Hands on introduction to variables:

Students are more invested when they can move, even a little bit. This activity has students organizing cards into two categories: variable and no variable. They will recognize that letters are used for terms in expressions that are unknown.

Teachers can use these cards in a variety of ways. I have put Velcro on the back of the card and made posters with Velcro labelled "variable" and "no variable". Students in teams raced to place their cards on the correct poster. A super fun activity to introduce variables.

What's included:

• Instructions.
• Category title cards.
• 14 expression cards.

Why is this product useful:

• Can be used in a variety of ways.
• Easy prep for the teacher.
• Great introduction to recognition of variables.

Students will love this Jeopardy-like game to review all Common Core Ratios and Proportional Relationship standards. Questions focus on rates and unit rates, identifying and representing proportional relationships, solving problems with proportions, finding and using percent, percent change (increase, decrease, error), and key vocabulary words. Points range from 100 - 500, which reflect the increase in difficulty throughout each category.

**FULLY EDITABLE** While the game is complete, it is also editable in PowerPoint, making it easy to add questions or change the level of difficulty based on your students' needs.

Rates and Unit Rates: students are asked to find unit rates/the constant of proportionality given graphs, tables, and real-lilfe situations

Identify and Represent Proportional Relationships: in this category students use graphs, tables and real-life situations to determine whether or not something is proportional

Solve Problems with Proportions: these questions focus on using what students know about rates, unit rates, the constant of proportionality, and proportional relationships to answer real-world situations

Find and Use Percent: here students find percent scores on tests, use sales tax and discounts to calculate final prices and answer real-life problems

Percent Change: this section asks students to find percent change (increase and decrease), percent error, and use these percent to find new values

Vocabulary: this sections asks about proportionality, complex fractions, and key components to expressing ratios as graphs and equations

LESSON: ONE_STEP EQUATIONS PUZZLE GAME

GRADE LEVEL: MIDDLE SCHOOL

TIME FRAME: 1 HOUR

OBJECTIVE:

o The learner will work to solve one-step equations with rational numbers.

o The learner will solve equations that include decimals fractions, to solve for x.

MATERIALS:

o Scissors

o Zip lock bags

o Construction paper and glue

o Optional: lamination for storage and reuse. If you choose this, construction paper and glue will not be needed, as they will not glue the pieces to construction paper.

o Print out of puzzle for the instructor as an answer sheet.

PREPARATION:

Students will be working in pairs to complete the equations puzzle, which requires students to solve one-step equations with rational number. Place students in teams of two. Duplicate enough copies for each team to have one puzzle. Cut out the puzzle pieces and place them into a Ziplock bag.

Optional: You may laminate the puzzle pieces for reuse if you choose to keep the pieces to use one year to the next. However, you will not need construction paper and glue if lamination is chosen.

INTRODUCTION: (20 minutes)

Ask students what constitutes an equation.

Answer: An equation says that two things are equal, and may contain two or more

variables.

Ask students what constitute a rational number.

Answer: A number that you can put into fraction such a decimal, fraction, percent or

whole number.

Review how to work through a one-step equation using the following equations:

• 5x=80 Answer (16)

• x+-20=17 Answer: (37)

• x-(-10)=-10 Answer: (-20)

• x-4 1/3=2 2/3 Answer: (7)

HELPFUL VIDEO: (10 minutes)

Helpful Youtube video links included.

TEAM ACTIVITY: (30 minutes)

Provide each team with a puzzle in a Ziplock bag. Provide students 15-30 minutes to solve the equations and place the puzzle together. You may even encourage a competition to see which groups can complete the puzzle first providing prizes to first place, second place, and third place. Once they have the puzzle completed, have them glue it to a piece of construction paper if you have not chosen to laminate the game pieces for reuse.

CLOSURE / EVALUATION: (20 minutes)

Using an overhead projector or smart board projector that will display the puzzle pieces, work with the class to solve the puzzle. Students will check their answers.

ENRICHMENT ACTIVITY/HOMEWORK

Give students a blank chart and allow them to create a puzzle for that they can give to another group/student to complete. Make sure the student keeps a copy of the puzzle to act as the answer sheet.

TEACHER’S ANSWER SHEET

Each puzzle has the answers in itself before being cut into puzzle pieces. The equations on the outer edges of the puzzle will not have answers to match. This makes the puzzle more challenging

Connect is a math-based card game that engages students. They can practice any math skill and have fun in this fast-paced environment. Students use flashcard-like playing cards and math symbols to match each other's cards. When there is a match, both players shout out the answer to the shown equation, and the fastest player wins!

The catch is, there could be multiple matches in a round when the top cards are taken off, creating a chain reaction of fun!

The best part is, you can edit the cards using Google Slides to fit any of your needs! This game can be used for ANY skill. Currently, the game is set up for solving trinomials when a = 1, but you can replace equations as you see fit. It's easy change the cards to addition, fractions, percent, solving equations, factoring, etc.

Even though the game is designed for math, you could switch the game from math equations to sight words, rhyming words, description words, science words, important dates in history, etc. The cards are editable!

Contents:

* 90 cards (6 sheets)

-80 EDITABLE equation cards

-10 Connect cards

-6 blank cards

* Instruction Manual with complete gameplay description

Helpful hint: Printing out the sheets on cardstock or laminating the cards will help make them last longer.
