Two - Step Inequalities - "True or False" Activity
nikimathnikimath

Two - Step Inequalities - "True or False" Activity

(0)
This is an engaging “true or false” activity on solving two-step inequalities. On each slide students are given five pairs of inequalities A and B and buttons “true” and “false” corresponding to each pair of inequalities. Students solve inequality A which is a two-step inequality and state whether it is equivalent to the inequality B which is of type x>a, or x<a, x≦a or x≧a. Then students crossed out the incorrect button “true” or “false”. The slides with problems are three (a total of 15 inequalities). The last five inequalities are a bit more challenging, but can also be solved with two steps. The answer key is contained at the end of this document. NOTE: I created this product with Google Slides. I uploaded it here in PDF format as I have included 2 PDF files - the one has each slide as a page and the other has three slides on a page for easy and more economic printing!

Combining Like Terms (without & with Distributive Property) - 2 Scavenger Hunts Cut & Paste

(0)
These are two scavenger hunt activities with a symbol path on combining like terms (without and with applying the distributive property). Activity directions: Students start at the problem on the card with this symbol ❖. They solve the problem, look for the answer on another card, see the symbol on it, then go to the second page and cut this symbol and paste it onto the next space on the path given on the third page. Then solve the second problem (which is on the card having the answer of the first problem) . Students continue in this manner until they return to the card they started on. They should “visit” all 14 cards before returning to the start. Answer keys are included.

Combining Like Terms - Guiding Practice/Lesson
nikimathnikimath

Combining Like Terms - Guiding Practice/Lesson

(0)
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. Answer keys are included.
