Pass The Probem Equations
Pass The Probem Equations
Teacher Preparation:
1. Put students in groups of 4
2. Give each group one of each of the pages of equations
Student Directions:
1. Within your group, each student takes one of the Round Table Equations
pages
2. Perform only the FIRST STEP of the first equation on your paper.
3. Pass your paper to the left. Complete the NEXT STEP of the first problem on
the page you were passed.
4. When a solution is given, the next person will substitute that value into the
original equation to check it. If the solution is not correct, pass that problem
around until the error is found.
5. Continue the process with the rest of the problems on the pages.
