Launch your students on the path toward equation-solving success! Practice is the key to retention and these practice sheets work magic for my students to solidify the process for solving one-variable linear equations. A one-page reference poster to solving equations through a simple and repeatable five-step process is accompanied by three practice worksheets and their associated answer keys in this bundle. The three practice worksheets cover one-step, two-step, and multi-step linear equations in one-variable.

I like to integrate these worksheets directly into my instruction, demonstrating the process for solving an equation and then providing the students with an opportunity to put the process into action themselves with equations that replicate the format they've just observed. I have found great success with this method of instruction and guided practice, resulting in learning gains exceeding 90% at the pre-algebra and algebra 1 levels.

Bundle Includes 8 files in total:

One-Step Equations - Practice Worksheet and Answer Key (.pdf files)

Two-Step Equations - Practice Worksheet and Answer Key (.pdf files)

Multi-Step Equations - Practice Worksheet and Answer Key (.pdf files)

5 Step Reference Poster as a .pdf file and also includes the .ppt source file so that you can customize it to your specific context.

Practice Worksheets and Answer Keys are produced in half-sheet (two per page) format for easy class quantity production.

This bundle is ideal for guided instruction, centers, and independent practice and is common core aligned. I hope this bundle works as well for you as it has for me and my students.

All the best!
