Students group together with classmates of the same characteristic to solve a problem together, and then... SCATTER! All the groups split up and regroup based on the next characteristic. Adaptable to any content, although originally created to practice Comparing and Ordering Numbers. Included: 25 SCATTER! Cards & 25
