What educators are saying

I always love activities like these that make practice more fun. My students were definitely engaged!
I used this with advanced 7th grade students. They enjoyed solving the mystery while they practiced writing slope-intercept form equations. I like that the resource can be low prep or give the chance for students to move around the room with a bit more prep time.

Description

Need a fresh activity for slope-intercept or point-slope forms? In this CUSTOMIZABLE activity, students write equations in slope-intercept or point-slope form when given a point & slope or 2 points. You'll love the quick and easy set-up; your students will love solving the case of The Stolen Jewelry.

The Scavenger Hunt and the Individual Activity include answers written in both slope-intercept form as well as point-slope form.

This resource also includes a SIMPLIFIED version which only uses the SLOPE FORMULA and SLOPE-INTERCEPT FORM. This will allow you to use the activity with classes that do not use the point-slope form or for easy differentiation.

This item is customizable using Adobe Acrobat Reader! Please note that with this update, the file may not function correctly in all PDF Readers. Please use Acrobat Reader to ensure best functionality.

You are able to customize the characters, the items, the locations, and the title of the mystery.

Please note you are NOT able to change the actual problems in the activity.

This kit offers three ways to use this activity.

Use as a Scavenger Hunt: The download includes two sets of 23 full-color cards and two sets of 23 black and white cards for you to print and hang around your room for a class activity. As students solve the equations, they look around the room for their answer to see what clue they should eliminate. You can print the answer cards all in one form or print a few of each form for an extra challenge.

Use as an Individual Activity: The download also includes THREE versions that have all of the necessary clue information so students can complete this activity outside of the classroom. This is perfect for students who were absent during the class activity. The three versions include one version with the answers in slope-intercept form, a second version with the answers in point-slope form, and a third version which will only use the slope formula and the slope-intercept form..

Use as a Digital Activity: The download includes a link to a drag-and-drop activity in Google Sheets. Please note that the digital activity is only available in slope-intercept form and in the SIMPLIFIED slope-intercept form.

In all versions, the activity contains 20 equations.

Each answer is associated with either a person, a piece of jewelry or a location where the jewelry was stored. When a student gets the answer, that option is eliminated from the mystery. When they are finished, students will know whose jewelry was stolen, what jewelry it was and where it was stolen from!

While this can be used as a stand-alone activity, it is also a continuation of earlier mysteries. The mystery began with Slope Mystery Activity and then continued with Graphing Slope-Intercept Form Mystery Activity.

Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from two (𝘹, 𝘺) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph. Interpret the rate of change and initial value of a linear function in terms of the situation it models, and in terms of its graph or a table of values.
Create equations in two or more variables to represent relationships between quantities; graph equations on coordinate axes with labels and scales.
