Description

Solve and verify one and two step equations games

Students will need to think carefully about the cards they decide to keep, since they are not only selecting the numbers which will work to yield a positive answer for their result, they will also be selecting the appropriate symbol cards to give their equation meaning.

This game provides an excellent way to model simple equations. It's perfect as an introduction to equation solving for a 6th or 7th grade class.

Common Core Mathematical Standard

6.EE Reason about and solve one-variable equations and inequalities.

7. Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form x + p = q and px = q for cases in which p, q and x are all nonnegative rational numbers.

*******************************************************************

This math game is also included in my BEST SELLING bundle 42 Middle School Math Games, I encourage you to also add it to your teaching tool kit!!! (These 42 math games are specifically designed for students in the 5th-8th grade!!! )

  • "This is a great resource. I was able to find games that supported both my 7th and 8th grade math classes!" -- Emily Barnett
  • "This was a great resource to use with my students in small groups. They love the games and do not realize we are practicing math skills." -- Andrea Z.
  • "As the sole teacher for middle school math (during one class period!) this resource was a great way for kids to practice skills and remain engaged with minimal teacher effort." -- Melissa Endicott
  • "How did I every teach without these! Thanks for creating games that make my students smile when they practice their math skills." -- DONDRA P.
  • "Really fantastic! While it is true that some of the games required the use of a chalkboard, my students were able to use individual dry erase boards. I have not yet used every game, but the games I did use encouraged my students and strengthened their skills. Thank you!" -- Laurie R.
  • "I use these quite often. I took file folders and taped the directions to the front. I put copies of any score sheets or playing boards in each folder. When I introduce a new concept, I go to my folders and look for a game that matches. Games are easy to use and my fifth graders enjoy playing. Thank you!" -- Daydreaming In Class
  • "What an exciting resource!! I wasn't sure about it, but it looked promising. And boy was it EVER!! Love this resource." -- Anna Gray
  • "The variety of the games is was drew me to making the purchase.I have taught 6-8 math and was able to find games that I could use in any of the levels." -- Ashley Washingto
  • "Very worthwhile material that supplemented my other resources for Math activities that kept students with a range of abilities fully engaged." -- Russel M.
  • "This was easy to use, fun, and my students walked away from it feeling more confident in their understanding." -- Katie L.

Students really got into this game and the prep was very easy. I did end up printing off more of the x's and ='s to make the game move a little better, but with that adjustment, it was awesome!
