Polynomials and Factoring
Learners classify, add, subtract, and factor polynomials. For this polynomials lesson, students classify polynomials by creating their own system. During a discussion, the class decides on a common system. They add and subtract...
Curated OER
A Triangle Expansion
Students review the foil method used to multiply two binomials. For this lesson on evaluating algebraic expressions, students are able to identify the coefficient in an algebraic expression, "act out" the foil method of multiplying...
Curated OER
A Polynomial Quilt
Tenth graders create polynomial quilts. In this polynomials lesson, 10th graders use concrete models, such as construction paper, to create various shapes described. Students use the FOIL method to multiply terms and to get a square...
