Description

Integers Practice and Review Math Mystery Activity - 7th Grade Edition. Your students will be required to use their knowledge and skills in this mystery to find a cure to help Ivan, the Invisible Illusionist, become visible again!

Easy prep! Just Print & Solve! Or go paperless with the new Google Slides option provided within your download.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Optional video hook included for introducing the case! (Check it out in the preview section)

BONUS: Ending video added to wrap up the case!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Preparation

- No Prep required! Print the student pages, staple or place

them in a folder, and your students are set to go.

- Make copies of the Google Slides worksheets to assign digitally.

- Have the video hook ready for viewing at the start of the

lesson on an IWB, iPad, or computer monitor screen.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Math Skills Required to Unlock Clues

  • Clue 1: Adding Integers
  • Clue 2: Subtracting Integers
  • Clue 3: Multiplying Integers
  • Clue 4: Dividing Integers
  • Clue 5: Mixed Operations Integers

Students must use critical thinking skills to figure out what the clue is telling them to eliminate from the list of possibilities.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Multiple Uses

- Suitable for independent, pairs, or group work.

- Use as part of your math centers, add to your sub tubs, make it part of your early finisher tasks, give for homework, or make it part of your classroom practice/review sessions.

I recommend pacing this activity by giving students one clue at a time. Once the whole class has completed a clue, then move on to the next clue, either within the same lesson or the next math session. New math content presented? Make a lesson out of it by modeling the math before diving into the clue. I like to say, "we must learn something new before attempting the next clue."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How long will this activity take?

Time to complete will vary anywhere between 30mins - 2 hours or more! It mainly depends on how familiar your students are with the math mystery format and how difficult they find math skills covered in the particular mystery. Please check the math skills outlined in the clues above to help determine suitability for your class.
