📏💫 Algebra on the Move! 💫📏
Our students took an Algebra Walk ! 🏃♀️📚
Each student was given an equation like y = 2x + 1, picked an x-value, calculated their y-value, and then walked to the spot that matched their coordinate.
It was an awesome way to turn equations into real-life movement — learning, laughing, and seeing math come to life! 🙌✨
