Use a Variable to Write an Algebraic Expression
- Grade:
- 6
- Subject:
- Math
This algebra and functions lesson focuses on using a variable to write an algebraic expression. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the problem, identifying the unknown amount, the given number or known amount, and the operation (using clue words or actions such as sum, difference, product, or quotient). Then, they write the algebraic expression. In addition to the lesson, there are eight pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
Use Algebraic Terminology (Numerical Expression, Algebraic Expression)
- Grade:
- 6
- Subject:
- Math
This equations and expressions lesson covers the use of a variety of algebraic terminology. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students identify the difference between numeric and algebraic expressions. Students also determine whether algebraic expressions have enough information to be evaluated.
Evaluate Algebraic Expressions Using Substitution
- Grade:
- 6
- Subject:
- Math
This expressions and equations lesson teaches students how to solve algebraic expressions. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students substitute a given value for a variable in the algebraic expression and then solve.
Verify the Solution to an Equation
