A new way to give a worksheet...Question Stack

I have had the greatest opportunity of attending the Greene County Math Drive-In several times and each time I walk away with some really awesome resources.  If you have the opportunity to attend one I promise you will not regret it.  The concept is catching on in other subjects and other areas of NC.

So one activity I've taken away and used SEVERAL times is the Question Stack.  What you do is take a worksheet (I typically use kutasoftware worksheets with the answers) and put a problem on one side of a card with the answer to another problem on the back.

The students would work a problem, find the answer on another card and put the answer on top of the problem so that a new problem is showing.  They solve the new problem and continue to stack up the cards until they are all stacked.  The answer to the top problem should be on the bottom of the stack.

The students typically prefer this over just working through a worksheet...especially if there is some sort of incentive for the first group to finish.

I have made several Question Stacks for many different topics.  The templates are made to be manually fed through a printer (ie NOT in a copier).  I usually print them on bright cardstock and they have held up well over the years.  Laminating would probably last a lot longer (and discourage writing on the cards).
