Description
7.12 The student will solve two-step linear equations in one variable, including practical problems that require the solution of a two-step linear equation in one variable.
A fun interactive math game that gets students involved and excited in class. There are many different ways to play and use this activity. I personally create teams and have students solve each problem on small personal white boards for quick assessment. After all students have answered the question I check their work for understanding. Teams that have all students with a correct answer earn a point for their team and then each team gets a chance to have one member of the group come up and shoot a free throw at a small Nerf Basketball Hoop. I reward teams that make the basket with another point. At the end of class I reward the winning team. You can also reward teams for behavior as well, such as being on task and quietly working.
