Equation Tic Tac Toe
With your partner, decide who goes first and who will be X’s and who’s O’s. To play:
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
6)
7)
One player chooses a box to begin.
Both players solve the equation on their own on a separate sheet of paper.
If the player who chose the equation gets the right answer, then he/she writes
his/her mark (X or O) in the box.
If the player who chose the equation gets the wrong answer, then the other player
gets to win the box if he/she has the correct answer.
If neither player gets the correct answer, then both players re-solve the equation
to determine who wins the box (by the same procedure described above).
After a box is won, the other player chooses the next equation to solve.
Whichever player gets tic-tac-toe vertically, horizontally, or diagonally wins!!
