THE SLOPE RACE

functions · finding slope from two points

To find the slope from 2 points [8.F.B.4].

THE SLOPE RACE is a Grade 8 puzzle game for finding slope from two points. Each player receives 32 squares that form eight four-piece puzzles, with coordinate pairs on one edge and slope values on another. Students calculate slope and match pieces whose values belong together, racing to complete the puzzle set accurately.

Use it for partner or small-group review when students are applying the slope formula repeatedly. The puzzle structure gives immediate feedback because an incorrect slope prevents the pieces from matching properly.
