Algebra is just maths with mystery numbers — and your class are the detectives. A confidence-building first algebra lesson for Year 6, ages 10 to 11. The lesson covers: letters standing in for numbers and what algebra really is; function machines — following the rule in, change, out; balancing the scales to solve equations by keeping both sides equal; using substitution to crack the mystery numbers; and an algebra challenge to finish. Ready-to-teach PowerPoint, no prep.
