Divide the students into pairs. Give each team 5 minutes to create as many addition equations as they can.
-
To get started, one student writes an unsolved addition equation on Post-it® Super Sticky Notes with each piece of the equation on separate note.
-
His or her teammate then writes an equation adding up to the sum. Since the equations build off of the previous one, the notes take on a crossword puzzle-like arrangement. Have your students continue writing down equations until time expires.
-
The pair of students that comes up with the most addition problems in the allotted time wins.
-
This math equation crossword can be used in subtraction, multiplication, division and fractions.
