✨Unlock the Fun in Learning Solving One-Step Inequalities!✨

Engage your students with an exciting kinesthetic activity designed specifically for mastering one-step inequalities! With 10 interactive stations, this engaging learning activity will get your students moving and thinking critically.

How It Works:

• Start with a Student Sheet: Each student receives a scavenger hunt sheet to track their progress. Students may select where to begin, or you may assign them to a particular station.
• Solve and Record: At each poster, students solve the challenge problem at the bottom of the poster, record their answer on the student recording sheet, and find their next destination based on their answer.
• Explore and Discover: Once students find their answer, they are going to “sprint” (or walk calmly ☺) to the poster with their answer at the top of it.
• Collaborate and Compete: As they sprint (or walk calmly) to new stations, they can work cooperatively while reinforcing key concepts.

Why Choose Our Scavenger Hunt?

✅Promotes Active Learning: Keeps students engaged through movement and

collaboration.

✅Reinforces Key Skills: Focuses on understanding linear inequalities in a fun,
interactive way.

✅Flexible Setup: Perfect for any classroom environment—adaptable to your
