Understand Algebraic Results Math Games

7 games

In this series of games, your students will learn to give examples of linear equations in one variable with one solution. The Understand Algebraic Results learning objective — based on CCSS and state standards — delivers improved student engagement and academic performance in your classroom, as demonstrated by research. This learning objective directly references 8.EE.C.7.a as written in the common core national math standards.

Scroll down for a preview of this learning objective’s games and the concepts.

Concepts Covered

A linear equation has one solution if only one value will make the equation true (the variable terms are different and the end result has a variable and a solution. A linear equation has infinite solutions if any value will make the equation true (variable terms are the same and both sides are equal). A linear equation has no solutions if no values will make the equation true (variables cancel each other out on both sides of the equation and both sides are not equal)

Algebraic Monkey Estimated Duration: 20 minutes Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, is in charge of protecting the Heavenly Peach Gardens. Use algebraic results to activate the Monster Repellers, and prevent the monsters from eating the peaches.

Equality Explorer - Variables Estimated Duration: 10 minutes Discover how to maintain equality or inequality by adding and removing integers and variables from a balance. Build an equation or inequality and observe the effects of changing the value of the variable. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Equality Explorer - Operations Estimated Duration: 10 minutes Manipulate and solve equations by applying the inverse properties of addition and multiplication. Build an equation and observe the effects of changing the value of the variable. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Equality Explorer - Game Estimated Duration: 10 minutes Solve equations by applying inverse properties of addition and multiplication to isolate the variable. Choose to solve one-step, two-step, or multi-step equations. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Equality Explorer: Two Variables Estimated Duration: 10 minutes Build equations and inequalities in two variables. Observe the effects of changing the values of the variables. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Equation Pipe Estimated Duration: 18 minutes Solve the challenging puzzles and equations to fill all the pipes and fix the Pipe Block!

Galaxy Escape Estimated Duration: 20 minutes 10 Bright Monsters have been captured in space and they need your help to cross the galaxy jumping between platforms, finding them, and releasing them by correctly answering each question. Each monster that you release and unlock will be available to play with in the next level, in the search for the next monster. In your journey, you’ll be able to find power-ups, like ‘Double points’ and ‘Slow down’, which can be activated by finding gems, and their duration can be extended by correctly answering a question. Unlock and release the 10 different monsters and a spaceship along 10 different levels, while you make the most possible points.
