I have used this with both my year 7 groups. They all loved it. A great way for them to practice substitution and they were all very keen to check each others answers to make sure the correct person got the cards. Fantastic, thanks

Absolutely brilliant resource. My year 7's and other staff are asking for it daily! Great practise and even the weaker students can play without assistance! Well done and thanks for sharing.

Fantastic. Many thanks. I find the very best resources always relate to algebra ... but then I am a big fan of the topic!
