WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE?
- 2 PowerPoint Shows to display the board (version 2 incorporates logic puzzle clues if you want to make it extra fun)
- Teacher Directions
- Student Recording Sheet
- Grid Logic Puzzle (optional)
- Answer Keys
HOW DOES THE ACTIVITY WORK?
Teachers display the PowerPoint Show on the board. The home screen includes 26 buttons that each link to a polynomial to factor. Once students factor the polynomial, you will click the button to display the answer, then click the home button - the button clicked on the home screen will disappear, showing that students have already worked that problem.
Although a student recording sheet is included for students to show their work, I find this type of activity is a great opportunity to bring the marker boards out. Students love it!
There are 26 polynomials students can factor.
THESE FACTORING TYPES INCLUDE:
- Factor out a GCF
- Factor a Difference of Squares
- Factor a Quadratic Trinomial (5 problems include when a=1 and 5 problems include when a does not equal 1)
- Factor a 4-Term Polynomial
OPTION TO INCORPORATE THE GRID LOGIC PUZZLE:
Want to make the activity extra engaging? Use the Puzzle Version of the activity! I grew up loving logic puzzles and have often wondered how I could incorporate them into the Secondary Math classroom (without it being an activity students could do if they are done with their work).
The Version 2 PowerPoint Show is included, which provides 7 clues throughout the activity students will use to solve the grid logic puzzle. As there are 7 clues and 26 problems, not every "button" links to a clue. Clue buttons are included in the Teacher Directions and Information Handout. Logic Puzzle and answer key included.
This activity works well in conjunction with my Factoring Polynomials Unit for Algebra 1.
