Cover-up |
 Copy
onto cards the equations written below, one per card. Shuffle the cards and place
them face down in a pile. Draw a 3 × 3 grid on each of four sheets of paper.
Make four different game boards by writing the following numbers in different
squares of each grid: 10, 2, -1, 4, 8, 6, -2, 12, 7.
| Equations
to put on cards: |
 |
-5x = 30 |
 |
9k = 81 |
3x = 12 |
 |
2e = -2 |
 |
5a = 20 |
8h = 8 |
3q = 27 |
6h = -12 |
 |
 |
 |
5t = 35 |
-4b = 24 |
4p = 8 |
6h = 48 |

Each
group member takes a card and solves the equation shown. Place a counter on the
solution. Continue in this way until one group member completely covers the squares
on his or her game board with counters. The other group members should verify
the winner's solutions.
