Description
Ensure your students have the foundational knowledge needed to do well on the SAT Math section with our Multi-Step Equations Lesson!
Focus on the fundamentals needed for the SAT Math Section with this comprehensive lesson that teaches students about simplifying an equation and isolating a variable. Students will get a refresher on inverse operations and learn the step-by-step process to isolating a variable.
Learning Target
“I can solve multi-step equations and evaluate expressions.”
Key Benefits
- Foundational Learning: This lesson provides important information needed to solve a majority of the Math section’s problems.
- Deeper Skills: While most students might understand the basics of PEMDAS, this lesson starts to provide a deeper look at when and how to use it depending on if the students are simplifying or isolating a problem.
- Flexible Timing: With a set of 10 extra practice problems, this lesson is designed to fit a variety of classroom schedules and can be completed in 1 to 2 hours, allowing flexibility for deeper understanding and additional activities.
- Scaffolded Learning: The second of a three part series, this lesson is designed to pick up where Simplifying Expressions left off and to flow directly into Manipulating Variables.
Key Activities
- Inverse Operations: An easy-to-follow breakdown of the most commonly represented operations on the SAT Math Section and each operation’s inverse.
- Multi-Step Equation Process: Students learn the step-by-step process for simplifying an equation, isolating a variable, and using the isolated value properly to solve the problem.
- Game-ified Learning: A fun spin on a relay race builds energy and hype by giving students an opportunity to move and to collaborate with their peers.

Included In Every Lesson
- Learning Target: A clear goal for each lesson helps both teacher and students narrow their focus and know where the finish line is for the day.
- Do Now and Exit Ticket: An activity at the start to get students thinking about the lesson’s topic or reviewing the previous lesson’s topic and an activity at the end to help both teacher and students gauge how well students met the learning target.
- Guiding Questions and Lit Tips: Students' understanding will be repeatedly aided by “Guiding Questions” and “Lit Tips” that help students dive deeper into the lesson’s topics and questions.
- Teacher Instructions and Explanations: Each lesson comes with a “teacher version” that provides detailed instructions on how to conduct the lesson, such as logistical needs, timing considerations, and how to stretch students’ answers. Furthermore, each question has the correct answer with a detailed explanation of what the correct answer is and why it’s the correct one.
