    FOCUS / ARONGA

    FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

    • We are FOCUSING on algebraic indices so we can transform multiple algebraic expressions (as in multiplication, division, or exponential power) into a simplified term.
    • We are FOCUSING on algebraic expansion so we can develop the skill and confidence in this.


    Learning Intentions: We are learning to (WALT)...

    • simplify algebraic indices that involve multiplication, division, or in brackets (exponential powers) 
    • expand algebraic expressions with a multiple and a bracket with 2 terms
    • continue to build and/or strengthen basic facts recall and number knowledge that involved 2-digit numbers as well as decimals.


    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • multiply or divide algebraic indices correctly and confidently
    • expand a single bracket (two terms) with a multiple
    • develop or maintain confidence with addition/subtraction of algebraic like terms
    • show consistent progress or maintain the ability of basic facts' accuracy and speed of recall
