After reviewing percent problems and introducing the concept of "commissions" to the students, we moved into introducing a game among partners. The name is "Match It and Prove It." Students shuffle and spread the question cards facing up on their table. Next, they shuffle the answer cards and place them facedown in a pile. The first student turns over an answer card and both students compete to match the problem to the correct answer to prove that the match is mathematically correct. The person who matches the question and answer correctly keeps both cards. If neither student gets the correct answer, the answer card is placed at the bottom of the answer card pile. Students take turns turning over answer cards. Students were required to keep a record of question cards answered withe the answers along with their work on the sheets provided in their MTN's.
