I created this rational expressions question stack activity for my Algebra 2 students. Question stacks are my favorite self-checking practice activity to create for my students. This question stack covers both simplifying rational expressions and adding and subtracting rational expressions. I have my students work through these in groups with mini dry erase boards. This …

Our textbook just didn’t have …
