Teaching notes

Make correction part of the practice

Common mistakes to watch for

  • undoing multiplication before addition
  • changing a sign while moving a term

Useful teaching moves

  1. 1

    Keep operations on the same side and use balance language instead of moving terms.

  2. 2

    Review one worked example together, then let the learner complete a short independent set.
