Ask them to watch videos before you teach content in class. If you typically view videos then discuss questions in class, try using Flip, reviewed here, to take questioning and collaboration to a new level. Upload a WooTube video to your Flip account, then have students record their questions and thoughts. Have students respond to comments made by peers, then discuss both content and student responses in the classroom.

Desmos Classroom offers a collection of engaging activities for use with the Desmos graphing calculator, reviewed here. The hundreds of activities offer learning experiences with math vocabulary, relationships of situations to graphs, and math investigations. The teacher dashboard allows teachers to view information on individual student work. Many activities offer opportunities for student collaboration during the learning experience. Each activity includes an approximate time for completing the task and a teacher guide for facilitating the experience. Free registration is required to create class codes, save assignments, and to follow student progress.

tag(s): calculators (37), charts and graphs (168), equations (119), problem solving (225), transformations (12)

In the Classroom

Use the Desmos calculator in place of expensive graphing calculators that many students may not have. Be sure to provide the link on your teacher page or wiki for easy access. Before assigning tasks in your 1:1 classroom, check for access on devices. Some tasks work on all devices; others may not work on mobile devices. These activities are perfect to accompany any graphing tasks. Assign more difficult tasks to higher achieving students, then ask them to create video explanations of their work using an online tool such as Free Screen Recorder Online, reviewed here, or Vibby, reviewed here, and share them on a site such as SchoolTube, reviewed here. Visual learners will love the activities on this site as they learn math vocabulary and concepts.

Illuminations offers over twenty interactives and activities specifically for teaching the Algebra strand in 9th through 12th grade. The large variety of interactives and activities provides opportunities for exploring how to solve equations, substitute in variable expressions, and expand and factor, practice arithmetic and algebraic skills, and investigate the important concept of equivalence; investigate tangent lines, derivatives, and area under a curve, and a lot more. You'll also find Dynamic Paper (create math manipulatives, such as pentagonal pyramid, a set of pattern blocks, a number line, and so on; all these in the size and shape you need). All interactives include complete instructions, an exploration, and correlation to standards.

tag(s): charts and graphs (168), critical thinking (112), data (146), functions (52), geometric shapes (135), number lines (33), percent (58), pi (26), quadratics (26), ratios (47)

In the Classroom

Keep this site with your professional favorites to find supporting technology and activities for teaching algebra. As you find practice or extension ideas for student use or at home reinforcement, share specific links on your class web page or classroom computer center for students to access independently or as you assign them for needed practice. Consider using a tool like Symbaloo, reviewed here, as an excellent way to organize and share your resources. The full list of interactives could be overwhelming for most parents, so share the specific areas that fit your curriculum.
