th grade students
• an extension activity for your 6th grade students
• a way to get your students out of their seats, standing at their whiteboards, and thinking deeply about math.

Check out the preview to see the full lesson directions!

Thank you for your interest in my lessons. I hope your students enjoy them as much as mine do.

Algebraic substitution is not very exciting at best. Finding a formula that always generates prime numbers will make you world famous. This task card combines the two math skills into an exciting discovery exercise. Students get to explore the effectiveness of certain formulas in generating primes (while they are doing lots of substitution). Eventually they will see that this exercise is futile, but will hopefully have fun on the journey.

Feel free to use this product as

• a task
• an assessment
• for groupwork
• an intro into the use of Google Sheets

Do your students struggle with factoring? Students need to practice pre-factoring skills of using the Diamond Method. This is a set of notes and practice worksheets for you to print and go. My students struggle when we start factoring with a=1 or a>1 to find the numbers that would fit the requirements. This guides students in this process. Use this for pre-teaching, independent practice, or for math intervention.

Included: Two notes and three practice sheets. The first section for notes is when there is a positive number for a x c at the top of the diamond. The second section for notes is when there is a negative number for a x c at the top of the diamond. Practice sheet #1 is for a positive a x c. Practice #2 is for a negative a x c. Practice #3 is a mixture of each.

This is a comprehensive poster on The Order of Operations. It comes with FOUR VERSIONS of the same poster formulated to PEMDAS, PEDMAS, BODMAS and BIDMAS. One thing that we find a lot of guided posters on this subject lack is an explanation of WHY there is an Order of Operations, and why it is in that order. We hope that this poster will change that, and give learners a deeper understanding of why The Order of Operations are so important as well as explaining the order itself.
