Hi, I'm Allison from Math Beach and I want to show you one of the most practical features of the Math Beach Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra 2 curriculum: the dual practice worksheet system that eliminates those last-minute scrambles for extra materials.
This isn't just about having worksheets. It's about having the right worksheets ready when you need them, so you can handle any classroom situation without extra prep work.
Why Two Practice Worksheets Matter
If you've ever needed an extra worksheet on the spot - for makeup work, different class periods, or when students need more practice - you know that sinking feeling of scrambling to create something during your prep period. It's one of those sneaky to-do items that pops up when you're not planning for it.
That's why every Math Beach lesson includes Practice A and Practice B - same skills, different problems, both ready to print.
This means you can:
Assign makeup work even if graded work has been returned
Access ready-to-print resources for unscheduled tutorial sessions
Provide extra practice without creating new materials
Practice A vs Practice B: See the Difference
What Both Worksheets Include:
Same skills and standards alignment
Similar difficulty level and problem types
Clear formatting that is supported by guided notes
In-context answer keys for easy grading
Real Practice Worksheet Example
In the video, I walk through an Algebra 2 lesson to show you exactly how this works. You'll see how Practice A and Practice B assess the same skills with different problems, and how both worksheets connect seamlessly to the guided notes examples.
The problems align closely with what students learned in the lesson, so they have clear references for independent work at home.
Complete Lesson System Integration
The dual worksheet approach works as part of the complete lesson system:
Guided notes with step-by-step examples

Student versions ready to print for your class

Why I Built It This Way
Needing extra forms of assignments is one of those sneaky to-do list items that ends up on your plate when you aren't planning for it. Having a second version of each practice worksheet can be a huge time saver by just taking that off your plate - all you have to do is print Practice B and you're ready to go.
