🧩 Method Match Evidence Sort

Students analyze a set of worked quadratic examples on card strips: one needing GCF first, one suited to trinomial factoring, one suited to grouping, and one with no real factorization. In pairs, they sort each example by best-fit method, mark the evidence that makes the method efficient, and flag any weak or incomplete reasoning in the sample work. The class then builds a shared anchor chart of structural clues, limits, and counterexamples to use in later claims.
