Multi-Step Problems—All Operations
Harness the power of algebra to solve problems. Young mathematicians learn to work out multi-step problems by applying algebraic techniques, such as solving equations and proportions. They use tape diagrams to model the problem to finish...
Curated OER
Linear Equations Game
Young scholars participate in a mathematics game in order to investigate the concept of linear equations. They practice using rotations of the game to solve the equations. The teacher can intervene as necessary.
Curated OER
What's My Function?
Students use input / output tables to help them solve algebraic equations. They use patterns and relations to represent and analyze mathematical situations using algebraic symbols.
