Description

Give your Algebra 2 students clear practice dividing polynomials with this printable Thanksgiving maze. Students work through long division and synthetic division problems, then use each simplified quotient to follow the correct path through the maze. A recording sheet keeps work organized, and the answer key makes checking quick and simple. This is an easy way to reinforce when to use each division method.

Your students will enjoy this activity because they will know if they are right or wrong as they answer the questions. If your student gets the question correct, they will find it and it will lead them to the next problem. If they get it wrong, they will not find the answer – this will be a sign for them to go back and try again.

 

How It Works

Students start at the first box, divide the polynomial, and use their answer to find the next box in the maze. If the answer doesn’t appear, they know to check their work and try again. The self-checking layout helps students stay focused and reduces the grading you need to do afterward.
