Looking for an exciting way to practice one-step equations with your students?
Have your students play the role of an FBI employee trying to crack a secret message from one of their agents. You'll play a video to set the stage, and then your students will solve 18 one step equations using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Solutions are positive whole numbers or decimals only. Each solution unlocks part of the message. Play the answer reveal video at the end to finish class in an exciting way.
It's print-and-go and the included videos make it effortless — great for end of unit review, independent practice, group work, or even an emergency sub plan!
If you like this freebie, please leave a review. Thanks so much!
