Interactive Digital Math Activities

This is a long post jam-packed with information on making math digital for 1 to 1 and blended learning classrooms. It has digital links to math activities in Google Slides, Forms and how to send these to students. In this post I show you how to send GOOGLE Slides and GOOGLE Forms to students, link you to updated math task cards that now have Google versions in their files, what the updated partner scavenger hunts look like on Google Slides and what solve 'n check! math tasks look like on Google Forms. I also link to my store's new GOOGLE math section and where you can find digital activities specifically for algebra.

This is a long post jam-packed with ways to practice math digitally in your classroom. It has links to digital math activities and how to send them to students who are working on their devices. I also highlight some of the digital updates I have added to their printable versions, and to some new digital math escape rooms.

Solving equations mix-match

Since around April 2020, I've updated 100+ of my math activities to now also include links to interactive digital versions. The vast majority of the digital resources in this post come in both print and digital form within the same file so that you will have easy access to both formats.

Digital Algebra

It's hard to believe we're all here, being forced into homeschooling algebra or developing algebra lessons that can be taught from home. Students are suddenly tasked with distance learning on Google Apps that may have never used before. I'm still trying to wrap my head around it all and wondering how I ever took normal life for granted. But here we are! Homeschooling our kids math (or in my case "homeschooling" since mine is in K) or creating digital algebra lessons for remote teaching on platforms like Google Classroom or Zoom that we may have never used before.

 It's been a whirlwind of digital algebra updates! Between teaching my little one fractions and keeping her busy, I was able to update all of my algebra task cards, partner scavenger hunts, and solve 'n check math tasks with digital versions for distance learning. All of the updates have been added into their existing printable resource files on tpt to create a library of digital math activities with both printable and digital versions in the same files. 

I have been updating my printable algebra resources to now also include links to digital versions, like this virtual algebra word wall. In this post, I want to link you to some of these new digital resources along with my free math cheat sheets and YouTube tutorial videos to make it easier for you to teach algebra remotely.

Graphing Log Functions Step by Step Video

In this post is a graphing logarithmic functions step by step video and a free graphing logarithm functions cheat sheet. The cheat sheet can be given to students for their notebooks or enlarged to create an anchor chart for your wall.
Log functions are kind of cool in that they force us to think backwards. Logarithms are inverses of exponentials (which I covered in this exponential functions video) so when we create our parent table we're thinking y first, then x. This can get a little confusing, so I wanted to make a video to go along with the free logs cheat sheet I posted a while ago on my blog (and that I re-linked here).
