Description
This animated Google Slide lesson and set of Guided Notes are designed to bring energy and clarity to your classroom while helping students master key concepts in grade 7 math. With visually engaging animations and an easy-to-follow structure, the lesson begins with a clear objective and an essential question to guide learning and focus students on the key takeaways. These interactive slides and notes template are perfect for whole-class instruction, small-group work, or independent learning! View the video lesson.
In this lesson, students will learn how to simplify and factor linear expressions that involve multiple operations. We begin with a clear procedural checklist: 1️⃣ Rewrite subtraction as addition if necessary 2️⃣ Distribute to remove parentheses when needed 3️⃣ Combine like terms to simplify the expression We will work with both integer and fractional coefficients so students build confidence handling all types of values. After simplifying expressions, we take the next step—factoring the simplified expressions using the greatest common factor (GCF). Throughout the video, exemplar solutions and guided practice problems are modeled and explained step-by-step, helping students make connections between simplifying, distributing, and factoring. This lesson supports Grade 7 Common Core Standard 7.EE.A.1 and builds essential algebra readiness skills.
