Big Idea:
Connect solving systems of equations to real life baseball helmets and reading tables to find the equations for solving by substitution.
Big Idea:
Students will understand that a linear equation can be created in order to find an unknown value in a real world situation.
Big Idea:
Paul Pierce made 14 more points than Kevin Garnett. Let k represent Kevin Garnett’s points. Write an expression to show how many points Pierce made. If Pierce made 26 points, how many points did Garnett make? Students work on writing and solving equat
Big Idea:
Students create equations and inequalities to model and solve everyday situations!
Big Idea:
Children will learn the term variable and then work to "attack" a problem using what they know about the relationship between multiplication and division to solve for an unknown.
