My students were engaged in this resource. I had them work in partners to complete it and check their answers with me. I made it more challenging for my honors students and did not include the cut and paste. Instead, they just solved the problems.

This was great practice for students that forces them to get the correct answer. Great resource!

My 7th graders loved this activity! They were engaged and stayed on task throughout it which is the reason I purchase these types of activities and keep them out of book work constantly! Thank you!
