My students found a few errors while playing. Very frustrating since I now need to go back and re-do them again! Takes a lot pf prep work to put together.
I'm using the tic-tac-toe & dominoes to review solving multi-step equations with my eigth graders. This is a great, creative way to get them excited about this skill! Thank you!

My kids really enjoyed these! Connect Four and Tic-Tac-Toe were favorites. For others who might be using them, one thing I changed was printing the answers on the game or cards. I left them off and instead it was the partner's job to check by substituting the answer back in to the original equation (since this is a skill I was also trying to build). I was afraid without the answers there would be disputes but it worked out really well. Thanks so much for the word doc too!

Hello I just purchase this product today and I wanted to change the questions on the checker board game....Can you advise me as to how to go about inserting my own equations on the game??? Thank you
Thanks so much for your purchase. The equations on the checkers game are not editable. You could, however, insert a black or red rectangle (insert shape) over the current equation, then insert a new equation (insert object, or insert equation) over the top of that.
