Students translate between verbal and algebraic expressions. After folding paper into four sections (multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction), students list code words under the appropriate section title. Next, they...

Sixth graders practice translating verbal expressions into algebraic expressions. In this introductory algebra lesson, 6th graders practice writing written/verbal sentences into algebraic expressions and vice versa. Students also review...

Students view a PowerPoint and practice writing algebraic expressions from word phrases. In this algebra instructional activity, students utilize phrases such as, "plus, minus, sum, difference, increased by and subtracted from." There...

Young scholars rewrite word problems using algebraic symbols. In this algebra instructional activity, students graph linear equations after they rewrite the equation using algebra. They relate math to the real world.

Start this activity with a brief description of how to solve absolute value inequalities. A space is provided to help classify the inequalities into types (greater than, less than, or equal to) and for learners to show how to graph their...

Students simplify problems using the rules of exponents and practice translating word sentences to algebraic expressions. Through a teacher led lecture and demonstration of exponent rules, students take notes and observe how to simply...

Students describe relations and graph linear functions. After studying a geometric shape and a verbal statement, students contrast the differences between the verbal statement and the picture. They determine functions and graph...

Students graph inequalities and solve the equations. In this algebra lesson, students graph their solutions on a number line and create an inequality for a word problem.
