"AlgeCaching" Level Algebra 1
Students answer Algebra 1 level questions in the hope of finding 10 hidden internet boxes. Have your students search for the boxes together as a class activity (especially during review), or assign the problems as extra credit or independent study. A certificate is available at the end of the journey indicating that all 10 boxes have been found. A worksheet for recording answers is available.
