Warm UpDraw a number line on your paper.
Number from 1 - 10. Answer each of the
questions below using your number line.
1. What is a possible number less than 3?
2. What is a possible number greater OR equal to 7?
3. How can you compare 3 and 8?
Objective: Students will be able to solve onestep inequalities using substitution and inverse operations.
CCSS: Reason about and solve onestep inequalities. 6.EE.5 Understand solving an equation or inequality as a process of answering a question: which values from a specified set, if any, make the equation or inequality true?

Game Time!• Each table group will get 2 sets of cards and a dice
• Place the cards face down
• When I say go, you will turn one card over from each stack
• One card is the inequality symbol and the other card is
what goes on the left side of the inequality
• Then you will roll the dice to find what goes on the right
side of the inequality
• Each person must write the inequality down, and the
person who solves the inequality 1st wins that round
Game Time!
• When your table uses all the cards
in the stack, pick up the blue sheet
at the back
• You will work in partners and will
need one blue sheet per partner
group
• Follow the directions on the sheet!
