Location: Tates Creek		I have attached another activity to work with systems of linear equations and elimination. The document includes the placemats and the directions.

Students will draw 6 cards from a deck and place them on the system placemat. They are then to decide which variable to eliminate and then eliminate it, writing out their steps.

Rules:
Reds = negative
Blacks = positive
J = 11
Q = 12
K = 13
A = 1
