Unit Name:
Objectives:
Integers, Algebraic and mathematical expressions.
Demonstrating Patterns Using Multiple Representations
Students will be able to show that they can solve problems using
integers and that they can translate algebraic and verbal expressions,
given information relevant to finding the solution.
ALGI.1D: Represent relationships among quantities by using and
building concrete models, completing tables, constructing graphs or
diagrams, writing verbal descriptions, and writing equations and
inequalities.
ALGI.1A: Use manipulatives, drawings, verbal descriptions, and
symbols to represent unknowns and variables in real-world
situations.
