Solve and Switch is a round robin style group activity in which students practice creating, graphing, and solving systems of equations based on real life situations. Students work in teams to complete four different tasks, each student completing a different part of each task (write a system, graph the system, solve the system, check the answer). This activity works great for a full 50 minute class period, providing students with challenging work that elicits rich math discussion.
Product includes the following:
- Detailed lesson instructions for how I run this activity in my own classroom
- 4 problem solving tasks
- Complete solutions for all four tasks
