Description: Hands-On Algebra! by Frances McBroom Thompson For grades 7-12 teachers, here's a vast collection of 159 ready-to-use games and activities to make algebra meaningful and fun for kids of all ability levels!Throurgh a unique three-step approach, students gain mastery over algebra concepts and skills one activity at a time: Activity 1 offers physical models (using available materials) and easy-to-follow instructions to help learners seek patterns. Activity 2 uses pictorial models like diagrams, tables, and graphs to further help students retain and test what they have learned. Activity 3 encourages exploration and application of newly learned concepts and skills through cooperative games, puzzles, problems, and graphic calculator or computer activities.For quick access and easy use, all materials are organized into five major sections and printed in a big 8 1/4" x 11" lay-flat binding for easy photocopying. Following is just a small sample of the many activities featured in each section:1. REAL NUMBERS, THEIR OPERATIONS, AND THEIR PROPERTIES: Array Build-Up (Multiplication)...Splitting Things Apart (Applying Distributive Property)...No Sign Posts! (Ordering Operations)...Rectangle Mangle (Applying Absolute Value)2. LINEAR FORMS: Make-and-Replace (Evaluating Algebraic Expressions)...A Whole in One! (Linear Equations Involving Fractions)...Switching Tracks (Solving aX + b = cX + d)3. LINEAR APPLICATIONS AND GRAPHING: How Much Additional Fencing? (Modeling Linear Relationships)...Mix It Up! (Ratio & Proportion)...Graphing Capers (Solving for Y in terms of X)4. QUADRATIC CONCEPTS: Factor Draw (Factoring Second-Degree Polynomials)...Sliding Curves (Exploring Quadratic Functions)...Squaring with Tiles (Solvingby Completing the Square)5. SPECIAL APPLICATIONS: Great Divide (Transforming Linear Inequalities)...Which Sum Works? (Pythagorean Theorem)...Growth Patterns (Exponential Functions)You'll find each activity has complete teacher directions, materials needed, and helpful examples for discussion, homework, and quizzes.
