Graphing Systems of Equations - Remix

As an introduction to systems of equations, you could use the desmos activity to help students understand solutions of systems, practice writing equations, and graphing.  While doing Desmos I suggest using the two students one device format.  This encourages collaboration and discussion.  You can pause the class for discussions and pace students to only view specific screens.

I would follow up the Desmos Activity with this Illustrative Math Activity where students have to write a system with a specific solution.  This activity would help solidify the concept of solution to a linear equation and solution to a system of equations.  Students could work in pairs and then use a gallery walk to review the various solutions.
