Instructional Ideas

• Encourage pupils to use their notes and scratch paper to solve problems 
• Direct peers to work together to answer equations then discuss the last question
• Review the interactive as a class—go through each problem, invite volunteers to share their thinking, and answer questions they may have 

Classroom Considerations

• The discussion question directs participants to another webpage
• Learners should be familiar with percent equations
• Create a free CK-12 account to access the interactive 

Pros

• An engaging theme hooks participants 
• Provides correct answers after responses are chosen 
• Offers hints and information for participants to use when needed 

Cons

• The tool makes an interesting visual aid but math work must be completed by equations out on paper
