Translating Expressions
Edit
Today I desire to portion our root Algebra 1 notes of the year. I'm structuring my course of didactics a fight differently this year. This year, my finish is to give my students to a greater extent than meaningful problems to solve. I desire to contextualize every work possible. In the past, I've given my students lots of equations to solve that were only numbers together with variables without meaning. I've given my students written expressions to interpret into algebraic expressions without giving them a argue for why nosotros needed to interpret them. This year, my finish is to fix my course of didactics together with hence that students start to meet how everything nosotros are doing ties together.
My root finish of the yr was to larn students translating expressions, differentiating betwixt expressions, equations, together with inequalities, together with identifying their parts.
To kicking off the lesson, nosotros took notes on the definitions of expressions, equations, together with inequalities. Then, I had each cast brand their ain examples of each. I constitute that almost all of my classes wanted to attain expressions, equations, together with inequalities that were all numbers together with no variables. At first, this frustrated me. Then, I began to realize that this was a groovy cast of formative assessment. It showed me just what my students were comfortable with.
On the within of the foldable, at that topographic point are 3 sections: expressions, equations, together with inequalities.
I also gave students 12 boxes. Each box had an expression, an equation, or an inequality written inwards give-and-take form.
The root thing nosotros did was attain upward one's hear whether each box was an expression, equation, or inequality. Once they were all glued into our foldable, nosotros went through each 1 together with highlighted the cardinal terms. We used these cardinal price to interpret them into algebra.
To attention my students conk on rail of all of the cardinal words together with what they (usually) mean, I gave my students a cardinal give-and-take nautical chart to mucilage inwards their interactive notebooks.
Since we'll hold out using this nautical chart ALL yr long, I wanted to mucilage this nautical chart into our notebook inwards such a agency that nosotros tin reference it easily.
To accomplish this, I had my students tri-fold the chart. When we're non using the chart, it lays inwards tri-folded cast on a left-hand page inwards our notebooks.
When nosotros ask to reference it, it folds out of our notebooks. As y'all tin see, the blank department is glued into our notebooks.
The awesome thing virtually this is after inwards the year, we'll withal hold out able to meet the nautical chart no thing what page we're on inwards our notebook.
Here's our nautical chart when non inwards use.
Note the "turn around" words at the bottom. These are the phrases that nation students to switch the lodge from how it is written betwixt give-and-take cast together with algebra form. I've used this strategy for several years, but this is the root fourth dimension I've always given my students the "turn around" phrase inwards impress amongst students. Now, my students are continually reminding each other, "Hey, don't forget it's a plough roughly word!" which is only music to a math teacher's ears!
To become over the parts of an expression, nosotros made a "poof book" that covers terms, coefficients, together with constants. Here's the embrace of the book:
Not certain how this mass was assembled? I did a postal service on a mass for a unlike topic amongst the same template/approach here.
Notes over terms:
Notes over coefficients:
Notes over constants:
After discussing each vocab word, I gave my students to a greater extent than written phrases to interpret into algebra. After translating, students had to underline each term, highlight each coefficient, together with circle each constant.
And, a close-up:
