Teachers often have too little time to prepare differentiated lessons to meet the needs of all students. Differentiating Instruction in Algebra 1 provides ready-to-use resources for Algebra 1 students. The book is divided into four units: introduction to functions and relationships; systems of linear equations; exponent rules and exponential functions; and quadratic functions. Each unit includes big ideas, essential questions, the Common Core State Standards addressed within that section, pretests, learning targets, varied activities, and answer keys. The activities offer choices to students or three levels of practice based on student skill level. Differentiating Instruction in Algebra 1 is just the resource math teachers need to provide exciting and challenging algebra activities for all students!
