Spring | Solving Linear Equations Pixel Art Activity

Spring | Solving Linear Equations Pixel Art Activity

This Google Sheets-based resource provides a unique, interactive approach to teaching linear equations. Designed to appeal to students' creative side, the activity reveals a spring-themed pixel art design as they solve each equation accurately. It aligns with key Common Core standards, making it suitable for Graders 8-10 mastering or revisiting linear equations.

• Students are required to solve 20 varied linear equations, including those involving negative numbers, boosting the complexity level.
• The concealed pixel art design serves as motivation pushing them towards accuracy throughout the task.

Aligns with Common Core Standards:

1. The activity provides real-world examples of linear equations with single solutions (8.EE.C.7a), infinitely many solutions or no solutions.
2. Learners are guided towards simplification of these intricate forms into solvable expressions like x = a and a = b through incorporation of varied coefficients inclusive of rational numbers (8.EE.C.7b).

Catering beyond traditional in-person classes, this digital resource encourages independent learning in remote environments making it fitting for online homework assignments or substitute plans too.

All students require is access via Google Drive on any internet-connected device facilitating an effortless distribution process just by sharing copies of the Google Sheets file.
