    PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI

    PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI learning intentions:

    • We are PLANNING... so that we can... apply the algebraic concepts of like terms and indices to solve simple one-step or two-step equations.
    • We are PLANNING... so that we can... apply the algebraic concepts of like terms and indices to systematically solve more complex multi-step equations.


    Success Criteria:     I can/have...

    • find the value of a variable by accurately and confidently solving the one-step equation
    • find the value of a variable by accurately and confidently solving the two-step equation
    • find the value of a variable by accurately and confidently solving the multi-step equation
    • expand algebraic expressions or terms using the correct indices and exponential power
    • factorise algebraic expressions or terms using the correct indices, exponential power, and brackets
