Mixed Integer Operations Review Digital Pixel Art Mystery Activity

An engaging, no print, no-prep resource to give your students practice adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing integers with a fun mystery picture! There are 20 practice questions that, when solved correctly, reveal a colorful picture of Mario, a popular video game character!

Students are given 20 mixed integer addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems that represent a wide range of positive and negative combinations! When students type the correct answer to a problem, the answer box turns green and part of the picture is revealed. If students enter an incorrect answer, the box remains white and nothing changes in the picture, allowing you to easily see where students need help! This independent practice activity builds computer and math skills at the same time.
