One of the resources I’ve been asked for the most lately is student practice that is Google Classroom-friendly. So I’ve shared below practice that anyone can use with their students. Please follow the steps below:
Click on the picture and make a copy of the practice page.
Go to Google Classroom and create an assignment.
Click add and find the practice page you made a copy of.
Be sure to select make a copy for each student.
Now students will be able to type in the text boxes and turn it in. If you’d rather the directions in a video click here.

This page is dedicated to the skills cooperative learning sets I am creating to be used during our schools “Intervention/Enrichment Time.” During the intervention/enrichment time, students receive either enrichment or intervention instruction. A lot of the sets are created to limit the amount of ink needed, so I print these on colored paper. This page was last updated on 3/30/20.
A blog subscriber reached out and requested a quick practice for comparing fractions. Click on the image below to download. Also, please feel free to reach out with resource requests.
Teachers who have used the worksheets say they have made a difference in students’ confidence and competence with factoring. You can find the first worksheet I created here and the second set here. All sets have student worksheets and answer keys. Let me know in the comments what you are working on with your students! I’d love to create something for you to use in your classroom.
