square roots · evaluating positive and negative square roots
To evaluate the positive and negative square roots [8.EE.A.2].
SPIN TO KNOW IT is a Grade 8 square roots game that combines a game board with positive and negative square-root practice. Players move along their boards, use a spinner to determine which type of square root to evaluate, and keep their position when the answer is correct. The repeated turns give students practice evaluating square roots while keeping the task in a simple game format.
Use it for partner work or a small group when students need additional practice with positive and negative square roots. Because each turn produces a specific expression to evaluate, teachers can quickly see which values students handle confidently and where errors appear.
