Unlocking the Mystery of One‑Step Inequalities ( Grades 6-7th)

Do your students feel lost when they encounter inequality problems? This interactive resource from Wordwall brings clarity with an engaging “match‑up” activity—no dull worksheets here! Designed for sixth graders, it covers all four operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Students simply pair each inequality expression with its correct solution, reinforcing their understanding in a hands-on, visual way.

The game is hosted on Wordwall and focuses on practicing integer addition in a multiple-choice format. It’s great for:

    •    Independent practice

    •    Math warm-ups

    •    Review before a test

    •    Remote learning engagement

Why This Resource Stands Out:

    •    Interactive & Fun – Matching exercises transform routine practice into an easy, game-like challenge.

    •    Comprehensive Coverage – Exercises span all basic operations, including tricky cases with negatives.

    •    Teacher-Friendly – Easily printable and embeddable, with simple customization through Wordwall’s intuitive platform.

How to Make It Work in Class:

    1.    Warm-Up: Kick off with a quick review of inequality concepts and vocabulary.

    2.    Engage & Practice: Students tackle the match‑up activity individually or in small groups.

    3.    Reflect & Discuss: Encourage learners to verbalize their reasoning—Why does this inequality match with that solution?

    4.    Extend Learning: Ask students to create their own one‑step inequality problems and match answers, fostering deeper understanding.
