    About this Activity

    In this activity, students are given a series of two-sided equations and are asked to determine if each two-sided equation has infinitely many solutions, one solution, or no solutions. The goal is to drag each equation card down into the correct box at the bottom of the slide. There are eleven different equation cards for the students to sort. Once all eleven cards have been dropped in one of the three categories, students are directed to click the Submit button in the lower right corner of the interaction to check their answers. Students will then see a results slide that includes an overall point total along with a percentage score. We have also provided a link to some directions that can be used to help students take a screenshot of their results so that they can be submitted through the learning management system or other tools to receive credit for the activity.

    Accessibility

    The equations and all other text in the activity have been added as plain text, so the content should be able to be read by screen-reading technology. However, drag and drop activities may be more difficult for students with visual impairments to complete. If you have a student with a visual impairment, you can either partner that student with another student, have him or her work with an assistant, or create an alternative assignment.
