This post has been a long time in the making! It's a collection of free math cheat sheets that you can print and give to students for their math notebooks or even enlarge into anchor charts. Some I made for my own students, others came from teacher requests. Some of the algebra 1 and 2 cheat sheets in this post now also include links to short video tutorials.
I started writing this post in 2017 to share the math reference sheets I was making for my algebra 2 students. A lot of those sheets can also be used to support algebra 1 students. Since 2017, I've added a bunch more math cheat sheets to this post, mainly for students in algebra and algebra 2, and some for younger kids based on teacher requests. Some now include video tutorials.
The math cheat sheets in this post can easily be enlarged into anchor charts to be used as large classroom references. Here is a quadratic keywords poster that I enlarged to 4 pages at home with Adobe Acrobat Reader DC:
If you're planning to enlarge the sheets into posters, you may be interested in additional math word walls that can be displayed on your classroom walls throughout the year.
Below are links to all of the free math cheat sheets on my blog. Clicking on an image will bring you to its post where the sheet can be downloaded.

Help. I can't find the math cheat sheets...I keep circling around. I'd really like to see them.
ReplyDeleteIf you click on the blue "MATH CHEAT SHEETS" in this post you will be taken to all of my posts with math cheat sheets in them.
DeleteI don't see the blue math cheat sheets that you mention.
DeleteSorry about that. I replaced the link with the thumbnail images to every post with cheat sheets so that they would all fit on one web page.
DeleteThat is a lot of clicking. Wow! You sure have a lot of stuff!! Super Job!
ReplyDeleteThank you Marilyn! I hope you have a great year!
DeleteI'd like a copy of the integer operations cheat sheet, but can't figure out how to download it. Help!
ReplyDeleteIt's listed on Teachers pay Teachers as "Integers Graphic Organizer", but there are a lot of them so I am happy to email it to you. My email is shana@scaffoldedmath.com. And I apologize for just getting back to you now... Blogger's comment notifaction emails have been broken (just learned that today!)
DeleteWould love to see a graphing a linear and/or proportional relationship cheat sheet.
ReplyDeleteThank you Michelle! I hope to create one by mid September. It will be linked here.

DeleteHey. Thank you so much. I should have looked harder. So sorry for all the hassle. Thank you again:)
DeleteNo apology needed:) I hope you are having a great year.
DeleteDo you have any Quick Checks or Cheat Sheets on transformations of quadratics? I really liked how your Exponential Function Quick Check has it where they are comparing between the parent function and the function they are given; and your Graphing Exponential/Log Functions sheet shows them how it was transformed from the parent. Thanks for all the Freebies, they are great references/notes/exit tickets/posters for students!
ReplyDeleteHi Courtney! I do have cheat sheets for quadratics. The setup is a little different as they are older. In this post is a link to the ones we'd use in class (cheat sheet link in blue):

Love Love your word walls. I was wondering is their a wall for polynomials. It's not in Algebra 1 and I purchased? Also, is it possible to add to the slides when something is missing? thanks! You are great, if I forgot that part...
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words! As a coincidence, I am taking new photos of the Algebra 2 word wall today to make the virtual version and just photographed the polynomials section. It's just for sketching polynomials, so may not be what you need. But please email if there is something you had in mind.
DeleteThis is a really awesome resource. Thank you SO much!
ReplyDeleteIt's really my pleasure. If you need a topic covered, I'd love to help. I have very much enjoyed making these math reference sheets and videos.
