Recognizing Variables in Expressions

By Colleen Burdette

Hands on introduction to variables:

Students are more invested when they can move, even a little bit. This activity has students organizing cards into two categories: variable and no variable. They will recognize that letters are used for terms in expressions that are unknown.

Teachers can use these cards in a variety of ways. I have put Velcro on the back of the card and made posters with Velcro labelled "variable" and "no variable". Students in teams raced to place their cards on the correct poster. A super fun activity to introduce variables.


What's included:

  • Instructions.
  • Category title cards.
  • 14 expression cards.

Why is this product useful:

  • Can be used in a variety of ways.
  • Easy prep for the teacher.
  • Great introduction to recognition of variables.

5th Grade Algebra Review Game - Game Show Style

By The M-Intercept

Students will love this Jeopardy-like review game to review all 5th Grade Operations and Algebraic Thinking standards. Questions focus on solving expressions, writing expressions, equivalent expressions, analyzing patterns, mixed review, and key vocabulary words. Points range from 100 - 500, which reflect the increase in difficulty throughout each category.

**FULLY EDITABLE** While the game is complete, it is also editable in PowerPoint, making it easy to add questions or change the level of difficulty based on your students' needs.

The game includes 30 high quality questions - 6 categories with 5 questions each ranging in
difficulty from basic review (100) to challenging (500)

Solve Expressions: these questions require students to solve equations using the order of operations. All expressions are straightforward whole numbers, except the 500 point question, which has fractions.

Write Expressions: this category asks students to write expressions from phrases such as "nine more than six" and then increases in difficulty to writing an expression to match a real-world problem.

Equivalent Expressions: students are asked about whether or not expressions are equivalent based on the order of operations, use of parentheses and different ways to display division symbols.

Analyze Patterns: these questions involve continuing a pattern such as "add 8" and continue on to questions matching real-world situations. Some questions require reading and/or using a table or the coordinate plane.

Mixed Review: students are asked computation problems to review adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing, as well as questions involving place value.

Vocabulary: this section asks about parentheses, expressions, evaluating, x and y coordinates, and corresponding terms.

Graphing Linear Functions Differentiated Review Activity | Grade 8 Math

By EZMath

Level Ups are a fun way for your students to practice or review graphing linear functions in both slope-intercept form and standard form. Aligned to the common core standards, this Level Ups activity includes 5 differentiated tasks that increase in rigor. The task cards begin with pre-requisite skills involving proportional relationships and the basics of slope and y-intercept, then "level up" all the way to creating an appropriately scaled graph for a given linear function scenario.

Students start at level zero and work their way up to level 4, giving them accurate feedback on what they have mastered, and what they still need to work on. This lesson works as a great way to review what is and is not a function, or as preparation for an upcoming assessment.

This activity includes:

  • Suggested activity instructions (based on how I run this in my classroom).
  • Five levels with 6 - 8 questions each.
  • The final level includes 2 word problems where students must scale their own graph based on the domain and range of the scenario.
  • Complete answer keys for each level.

My students love "Level Up Day" in my own classroom, and the activity works great as independent practice, a pairs activity, or even group work. I also use this when I need a majority of students working independently while I pull a small group for intervention.

If you enjoy this activity, please check out my other Level Up products, or my Team Target Review series, which encourages group work and rich math discussion.
