"Linear Inequalities With Two Variables Problem Pass Activity - Algebra 1 - Digital - Distance Learning"

DIGITAL AND PRINT: Twelve rounds provide practice or review graphing linear inequalities with two variables AND writing linear inequalities with two variables from graphs.

Do your students struggle? Are you looking for more extensive practice on a single skill?

If so, check out my Algebra 1: “Slow It Down” Series.

I isolated three types of problems in THIS activity and created three new, separate Algebra 1 “Slow It Down” activities, each focused on only ONE type of problem. You can find these in the “Graph Linear Inequalities in Two Variables "Slow It Down” Relay Activity Bundle or individually in my store:

• Slow It Down – Graph Linear Inequalities in Two-Variables: Slope-Intercept Form ONLY Relay Activity

• Slow It Down – Graph Linear Inequalities in Two-Variables: Standard Form ONLY Relay Activity

• Slow It Down – Write Linear Inequalities in Two Variables From Graphs Relay Activity

This activity can be used as a formative assessment or review following slower practice with some or all of the activities listed above.

Note: Please see “Graph Linear Inequalities in Two Variables Relay Activity” for another popular activity that includes a variety of practice graphing linear inequalities and writing linear inequalities from graphs.

*******

Students work with a partner while seated at their desks. They should write in their own notebook or on the blank Answer Sheet (included).

At the same time the first pair of students is working on Problem 1, the second pair works on Problem 2, the third pair works on Problem 3, etc. At the teacher’s signal, all students pass their problem in a specific direction. The students who started with Problem 2 should now pass it to the students who started with Problem 1, the students who started with Problem 3 pass it to the students who started with Problem 2, etc. The first pair of students starting with Problem 1 should deliver their finished problem to the last pair of students, or the teacher may prefer to deliver these each time. Students now flip over their new page to find the ANSWER to the problem they just finished.

Students continue to work problems in order, pass problems and check their answers on the back of the next problem page until they have completed all problems included in the activity.

It is important for the teacher to tell the entire class when to pass their first problem and to tell everyone where to look for the first answer on the back of their NEXT problem. After this first pass together, I’ve allowed students to work and pass problems at their own pace. Teachers may prefer to set a timer so all students pass their current problem to the next pair of students simultaneously.

This activity works well in the middle of a lesson while students are actively practicing a new skill or can be used as a review.

The answer key is built into the activity so students check for accuracy themselves.

***DIGITAL COMPATIBLE: Through Easel Activities, this product contains an INTERACTIVE PDF. Instructions for online use are already included. You will be able to further annotate and customize it for your digital learning needs. Underlying content is not editable. Your students will complete the digital PDF and submit it to you for review via Google Classroom or other LMS.

CCSS: Represent and solve equations and inequalities graphically.

HSA.REI.D.12 Graph the solutions to a linear inequality in two variables as a half-plane (excluding the boundary in the case of a strict inequality), and graph the solution set to a system of linear inequalities in two variables as the intersection of the corresponding half-planes.

CCSS: Construct and compare linear, quadratic, and exponential models and solve problems.

HSF.LE.A.2 Construct linear and exponential functions, including arithmetic and geometric sequences, given a graph, a description of a relationship, or two input-output pairs (include reading these from a table).

TEKS: Linear functions, equations, and inequalities

A1.3.D Linear functions, equations, and inequalities. The student applies the mathematical process standards when using graphs of linear functions, key features, and related transformations to represent in multiple ways and solve, with and without technology, equations, inequalities, and systems of equations. The student is expected to: graph the solution setof linear inequalities in two variables on the coordinate plane.

VA SOL: Equations and Inequalities

EI.A.5.b The student will represent the solution of linear inequalities in two variables graphically.

Teacher Setup:

Print single-sided copies and slide pages into plastic page protectors to keep problems and answers together. Put Problem 1 and ANSWER Problem 12 back-to-back in the same plastic page protector; put Problem 2 and ANSWER Problem 1 back-to-back in another plastic page protector, Problem 3 and ANSWER Problem 2 together, etc. Prepare 2 or more complete sets of the activity to have enough pages for each pair of students in the class. Keep complete sets in order.

It is very important to hand out problems in numerical order so the page with the answer on the back follows its problem number. As you hand out problems in order, problem side up, tell each pair of students the direction they should pass their problem when finished. This direction may vary by row if you zig-zag or “snake” up and down the rows of desks. The first pair of students starting with Problem 1 should deliver their finished problems to the last pair of students, or you may prefer to deliver these each time.

(Optional) Print enough copies of the blank Answer Sheet for each student to use as they work the problems. Another option is for students to write in their own notebooks.

Included in the package:

• Twelve “Problem Pass” pages

• Answer pages for students to self-check

• Blank answer sheet for students (optional)

• Answer Key for Teacher
