Lesson Portion (Digital and Printable)
In “present mode”, use the built in transitions to make learning easier through step by step instructions and interactive algebra tile demonstrations. Students will learn:
- Essential vocabulary: Equation, constant, variable, isolating the variable, opposite operation
- Skills for solving 1 step equations (e.g., a + 6 = 68 or 4a = 16)
- Building on these skills in order to solve 2 step equations (e.g., e + 3 = 7 - 3 or 5f = 28 - 3)
- Building on these skills in order to solve 3 step equations (e.g., 3g - 3 = 22 + 2 or 6 x 3 = 5b + 3)
- Building on these skills in order to solve multi part equations (e.g., If 5 + a = 13 and 2b + 3a = 50, Solve for b)
- Building on these skills in order to solve algebra equations with decimals to the tenths (e.g., 9.2y - 8 = 19.6)
- Steps for double checking your work
- Solving tips (makes a GREAT anchor chart for the the virtual or in-person classroom)
Practice Portion for Math Centers (Digital and Printable)
Task cards: Includes 5 different levels!
- 1 step
- 2 step
- 3 step
- More complex 3 step
- Multiple part equations
- With decimals
Each level allows students to practice one concept at a time, while checking their work with the provided answers. Perfect for at home learning or as a math center.
Self Assess and Apply (Digital and Printable)
Crack the code puzzles: 3 different levels for each of the no decimal and decimal version.
Students will self assess and then apply their understanding to a crack the code puzzle using their new skills. Great math center or assessment activity.
- I am still learning but I will give it a try level: 1 and 2 step equations
- I’ve got this level: 2 and 3 step equations
- I am here for a challenge: 2, 3 and multiple part equations
* Please note that the decimal and non-decimal versions of the puzzles include some of the same equations, giving you multiple different choices to meet the needs of your students.
BONUS: This product also includes a bonus Jamboard file with 4 levels of algebra questions (no decimals) for formative or summative assessment.
