🧮 Just Do This: Solving Equations I — The BasicsClassroom-Ready Instruction for Teachers Who Want Tools, Not TheoryToo often, students learn to “solve for x” by memorizing steps they don’t understand — leaving them confident with one-step equations but lost when the problems get even slightly more complex. This Just Do This: Math module helps teachers get it right from the beginning by focusing on conceptual understanding through a Concrete–Representational–Abstract (CRA) progression. ✅

⭐ Solving Equations III: The Distributive Property — A Complete CRA Teaching ModuleHelp your students finally understand the distributive property — not just memorize steps. This classroom-ready Just Do This: Math module takes students from hands-on concrete models to clear representational sketches and finally to confident abstract algebra, using a proven Concrete–Representational–Abstract (CRA) progression. Perfect for Grades 6–9 and for intervention groups who need a structured, visual

Writing Algebraic Expressions from Word Problems — Step-by-Step Lessons This teacher module provides a clear sequence for teaching students how to move from a word problem to a clean algebraic expression. Each page focuses on one move at a time, with short teacher notes and worked examples that you can use as-is. What it helps you do Introduce variables and identify the changing quantity Work through a few starter scenarios to make the situation concrete Build a simple table of values to

Teach two-step equations with confidence — and without the guesswork. This complete Just Do This: Math module gives teachers a clear, classroom-ready path for moving students from concrete models, to representational diagrams, to abstract written solutions. Whether you’re introducing two-step equations for the first time or reteaching foundational skills, this resource provides the visuals, examples, and guided practice needed to make the concept make sense. Unlike typical two-step equation
