Algebra I Resource for Teachers

This compilation of activities and possible projects intends to serve as a resource for teachers of Algebra I.

I wanted my students to have confidence in their Algebra I skills and knowledge.

I wanted my students to use technology to discover, describe, and display mathematical ideas found in Algebra I.

Though this will continue to be a work in progress, I find it is a great starting point to enhance my teaching.

Possible Uses:
Portfolio project built throughout the semester. (hard copy or electronic)
Lesson introductions
Lab activities-(reinforcement)
Extensions
End-of-semester review
