At Pacific Intermediate, our 6th-grade math students are actively engaging with equations through hands-on learning experiences. They participated in a scavenger hunt and equations activities that not only reinforced their understanding but also got them moving around the room and made math enjoyable. This approach fosters critical thinking and collaboration among students.
