What educators are saying

Really love the pennants. I think they are great way to showcase student work while keeping it cute in junior high. These work great for after a test for the kids to work on. I let them be extra credit and the kids really enjoy them.
My students enjoyed the seasonal application of this activity with their learning. Plus, the activity helped decorate my room for Halloween!

Description

Students solve 1-step and 2-step equations in this spooky math activity that doubles as a fun display of student work. Equations have variables on the left or the right and include negative numbers.

Included are 40 ghost pennants, optional student answer sheets and answer keys. 20 of the pennants cover 1-step equations and 20 cover 2-step equations.

Once a pennant is complete, it can be hung along a string in your classroom to show the world that, "Hey, we know how to solve equations!" Students can also choose to color their ghosts, which creates a festive classroom display.

Each group of students can be given a set of pennants, scissors and either glue, tape or a stapler. Students can be in charge of cutting out the pennants. Groups can compete to see which group can complete the most pennants or your entire class can add pennants to one string as they complete each one. You may also choose to have your students color their pennants to add to your classroom dรฉcor.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Understand solving an equation or inequality as a process of answering a question: which values from a specified set, if any, make the equation or inequality true? Use substitution to determine whether a given number in a specified set makes an equation or inequality true.
Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form ๐˜น + ๐˜ฑ = ๐˜ฒ and ๐˜ฑ๐˜น = ๐˜ฒ for cases in which ๐˜ฑ, ๐˜ฒ and ๐˜น are all nonnegative rational numbers.
Solve multi-step real-life and mathematical problems posed with positive and negative rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions, and decimals), using tools strategically. Apply properties of operations to calculate with numbers in any form; convert between forms as appropriate; and assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies. For example: If a woman making $25 an hour gets a 10% raise, she will make an additional 1/10 of her salary an hour, or $2.50, for a new salary of $27.50. If you want to place a towel bar 9 3/4 inches long in the center of a door that is 27 1/2 inches wide, you will need to place the bar about 9 inches from each edge; this estimate can be used as a check on the exact computation.
Use variables to represent quantities in a real-world or mathematical problem, and construct simple equations and inequalities to solve problems by reasoning about the quantities.
Solve linear equations in one variable.
