Description
This packet is designed to place in your, the teacher’s, hands, everything needed to teach students about the skill of rearranging formulas, or solving one variable equations with unknown coefficients. This is the point at which students can no longer rely on mathematical arithmetic facts to arrive at solutions to equations. That skill, using math facts to solve equations, is very powerful and useful, and should be used to develop the more abstract skill of using inverse operations to solve equations. To do that, students must learn how to read and write mathematically, they must develop mathematical literacy. That is why this is such a powerful and important lesson!
When you download this bundle you’ll receive a zip folder with a Read Me document that organizes all of the documents within, making deploying the lessons easy. (You can see how this document looks from the picture posted below.) The folder also includes a high quality, well organized, a teacher’s companion that breaks down the key concepts and provides focus for your instruction, a high quality, PowerPoint, reference notes to assign for student reading or reference, one homework assignment, and links to internet hosted information aligned with this lesson for student or parent reference. There are two homework assignments. The online information includes videos, online notes, and practice problems from Khan Academy.
As is the case with all of the bundles and lessons from Math Connected, you can use the materials easily in a traditional lesson, a flipped classroom setting, or a virtual classroom. If you assign the notes to be read by the students, they’ll further develop their literacy and experience with technical writing. Either way, they’re a great reference for students.
All of the materials here are aligned in a way that you can support students of various abilities, while providing access to content for review or for absent students, and even parents that want to have access so they can “help,” their child perform well in class.
