Algebraic expressions are mathematical phrases that contain numbers, variables, and operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. They are used to represent calculations or describe relationships in mathematics.

Level of work: GCSE level 3 - 5 Duration: 2 - 3 lessons Learning objectives: Simplify and
manipulate algebraic expressions by collecting like terms, multiplying a single term over a bracket (expanding brackets) and taking out common factors (factorising).
Forming
simple algebraic expressions using pictures and words - used to introduce the concept of algebra to a low ability year 7 class after I had used bags of skittles and individual skittles to explain why we need to use letters.
(c)
Forming algebraic expressions from potentially worded information, particularly appreciating it as the first step in solving equations (the latter which isn't covered till the «Equations» topic).

Writing
Algebraic Expressions Task Cards and Recording Sheets 40 task cards to give your students practice in «writing expressions that record operations with numbers and with letters standing for numbers».
With these activities, students solve problems by analyzing patterns and relationships, learn
about algebraic expressions, find common factors and multiples (GCF and LCM), work with primes and composites, discover perfect, deficient, and abundant numbers and much more.
The right hand column requires the pupil to have a go at writing a simplified
algebraic expression based on the pattern in the left column.
It includes: + a starter looking at
simplfying algebraic expressions + learning objectives + key words + plenty of examples with excellent teaching slides + questions with answers + and a simple plenary.
Children must use substitution to solve a
range algebraic expressions which include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, square numbers, square roots, cubed numbers and brackets.

Their enthusiastic first - year teacher had used the Common Core standards to guide what he'd taught the students all year, but the content of the sample exam, which required dragging and
dropping algebraic expressions into boxes and filling in blank boxes with equations, was proving challenging.
The book addresses monomials and polynomials;
factoring algebraic expressions; how to handle algebraic fractions; exponents, roots, and radicals; linear and fractional equations; functions and graphs; quadratic equations; inequalities; ratio, proportion, and variation; how to solve word problems, and more.
Instead to create a detailed narrative based on some physics of the properties of CO2 and applying the analogy of a greenhouse, with the assumption that the climate system is simple enough to be characterised by simple linear
algebraic expressions ignoring the possibility of chaos and nonlinearity.
Elementary Algebra Section — This section consists
