US Grade 6 - 8
What will be taught?
Students will learn how to solve two-step equations using both visual models and traditional mathematical methods. They'll gain a clear understanding of how to isolate the variable and check their solutions.

What topics will you cover?

Understanding and identifying two-step equations
Using bar models and algebra tiles to represent equations
Solving equations using inverse operations
Word problems involving two-step equations
Checking solutions for accuracy
How is your class structured?
The class will begin with a quick warm-up to activate prior knowledge, followed by a mini-lesson using slides and examples. Students will then work through guided practice problems with support, and finish with independent practice or a collaborative game.

How will you teach?
I use a mix of direct instruction, visual modeling, and interactive activities. I break down each step clearly and give students time to ask questions and try it themselves.

What's your teaching style?
My teaching style is supportive, upbeat, and student-centered. I believe in building confidence through small wins, clear explanations, and plenty of encouragement.

How much will learners get to interact with you?
Students will interact with me throughout the class—asking questions during the mini-lesson, solving problems together, and getting feedback during practice. We’ll use interactive slides, guided discussions, and math games to keep learning fun and engaging.

Learning Goals

By the end of the class, students will be able to:
Identify and solve two-step equations using inverse operations.
By the end of the class, students will be able to: Represent two-step equations using visual models such as bar models or algebra tiles.
