Balance Problems
by Isaac NewtonStudents are given a worksheet to build skills that will help with solving equations and systems of equations. This sheet involves no numbers, just symbols, so that students are not distracted by the nomenclature of algebraic expressions, and can focus on building equation solving intuition. The columns of problems get increasingly more challenging as they go on. It is suggested that the students work on the more difficult problems in pairs or small groups.
Create and Compute
by Isaac NewtonStudents use a set of numbers to create problems that meet a set of criteria. For example,in the first activity, students must use three of the four digits 2,3, 5, and 8 to create and solve a problem that finds a product between 150 and 200.
SportsLaces lp

What is My Pattern
by Isaac NewtonStudents are put into groups and each group is given one card from the sheet attached. Each card contains a different clue to the number pattern the students are investigating. Groups are allowed to read their cards out loud, but they may not show their cards to any other group. By talking to all of the other groups, each student will be able to determine the seventh number in the pattern.
