Description
Do you need a fun way for students to practice the midpoint and distance formula with minimal prep? The Midpoint and Distance Formula Scavenger Hunt Game gets students up and moving around while practicing math. In this game, students use the answer to one problem to find another problem hanging around the classroom. Students will complete a total of 14 problems to create a list of explorers. This product is self-checking and allows a teacher to work one-on-one with students while the rest of the class is engaged in the scavenger hunt. My students love seeing scavenger hunts on the agenda. This product comes with the student worksheet, scavenger hunt problems, instructions, and teacher’s key. You can find a free video showing how I introduce a scavenger hunt to my students. Feel free to use this video in your classroom or use it to prepare your lesson.
The problems require students to:
• find the midpoint given the endpoints of a segment
• find the endpoint given the midpoint and other endpoint of a segment
• find the length of a segment given two endpoints
This product is also included in the Algebra 1 Scavenger Hunt Bundle and Geometry Scavenger Hunt Bundle.

This scavenger hunt was an effective way to get my students moving around the room while practicing the midpoint and distance formulas. The problems provided a good balance of difficulty, prompting solid peer collaboration. It kept the class focused and allowed me to easily spot and correct common graphing and algebraic mistakes in real time.
Great activity. My students really liked it. Would use again.
This was a great resource for my students!
It was nice to get them up and walking around.
Thanks!
Great resource!
Great resource!
This truly helped students practice using this formula. Great product.
