Algebra 1 Math Warm-Ups
180 days of spiral review, four problems a day, across four quarters: Expressions & Equations, Functions & Graphing, Polynomials & Quadratics, Exponentials & Statistics. 30 standards, every one on the week-by-week list below.
A full year, a semester or one quarter
Every option has the same four-part day, the same layouts and the same answer-reveal decks.

The same four roles, every day
- 1
Today’s Skill
The standard you are teaching now.
- 2
Recent Review
A standard taught in the last few weeks.
- 3
Spiral Review
An earlier or prerequisite skill, so nothing fades.
- 4
Word Problem
The skill applied in context.

Algebra 1 warm-up questions
How long does a warm-up take?
Five to eight minutes. Project the day’s slide while you take attendance, give students time to work the four problems, then advance to the answer-reveal slide for a quick check.
Do they work in Google Slides?
Yes. Every week has a Google Slides copy link, and every quarter has a whole-quarter link, so you can make your own copy in Drive. The same decks come as PowerPoint and PDF.
Can I buy one quarter at a time?
Yes. Each quarter is its own listing, the two semesters are bundles of two quarters, and the full year holds all four. Every option has the same four-part day and the same layouts.
What do the four problems cover?
The same four roles every day: the standard you are teaching now, a recently taught standard, an earlier or prerequisite skill, and a word problem. The weekly topics and standards for every quarter are listed on each grade’s page.
