A Tarsia activity on simple equations. These type of activities can be used to consolidate understanding of a given topic, and foster positive group work and co-operative learning. For more ideas on how to use these types of activities (including twists!) and to download the latest version of the wonderful free software to open this resource (and create your own), just click on the web-link. If you have any comments, or spot any (non deliberate!) mistakes, please share them below. Many thanks to all the teachers who have helped me assemble these Tarsias over the years.

This is an excellent tarsia on solving simple equations, most of the questions are straight forward two step equations but there are four questions with unknowns on both sides. One of the spaces is blank which could be for students to add in their own question when completed. This would make an excellent activity at any stage of the lesson, although is probably best as a main activity. You could use it as a starter in a lesson on solving equations with unknowns on both sides, just to see how the students try to handle that. Thank you for sharing.
