In this activity, students cut the nine squares, and then match the sides. All sides must be equal. For example 2 + 4 = 6 x 1, both sides equal 6. When making the squares, I completed the squares first. After I was done with the problems in the squares, I wrote the letters A - I in the middle of the squares. When the students start the activity, I have them set them up in alphabetical order.

The students loved the Mission Impossible theme! I had to play it over twice while they were working. I hope you can use this activity in your classroom and more importantly, I hope your students enjoy the activity as much as mine!

This is my first lesson submission! I hope you like it!
