Like Terms: Intro Lesson Plan + Slides + Student Work + Answer Key 7.EE.A

Description

I love using thisMad TV video to introduce combining like terms</a> with humor (and address the persistent "why?" question in many students' minds)

This introductory lesson helps structure a discussion to move from the silliness of the comedy sketch, to the value and concept of combining like terms.

This lesson plan includes:

Complete lesson plan
Slides to facilitate group discussion
Student work / Independent Practice
Answer Keys
Extension Worksheet + Answer Key

Students will practice moving from words to variables, and from an expanded expression to a simplified one. 3 pages of student work offer both structured practice and open-ended questions.

Student work in this lesson focuses on expressions with coefficients and variables to represent real world scenarios; an extension page is included to practice like terms including variables and exponents.

CCSS6.EE.A.2

Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers.

CCSS6.EE.A.2a

Write expressions that record operations with numbers and with letters standing for numbers. For example, express the calculation “Subtract 𝘺 from 5” as 5 - 𝘺.

CCSS6.EE.A.3

Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3 (2 + 𝘹) to produce the equivalent expression 6 + 3𝘹; apply the distributive property to the expression 24𝘹 + 18𝘺 to produce the equivalent expression 6 (4𝘹 + 3𝘺); apply properties of operations to 𝘺 + 𝘺 + 𝘺 to produce the equivalent expression 3𝘺.
