Length of Lesson

These lessons will give students an overview of basic algebra skills that will be used as a foundation for specific operations in algebra.

At the end of this lesson, students will be able to:

“I can translate and solve expressions from given variables.”

6.EE.2a
Write expressions that record operations with numbers and with letters standing for numbers. For example, express the calculation “Subtract y from 5” as 5 – y.
6.EE.6
Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-world or mathematical problem; understand that a variable can represent an unknown number, or, depending on the purpose at hand, any number in a specified set.

6.EE.2
Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers.
5.OA.2
Write simple expressions that record calculations with numbers, and interpret numerical expressions without evaluating them. For example, express the calculation “add 8 and 7, then multiply by 2” as 2 × (8 + 7). Recognize that 3 × (18932 + 921) is three times as large as 18932 + 921, without having to calculate the indicated sum or product.

E.1
E.1 Effectively contribute to a team through cooperation, leadership, and giving and accepting critical feedback to work toward a common goal.
E.6
E.6 Identify and effectively use skills and materials needed for a particular task.
E.7
E.7 Accurately analyze information and respond appropriately.
