Quick introductory presentation about using algebraic manipulation to add algebraic fractions and solve complicated equations.

This is graded/levelled activity which goes through from collecting like terms to all the way to multiplying double brackets.Do leave a comment on what you think, how it went in your class, also any suggestions for improvement.

Maze consists of squares containing identities, some of which are false. Pupils can only pass through squares containing true identities. Identities require ability to expand & factorise quadratic expressions and simplify algebraic fractions, so really only good for a GCSE top set. Extension - pupils find identities of incorrect squares and then design their own maze (there's a good discussion to be had about how to make a good maze - including common misconceptions to fool people).

Students need to check all the statements, find any mistakes and fix them. Answers are included along with an explanation of the misconception. A nice activity for revision or consolidation.

Full lesson, including an introduction to negative numbers Simplify and manipulate algebraic expressions (including those involving surds) by: multiplying a single term over a bracket, taking out common factors, simplifying expressions involving sums Interpret algebraic manipulation, including: numbers written as fractions rather than as decimals brackets

PowerPoint Presentation on Algebraic Conventions (12 slides): Defines terms used in algebra (expression, equation, terms, co-efficient) and explains algebraic conventions. It has been written by a highly experienced teacher (of 25+ years), senior examiner and reviser for Maths and Stats examinations. It includes: Lesson objectives Step-by-step explanations of the subject matter Examples to aid understanding Questions to check understanding Answers to questions, with explanations Suggestions regarding which topic(s) should be moved on to next. It is 1 of a set of 8 PowerPoints on ‘Algebraic Manipulation’ that APT has published for GCSE (and Key Stage 3) Maths. The complete set of 8 PowerPoint Presentations (135 slides, excluding Title Pages) covers the following topics relating to ‘Algebraic Manipulation’: 01 Algebraic Conventions (12 slides): Defines terms used in algebra (expression, equation, terms, co-efficient) and explains algebraic conventions. 02 Collecting Like Terms (7 slides): Explains how to simplify expressions by collecting ‘like’ terms together. 03 Simplifying (11 slides): Reviews algebraic terminology and algebraic conventions and explains how to simplify expressions that involve multiplication and division. 04 Expanding Brackets (21 slides): Reviews BIDMAS and explains how to expand single-bracketed expressions, double-bracketed expressions, and (for higher tier only) triple-bracketed expressions. 05 Factorising (28 slides): Explains how to factorise linear and quadratic expressions. 06 Substitution (11 slides): Explains how to substitute numbers for letters into algebraic expressions and formulae, and then evaluate. 07 Rearranging Formulae (25 slides): Explains how to rearrange formulae (aka how to change the subject of a formula). 08 Identities and Proofs (20 slides): Explains the difference between an equation and an identity, and explains how to find counter-examples, and how to set out formal proofs.
