Another great tarsia on solving linear equations, mostly two step equations but some with brackets and unknowns on each side. There are no surprises so this is ideal for lower ability if you just want to consolidate and build up some confidence. This would make a great main activity, it is a bit lengthy to use as a starter or wrap up. Thank you for sharing.
