Adding and Subtracting Algebraic Fractions

Address any kind of math concept or problem with a series of problem-solving strategies. Over 12 days of different activities and increasing skills, learners practice different ways to solve problems, check their answers, and reflect...

Build confidence by using multiple approaches to problem solving! This resource uses a visual and algebraic approach to solving application problems. A discussion is included about efficient approaches to different problems.

Use ratios to solve problems that are not proportions. The instructional activity has pupils solve multi-step ratio problems that involve fractional increases and decreases. The problems involve mark-ups, discounts, commissions, and...

Let's hope class participants don't get motion sickness. In the lesson plan, class members first solve motion problems using tables and graphs. They then use algebraic techniques to solve motion problems.

One thing that puzzles a lot of young algebrists is the factors in a word problem that are taken as "understood". This presentation on solving systems of linear inequalities does a great job walking the learner through how to tease those...

A brief presentation with laser-like focus, this video talks young mathematicians through the mechanics of simplifying algebraic fractions by factoring trinomials. While the factoring itself is assumed to be a mastered skill, the...

Take your class through the mechanics of simplifying algebraic fractions by factoring trinomials. Though the steps for factoring are assumed known, the process of identifying and canceling common factors are detailed with...

School subjects connect when your young scholars use math to edit English. Math allows you to convert an entire paragraph into a simple equation or inequality. Examples encourage learners to write expressions, equations, and inequalities...
