Expanding single brackets

This is a full lesson based on 80 mins but could easily be altered to suit your classes. The settling starter is a multiplication grid followed by the learning objectives slide. The starter looks at different types of algebra and how to identify if you are talking about an expression, an identity, a formula or an equation. This is followed by some examples, notes to put into books and differentiated questions. The extra practice activity is a tarzia, I have attached the tarzia document along with a word version of it. Finally the plenary is an exit ticket, there is a word version of that to print off as well.
