What educators are saying

This was one of my students and my favorite activities for practicing linear equations!! My students loved "catching the zombies". Huge plus that it is self-checking by capturing one zombie per problem! Highly recommend!!!!
I used this activity for my early finishers to keep them engaged while I worked at a slower pace with other students. They had fun, and it allowed them to practice without doing pencil and paper work.

After many requests a "Catching Zombies" version has been added. It's the exact same activity and problems but replaces the word "Killing" for "Catching". It's included in the resource download after purchase.

How it Works- Students are given a graph with 12 zombies on it and 12 y=mx+b equations. Students will cut out each equation and graph the line on the zombie graph. They will then glue the equation next to the zombie that it “killed”. Zombies are “killed” when a line runs through any part of their body. Precision is key in this activity as each line should only run through 1 zombie. If a line runs through more than 1 zombie the student was not precise enough.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a linear function represented by a table of values and a linear function represented by an algebraic expression, determine which function has the greater rate of change.
Interpret the equation 𝘺 = 𝘮𝘹 + 𝘣 as defining a linear function, whose graph is a straight line; give examples of functions that are not linear. For example, the function 𝘈 = 𝑠² giving the area of a square as a function of its side length is not linear because its graph contains the points (1,1), (2,4) and (3,9), which are not on a straight line.
Use function notation, evaluate functions for inputs in their domains, and interpret statements that use function notation in terms of a context.
Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases.
Graph linear and quadratic functions and show intercepts, maxima, and minima.
