Lesson Purpose

The purpose of this lesson will give students an idea of how important it is to follow procedures and directions for any given task.  When combining operations, if you do not follow the correct order, you may get an incorrect answer.  It is also important for everyone on your team to be on the same page in regards to procedural understanding in order to communicate effectively, relating directly to the workplace. Students will have to know how to follow procedures when given tasks in the healthcare field, such as operating special equipment or how to administer an IV. This also builds a foundation for later work in algebraic expressions and equations.
