Powerpoint Game Reviewing Slope/Intercepts

I'm always looking for a way to involve students in mastering content through games.  The following game works well for practicing finding slope and intercepts of linear functions.  The game can be fast paced, and doesn't require extra materials.

Mixed Practice Equations of Lines

Just before our Thanksgiving Break, we had a rare "review" day ... a much needed review day.  My students have found manipulating equations of lines difficult.  They understand the basic concepts but struggle with the details.  Students are weak in working with integers in particular.  So they often drop significant positive or negative signs.

I gave students 8 pieces of information.  They had to use the information to write the related equation in slope-intercept form and standard form.  They had to identify the slope and intercept, and then graph the function.

Here is the practice students completed:  Mixed Practice Equations of Lines
