Solving Equations and Inequalities

This is my first resource which incorporates backwards fading worked examples and pictoral representations before introducing the concept in an abstract nature.

Each concept is then introduced through direct instruction, focused practice and then a diagnostic question and/or a purposeful practice activity.
Answers are included in the presentation.
There are also active learning suggestions, including games and challenges.
The direct instruction slides follow my “Education Scotland friendly” adaptation of Craig Barton’s example problems pairs.
I have also included some of my own diagnostic questions in the presentation.

If you want more questions of a similar style; Maths bot and Dynamic Maths are excellent websites where endless questions can be generated.
