Digital Classroom Slides
We have created a copy of the lessons that can be shared in your Digital Classroom. The slides are the same but the Teacher’s Notes and Answers have been removed.
LESSON PLANS (CLICK HERE TO PREVIEW ONE OF OUR LESSON PLANS)
We have created lessons that correspond to each of the expectations of the Ontario curriculum. All lessons follow a 3-part format including expectations, learning goals, examples, minds-on activities, action activities, extension/discussion activities, and consolidation activities. In some instances, there are two lessons to cover an expectation because of the depth and/or difficulty. I would suggest you move on at a pace appropriate for your students.

STATIONS (CENTRES)
Give your students to work on the material in a different way. I use this an opportunity to spend some time with GUIDED GROUPS (Questions included) for the first half of the period and monitor/assess during the second half of the period. If you have a challenging class, this can a difficult routine to establish, but well worth the effort!
- Two guided stations

- Manipulatives
- Problem Solving
- (Media) Video Links
STUDY GUIDE and UNIT TEST (with answer keys).
I give the students the STUDY GUIDE at the beginning of the unit and have them meet with me periodically before the test to ensure they understand the material
I HAVE… WHO HAS … ACTIVITIES (Using the General Term)
I have found that these activities are an excellent way to review skills.
BINGO (Find the value of the variable in the equation)
VOCABULARY WORD SEARCH
TRACKING TEMPLATES
