Less than $5 7th Grade Word Problems Task Cards

Level Ups are a fun way to challenge your students to complete various levels of mastery on working with solving two-step equations. Aligned to the common core standards, this Level Ups activity provides 5 levels of challenge for your students to complete, starting with pre-requisite skills involving order of operations, operations with integers, and operations with fractions (rational numbers).

Students start at level zero and work their way up to level 4, giving them accurate feedback on what they have mastered, and what they still need to work on. This lesson works as a great way to review solving two-step equations after teaching the concepts, or as preparation for an upcoming assessment.

This activity includes:

• Suggested activity instructions (based on how I run this in my classroom).
• Five levels with 6-13 questions each.
• Complete answer keys for each level.
