It is always a good strategy to review essential skills with your students, and this is right up there with the most essential!

Slope (Gradient) is a very practical real-life experience for all of us - we climb stairs daily and walk up and down very steep and less steep inclines. In this practical, outside activity, students encounter slope first hand and then make sense of the mathematics behind it. Students are then encouraged to think about the real-life applications and implications that slope has in the life of people like the elderly and the handicapped.

Linear equations, slope, rise over run, gradient, y=mx+b.

It is always a good strategy to review essential skills with your students, and this is right up there with the most essential!

In this fun, real-life exercise, students learn about the growth of large pumpkins in the Washington County Fair Pumpkin Competition. Students will use and improve the following skills:

• Plotting points on the coordinate plane
• Finding the y-value when given the x-value and visa versa
• Finding the relationship (equation) between two variables.
• Real-life problem-solving
• Completing the data in a table from a given graph.
• Extrapolating from given data and making predictions.

The focus is to make the straight line equation and its graph practical and applicable to a real life event - working for an hourly wage and getting paid a set amount per shift. Students get to graph equations with the table method, build the equation of a real-life example, solve simultaneous equations graphically and through the values in a table, and make some real-life choices about employment with their knowledge. Get them excited about the knowledge that they get to make their own decisions about who to work for, or what jobs they can choose to do!

This resource works great as ...

• an assessment exercise
• a task
• independent work
• distance learning
• math stations
• math centers
• homework

Knowing every detail on your calculator and how it works, is the BEST feeling... as you do not have to interrupt your teacher a hundred times for help!

Independent work by students – no prep needed by teacher. Just print a copy of the tutorial and task for each student and watch them learn how to use their calculators well. This step by step Exponents and Roots Tutorial, with images of the calculator and the relevant keys, guides students to independently become 100% comfortable with their calculator. The aim of the tutorial is DIY for students. Print the tutorial, hand it to students and watch them be able to ...

1. Calculate the square and square root of all numbers.

2. Calculate any higher power than 2 of any number.

3. Calculate any root other than the square root of any number.

4. Do complex computations with all exponents and roots using their calculator.

Also, take a look at the task Cards and Key of this same calculator, on the same topic, and get the two together. You will find it here:

Square root, Square, Cube Root, Cube, Powers of 2, Powers of 3, Exponents, Raising numbers to powers, raising numbers to exponents, Taking the roots of whole numbers

When should students use a calculator in mathematics? When fluency with mathematical procedures without the help of a calculator are well established, students should be able to use calculators with more complex mathematical problems, real-life applications and calculations involving very large and small numbers.

A real-Life Math activity that children can do to practice Linear equations.

This resource (task with complete key) practices student's skills to solve a system of linear equations in at least the following three ways:
