Description
Use this engaging activity for students to walk around the classroom with partners to solve multistep equations with parnters or groups of 3. Print each of the slides (10 in total) on cardstock paper. Post around the classroom. Students will walk around using their papers and solve the problems. These would be great “Building Thinking Classrooms” problems too.
My suggestion is to begin class with some review warmups. Explain the lesson, then have kids walk around to solve each. There are 10 problems in total. While kids are walking around and solving, see where they get stuck and give them some helpful hints. Also, stamp the work that they get right to help you with the grading process (speeds things up).
Play some music in the background so students can enjoy their time walking around and solving while collaborating. It will make the lesson even more engaging.
Tell students they do not have to solve in order so you don’t have an entire class of kids all bunched up to do 1 problem. They can solve in any order they would like.
