Activity or Strategy Description:
Students work in partners and choose one egg at a time. They open the egg, solve the question on the answer document and return it to the egg. Return the egg to the basket and choose a new egg. Continue until time runs out or all eggs are solved.
Goal: Anytime you can get the students to only look at 1 question at a time, the task seems less daunting and they are able to focus. Also proves a quick check to check the color and answer document.
