A fun 10 card treasure hunts for a function machines lesson. Skills covered are: finding the operations of a function machine when given the input and the output. Student record card and solutions included. Use as a starter for a lesson on solving equations or as AFL/ a plenary for a lesson on function machines.
Difficulties include:
★ Red (Hard) Finding the operations of a function machine with 1/2 operations (No clues)
★ The same treasure hunt by with some of the operations already given (only the signs, no numbers)
Students need to start on any random card and note down the letter on their recording card (first page). They answer the question on that card then find another card that has the answer on (they then note down that letter and so on).
Suggestions for use:
★Print them off on A4 and scatter them around the room (students love getting out of their seats!)
★Print the cards off 4 to a page and give them to students individually to do on their desk
