Cryptic Cubes are a good way to relieve some of the monotony associated with drill and practice.


 


Below you will find a sample set of cubes which could be used with your class
for practice on solving equations and inequalities.

For more information on making cryptic cubes, see the "Cryptic Cubes" page.
