Description
Do you need a fun way for students to practice adding, subtracting, and multiplying polynomials with minimal prep? The Operations with Polynomials 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 16 problems to create a list of mathematicians. You can even extend this activity by having students research one of the mathematicians in the scavenger hunt. 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 included in this scavenger hunt require students to:
•Add polynomials
•Subtract polynomials
•Multiply a monomial and a trinomial
•Multiply two binomials
•Square a binomial
•Multiply a binomial and a trinomial
•Multiply two trinomials
This product is also included in the Algebra 1 Scavenger Hunt Bundle.

I used this in my grade 9 math class (Alberta) so some of these questions were a little too challenging for their curriculum. That being said, it was a lot of fun and the students really enjoyed it! I just helped them with the too challenging of questions.
A great activity that I used for remediation and enrichment!
Great resource. User friendly and the kids enjoyed the material.
LOVED this! My students tend to be on the lazier side and try to sit at their desks and simply look around to find their next problem, never getting up or moving about to do these type of scavenger hunt activities. The design of these "posters" was absolutely perfect and made students get up and move!! I also loved all the mathematicians on the flaps, which led to some fun conversations as well!
This was a fun activity for my students and I enjoyed the connection to math history
I used this resource with my 8th grade honors math class. It was engaging and challenging. It was awesome to see the students out of their seats and helping each other. Perfect for review before a quiz!
Engaging way to practice operations with polynoials! I also like that students were up and moving around.

Understand that polynomials form a system analogous to the integers, namely, they are closed under the operations of addition, subtraction, and multiplication; add, subtract, and multiply polynomials.
