This is an excellent tarsia activity on solving equations, students must match up the equation to the solution. The questions range in difficulty from one step equations to equations with unknowns on both sides and equations including fractions. The only negative is the answers are just numbers rather than written correctly as say x = 3, this could be easily changed if you wanted. This would make an excellent activity at any stage of the lesson and would allow you to listen to student discussion which can be so valuable. This can be easily adapted to include some extension questions if you wanted. Thank you for sharing.
