First, we started with a two step refresher foldable. The kids solved two step equations on the inside and explained in their own words how they arrived at their answer.
Next, I found an awesome foldable online on teachers pay teachers. I think it is by far the best step by step foldable I have seen yet.
Then, we worked out a few problems using the foldable. This led to the discussion of when the coefficient in front of the variable is the same.
Finally, we concluded with their homework, which originally would have been a classroom assignment. Four no solution, four all real number equations, and four with a solution. They had to solve each to determine which pocket to place the slips into.
