PASSPORT
Today you’re going on a mathematical
adventure. There are four different Math Visas
passport “stamps” to acquire. The goal
#1 #2
is to collect as many of them as you
can. You can complete them in any
order.

When you have completed the problems

from one of the passport sets, bring it
to your teacher. If it is correct, your
teacher will give you a stamp for this
page and you can continue your #3 #4
journey. If there are mistakes, your
teacher will give you a hint. Once you
find and correct your mistake(s), you
can bring your work back to the teacher
for a recheck.

Good luck!
