This algebra and functions lesson focuses on using parentheses in expressions. The lesson includes research-based strategies and questions that help prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students write the given expression twice. Then, they insert parentheses around different locations of the expression and evaluate each expression to determine which is correct. Finally, students interpret their answer and read aloud. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and Periodic Reviews with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

This algebra and functions lesson focuses on using the distributive property in expressions with variables. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students identify the factor and then multiply the factor outside the parentheses to each value inside the parentheses. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items and six flash cards.

This algebra and functions lesson focuses on using the order of operations. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students determine which operation to perform first (using PEMDAS) and repeat the order of operations until no more can be performed. Then, they compute the final value. In addition to the lesson, there are thirteen pages of Independent Practice and Periodic Reviews with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

This expressions and equations lesson teaches students how to write numerical expressions using exponential form. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will use the exponential form to represent different values. Students will also relate exponents to place value and develop other conceptual understandings of what exponents are. This lesson does not cover evaluating expressions with exponents.
