Teaching with Algebra Tiles: Distribution and Factoring


Distribution and Factoring are essential algebraic skills needed when furthering one's study of mathematics and too often they are condensed into a set of procedural instructions. In this course we aim to offer pupils the opportunity not only to conceptualise these key ideas, but as the teacher, to think carefully about the links to other areas of mathematics.

Distribution

In this section, we will build upon our modelling of the 9th axiom in the introductory course and look closer at how we can effectively communicate distribution, in both, base 10 and base x. Within most of the tutorial videos, there will be opportunities to pause and try some practise questions, along with a practise worksheet at the end of the section.

Factoring

Again, building upon the idea of area in the first algebra tiles course, we will look closer at factoring and we can best communicate this idea. Within most of the tutorial videos, there will be opportunities to pause and try some practise questions, along with a practise worksheet at the end of the section.
