Goal - given manipulatives and math charts, student will solve 10 real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form x + p = q and px = q for cases in which p, q and x are all nonnegative rational numbers with at least 80% accuracy in 4 out of 5 trials as measured by student work samples/teacher records. objective - given manipulatives and math charts, studentwill solve 7 real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form x + p = q a...
This resource focuses on understanding and solving one-step equations. The learning objective is to apply mathematical concepts to write and solve equations that reflect real-world scenarios. Key vocabulary introduced includes terms such as equation, variable, and solution. The concept of balance in equations is emphasized, comparing equations to balance scales where both sides must remain equal. The document includes worked examples and practice problems for addition and multiplication equations, promoting the isolation of variables using inverse operations. It also incorporates real-world applications and formative assessments to check understanding and build confidence in translating word problems into equations.
