To make this activity more fun and to avoid excessive paper use, you can use the following idea. You need to print out the number of worksheets as many students there are in your class. You will also need a transparent file, whiteboard pens, and pieces of soft cloth or cotton pads. Put a paper copy into the file and hand it out, as well as a pen and a soft cloth. Give out a copy per pair or a copy per person. Children solve the equations. As soon as they have finished, they erase their answers using a soft cloth and pass a copy to the right, clockwise. Now all of the class has a new copy to work with.
This activity is suitable for 9-10 years old students, U.S. school 3rd and 4th grade.
