Bramble2

Your students can practice their equation skills with these Halloween themed puzzles. Directions: Give pre-cut puzzle to students. Students piece together the puzzle as they work the equations. Glue on either black or orange construction paper for display. Two puzzles included: (pg.1) one-step equations and (pg. 2) two-step equations Both puzzles are similarly themed, making them great for differentiation.

Use this document for those students that have difficulty with setting up and solving Pythagorean Theorem equations. Page 1 is used for a missing hypotenuse and page 2 is used for a missing leg. I copy this document front-to-back and laminate it so that my students are able to use it over and over again with a dry erase marker. When copied in smaller scale, it serves as scaffolded notes in interactive notebooks.

Use this self-checking partner activity for one-step equation practice using all 4 operations. Includes: directions, partner sheet, answer key Directions: Each student in the pair receives one column of the sheet and works the problems in their column independently. After both students finish, they check their answers. (Problems on opposite sides of the sheet are different, but answers are the same.)

These organizers can serve as a great reference tool for your students as they perform basic integer operations. They are great printed poster size for display or smaller for a resource students can hold.
