This is an engaging guiding practice on combining like terms & distributive property. It is easy to follow, consisting of 4 parts, 10 worked out examples and 6 tasks for students to do. First part is presenting the term like terms as students fulfill two tasks. Second is presenting the operation combining like terms, students are shown how to perform this operation in four worked out examples and then they are given four problems to solve. Third is simplifying algebraic expressions using combining like terms. Here students have two examples to follow so to solve four problems. And the fourth part is the distributive property and combining like terms. Students learn that when they have an expression with parentheses like a(b+c) they first need to apply the distributive property and then to combine the like terms. It is demonstrated with 3 worked out examples. Finally students are given to simplify 7 algebraic expressions as the last two need to be evaluated for given values of the variables.
