Introduction to solving equations
Lesson presentations and activities
This lesson is an introduction to equations by analogy with the balance scale. The animations show what happens when we try to find the mystery weight x, and what to write down in algebra. At the end of the powerpoint is a group activity where students have to solve the equations and spot the pattern in the numbers they find.

A series of lessons taking students through 'I think of a number' problems to simple equations, equations with brackets to letters on both sides to equations with fractional parts.

Based on Manoj Mistry (manojm03)'s excellent Mathonopoly idea, this is an adapted version I've made. The questions are designed for Year 7 students being introduced to solving equations. I&'ve also created some humerous chance and community chest cards (although some references may need to change to suit your school).

It's fantastic that so much high quality content is available free of charge. For those of us with woefully underresourced departments, it's a godsend. Thank you!
pupils write the algebraic equation from the function machine.

Designed for lower ability year 7s, this includes examples on how to write and solve the equations ('I think of a number' type questions).
The balance method is used to solve the equations but you can adapt to use other methods.Reviews

Three different codebreakers covering solving equations of increasing difficulty as you go through them. Solve the equations, find the letter and complete the anagrams of films.

The questions are good, but the phrases spelled out are a little dark for the classroom.

Really good. Although in the sheet 3, word 2 letter 3 works out to be 1.5 not 0.5 giving the wrong letter. Easy to change when downloaded. One mistake is worth the rest of it for free! Thank you :)
