Equation Maze
equations · solving multi-step linear equations
To solve multi-step linear equations [8.EE.C.7b].
Equation Maze is a Grade 8 algebra activity that turns multi-step linear equations into a path-finding challenge. Each block contains an equation, and the solution tells students which connected path to follow next. A wrong solution sends them down the wrong route, so simplifying, using inverse operations, and solving for x all matter to finding the way through the maze.
Use it for partner or small-group review when students already know the mechanics of solving multi-step equations and need concentrated practice. The maze structure gives students immediate feedback when a solution does not fit an available path. Generate the lesson for Equation Maze with a free Find a Math Game account.
