<p>Suitable for both Key stage 3 and 4. This worksheet is designed to help pupils revise expanding single brackets. The challenge section features questions involving the expansion of double brackets. The worksheet is fully differentiated (mild, medium spicy, hot and challenge) allowing pupils to work at different levels simultaneously. The worksheet also features a section for pupils to self-assess their understanding and set a target for next lesson.</p> <p>Answers included which can be projected directly onto the smart board.</p>

<p>FULL lesson on expanding single brackets with focus on mastery and bar modeling through the areas of shapes.</p>

The worksheet is in three parts of difficulty in order to give pupils the confidence to expand brackets. The sheet doesnt have any squares which allows the pupils to build confidence with setting out termsd and practising mulitplication. The first part is to ensure that pupils are confident in the way the expression is to be written out and taking care of the addition or subtraction signs. When this is marked, pupils can move on to the second stage. The students further practise multiplication and there is a third term in the expression. The final part of the sheet is where pupils ahve to add two sets of brackets added together. By this stage the teacher has given enough support to be able to give the pupil the skills to expand brackets with confidence.

<p>This well thought out worksheet has been structured to increase in difficulty gradually, beginning with scaffolded intro examples and building up to challenging extension questions that really get them thinking.<br />  <br /> <strong>Under the hood</strong></p> <ul> <li>Examples with positive numbers inside the brackets</li> <li>Examples with negative numbers inside the brackets</li> <li>Examples with numbers in front of x inside the brackets - e.g., (2x + 3)(5x - 4)</li> <li>Examples with more than one different letter in the brackets - e.g., (x + 3)(y + 4)</li> <li>Examples where the bracket is squared - e.g., (x - 3)^2</li> </ul> <p> <br /> Thorough, comprehensive, and carefully designed to boost confidence and grades.<br />  <br /> <strong>Answers included</strong></p> <p>Not completely convinced?

This is a full lesson based on 80 mins but could easily be changed to suit your classes. The settling starter is a simplifying activity followed by the learning objective for the lesson. The main starter is a match up activity expanding one bracket. It then goes on to examples where you have 2 brackets to expand separately and then simplify the result there are differentiated questions to follow. The extra practice is a treasure hunt. The plenary is an exit ticket which is also available to print on a word document

This my attempt to create a sheet that ticks all the boxes.<br /> The sheet includes:<br /> Literacy section with key words and definitions<br /> Write on the sheet starter <br /> Lesson objective<br /> (The above a set in a box to allow pupils to cut out and stick these into their book)<br /> Three sets of questions to aid differentiation by task rather than outcome<br /> A set of extension questions<br /> Plenary questions to check understanding<br /> Homework questions (differentiated)<br /> Additional info on how to check if answers are correct and where this skill would be used in real life.<br /> Coloured background and step by step instructions to help support SEND pupils.<br /> This sheet is on expanding a single bracket building up to expanding and simplifying.

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.

This is a fun way for students to revise expanding expressions using a famous artist (Keith Haring) colouring sheet.<br /> <br /> Students identify the solution to each question in one of the three answer boxes. They then find the question number on the colouring sheet and colour the section in the colour that corresponds to their answer.<br /> <br /> Included in your purchase is ONE activity: a question sheet, answer sheet and colouring sheet. I print this as an A5 booklet (also included) so that students can then glue this into their notebooks.<br /> <br /> Students can also mark their answers by comparing their colouring sheet to the original artwork. An engaging way for students to learn about algebra and art!

<p>This colouring worksheet includes 20 questions on expanding single brackets. The questions increase in difficulty and include multiplying variables by variables and negatives.</p> <p>Students should answer the question then colour in the image corresponding to answer.<br /> This activity is fun, engaging and a great way to work on fine motor skills.</p> <p>Can be used as homework, classwork, summary activity and more.</p> <p>Answer key is included.</p> <p>If you like this activity please leave a review :)</p>

A fully differentiated lesson with an extension on expanding brackets. Each section is also differentiated with negatives or coefficients being at the end rather than start of the question which throws a lot of students off balance. I had been observed teaching this lesson and received very positive feedback about planning, covering misconceptions and differentiation.
