Geometric rotations can be a very challenging concept for 8th-grade math students, but with the right approach, it can become an engaging and accessible topic. Rotations involve turning a shape around a fixed point (the origin for the purposes of this blog), and mastering this skill is crucial for understanding geometry. In this blog post,… Continue reading The Best Way I’ve Found to Teach Rotations in 8th Grade Math.

A Heartfelt Approach to Teaching Slope-Intercept Equations
My 8th grade math students have mostly gotten pretty good at writing equations in slope-intercept form. Sure some still get the reciprocal of the slope, especially when working from horizontal tables and some still struggle to always solve correctly. Overall though, they are so much improved. If they have a weakness though it is on… Continue reading A Heartfelt Approach to Teaching Slope-Intercept Equations
