Become an expert at solving equations! Teachers & homeschooling guardians, you need these resources! Graphic organizers for common core math!

Do you want your students to become experts in solving one step equations? 


I have been teaching for over a decade, and I am especially noticing that now because of the pandemic of covid, students have fallen behind on a lot of basic math skills. 

Therefore, I decided to teach the topic of solving one step equations as follows:

Day 1: I taught how to solve one step addition and subtraction equations.


Day 2: I taught how to solve one step multiplication equations.
The only trouble that I saw students having in this lesson is remembering that a number attached to the variable such as 4x means to MULTIPLY. 

So, I took out some time to review that expressions such as 7y or 9m etc. mean to multiply. 
You may have to spend some time on this as it may be difficult for some students to get used to not seeing the multiplication symbol.

Day 3: I taught how to solve one step division equations. 
It took time for some students to get used to the fraction bar which means to divide.

Day 4: I went over how to solve one step equations with all 4 operations, addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

You may be able to skip to day 4 or maybe your students need you to slow down. You know your students best. 

CONCLUSION:

For each day that I taught solving equations, my students needed supports. Therefore, I created worksheets that I used which were unique because they provided visuals and supports which my students needed.

Subscribe to my YOUTUBE channel where I upload a video each week which is based on the worksheets and helps teachers see how to use the graphic organizers. The videos can be used in class or for students to help them with homework. They are unique videos which include the supports you need.  

Check out the video below from my channel which explains how to use the graphic organizers in the worksheets when solving equations.

  ARE YOUR STUDENTS STRUGGLING TO LEARN BASIC SKILLS IN ALGEBRA?  In middle school when students learn about coefficients, variables, and constants and need to learn how to combine like terms, they might not even understand what like terms are. I have been teaching for over a decade using common core standards. Especially with the pandemic causing my students to miss learning, I have noticed that my students are missing the required prerequisites needed. I am required to teach on grade level, yet my students need to feel confident in my math classes and need to master the skills. I have decided to break up the middle school algebra into simple lessons and build on them each day. DAY 1: First, I went over coefficients, variables, and constants. I then needed to teach combining like terms, but I knew that this skill would be overwhelming and difficult for my students if they did not know how to identify the like terms FIRST.  DAY 2: So, I spent a lesson reviewing how to ide...
