This algebra and functions lesson focuses on writing the equation of a linear function. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students identify each rule that could be applied to the x-value and result in the y-value. Then, they verify which rule is true by testing each on the next x-value in the table. Finally, they select the rule that makes the function true. In addition to the lesson, there are sixteen pages of Independent Practice and Periodic Reviews with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.

This algebra and functions lesson focuses on writing equations. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments.

This algebra and functions lesson focuses on evaluating expressions by using the order of operations. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students substitute the given value of each variable into the expression. Then, they evaluate the expression by determining which operation to perform first (using PEMDAS) and repeating the order until no more operations can be performed. Finally, they compute the value and interpret the answer. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items and 12 flashcards for the order of operations.

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.

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.
