After playing the Absolute Value Equation Game with my students. I gave them an exit ticket, just to prove to myself that I'm awesome and games can solve every woe. Little did I know that although they could easily solve the equations at the board while playing the game, they had difficulty making the connection on paper. Take a look for yourself...
I don't feel that all hope is lost. On the contrary, I feel that I have an easy entry point for working on this topic. "Remember how you came to the board and blah, blah, blah, blah?" Yes, I will keep you posted.
I hate IDK. Just saying.
