Product Information
Give your students the framework they need to understand Algebra. This manipulative contains three lesson plans that build on one another. Each lesson has a step-by-step procedure and color coded teacher narrative to guide you. Throughout each lesson, your entire class will take turns as Calculators who handle the number square and do what the expression tells them. The Mathematicians change what the expression says and the rest of your class will be engaged observers. Some concepts that are covered include algebraic terminology, equation manipulation and balancing, and using order of operations to solve equations. Students begin by learning the algebraic terminology using color-coded symbols in place of numbers to learn the steps they have to follow to solve an equation. Lessons then introduce numbers gradually until students master the concepts. Pegging Algebra keeps your students involved and intrigued while learning challenging algebraic concepts. Developed by teacher, Kent Erickson. For grades 4-8. Includes instructions.
