Description
Are your students struggling to grasp absolute value equations? These Guided Notes provide a straightforward way to help them understand this essential concept. Designed with clarity in mind, this resource breaks down the absolute value of a number, emphasizing its meaning as the distance from zero on a number line.
Students will learn how to solve absolute value equations, including special cases where the equation equals a negative number. Each section includes clear definitions, key ideas, and carefully chosen example problems that illustrate critical scenarios. This structure not only helps students stay organized but also encourages them to think critically about problem-solving approaches.
With these notes, your students will build a solid foundation in understanding absolute value, paving the way for more complex mathematical concepts. It's a practical tool to keep them engaged and focused while they develop their skills in solving equations.
Common Core State Standards (CCSS):
• 7.EE.A.1: Apply properties of operations to add, subtract, factor, and expand linear expressions with rational coefficients.
• HSA.CED.A.4: Write, solve, and/or apply a linear equation (including problem situations).
• HSA.SSE.A.2: Write, solve, and/or apply a linear equation (including problem situations).
Pennsylvania Core Standards:
• A1.1.2.1.1: Write, solve, and/or apply a linear equation (including problem situations).
• M07.B-E.1.1.1: Apply properties of operations to add, subtract, factor, and expand linear expressions with rational coefficients.
ALSO INCLUDED:
Answer Keys: All questions and exercises have complete and detailed answers with the steps required to solve problems.
Editable Files: Microsoft Word versions of the student version of files are provided if you would like to edit the documents. Documents might be editable in Google Docs, but formatting may not transfer with full fidelity.
Google Warm-Up and Exit Tickets: Each lesson comes with a Google Slide with warm-up questions, a Google Slide with an exit ticket, and a Google Form Quiz that could be used as a warm-up, exit ticket or other assessment. The quiz is already set up to auto-grade student responses.
Curriculum Map with Standards and Pacing: (See preview) The Curriculum Map shows where this resource fits within the unit of this course. Additional resources can be purchased individually or as part of the full unit.
