My students loved doing this. Something about cutting answers out and gluing them to a paper makes it fun for them for some reason!
This was an awesome activity to add to my lesson. My students really enjoyed and it kept them engaged. Thanks.

Description

In the Pythagorean Theorem Solve and Snip, students will read a real-world word problem involving Pythagorean Theorem, draw a diagram, and work through the problem using Pythagorean Theorem. They will find the correct answer in the solutions bank and glue it in the answer column for the correct problem.

What is a Solve and Snip you may be asking? A Solve and Snip is an interactive set of word problems, aligned to standards, that allow students to not only practice working with word problems but also have students working to solve problems with only a given set of answers provided. This allows self-checking and instant feedback on correct and incorrect answers.

Included in the Download are:

  • Teacher Directions on How to Implement
  • 2 Pages of Pythagorean Theorem Word Problems "Solve and Snip" practice problems (set of 10)
  • 1 page of Solutions (4 per page)
  • Answer Key

Solve and Snips are extremely versatile and you can use them in a multitude of ways!

  1. Interactive work that allows students to worth through the problems and self-check based on the answers provided.
  2. Running low on copies? Make a group set of 4-6 and laminate! Use velcro on the back of the pieces and students can attach the pieces to match the problem.
  3. Provide the Solve and Snip to your students but only give them half of the answers. Better yet, give half of your students one-half of the answers and the other half a different half of the answers.
  4. Have your students work in a relay to solve the problems. Divide your class into four teams. The first team with all of their work shown will get 4 points, the second team will get 3 points, etc.
  5. and more!
