Level Ups are a fun way to challenge your students to complete various levels of mastery on working with solving single variable equations. Aligned to the common core standards, Level Ups provide 5 levels of challenge for your students to complete, starting with pre-requisite one-step equation and algebraic expression skills all the way up to writing and solving equations with variables on both side of the equal sign.

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 equation solving 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 - 12 questions each.
• Complete answer keys for each level.
