Solving Linear Equations Four in a Row | 3x - 5 = 16 : Level 07 | 10-Version Maths Pack

Build fluency without repeating the same worksheet with this complete Solving Linear Equations Four in a Row Level 07 pack. The level focus is: Solve av − b = c with positive integers. Question types include: Positive Two-Step: av - b = c. You receive all ten genuinely different versions of the level, giving 360 questions in total while keeping the mathematical demand and learning objective consistent.

WHAT IS INCLUDED
The download contains ten classroom-ready 17-page PDFs, one for each version. Every version includes a playable Four in a Row board, the matching numbered question list and a complete answer key. Each PDF also carries the full Solving Linear Equations progression ladder and teacher guidance, making the pack easy to place within a scheme of work. The versions are suitable for parallel classes, repeat practice, intervention, homework, revision or fresh retrieval over time.

WHY FOUR IN A ROW?
Students solve questions and locate the corresponding answers on the board, aiming to connect four spaces. The game structure gives practice a visible purpose and encourages students to check each stage rather than rush to a final answer. It works well for pairs, small groups or individual challenge. Teachers can use it for a lesson starter, main practice task, intervention session, cover lesson, revision activity, early-finisher task or low-stakes assessment.

BUILT AROUND PROGRESSION
The resource is not a random collection of equations. Discrete levels isolate a new mathematical demand so misconceptions are easier to identify. Consolidation levels then mix the skills students have already met. Local consolidation revisits the most recent block, while cumulative consolidation draws from the journey so far. This gives teachers useful stopping points for mixed-attainment classes: some students can secure the current skill while others tackle broader interleaving at the same stage.

DESIGNED TO SAVE TEACHER TIME
Everything needed to run and check the activity is supplied. Questions are numbered clearly, answers are provided and the level focus is explicit. Print the relevant pages, display the board or use the question list for independent work. Because the format remains familiar while the equations change, routines are quick to establish. This listing provides ten games, 360 questions and ten answer keys.

TYPICAL QUESTIONS
Do students need special equipment? No: ordinary classroom stationery is enough. Can the resource be used independently? Yes; the question list and answer key support self-checking or teacher-led review. Is this suitable only as a game? No; the questions can also be used as conventional practice, tutoring material or assessment prompts. Are answers included? Yes, every included version has a matching answer key.

The result is structured algebra practice that is easy to deploy, clear to navigate and flexible enough for whole-class teaching, intervention and independent revision. The consistent layout reduces explanation time and lets attention stay on mathematical reasoning.
