Multiplying 3 Binomials (A) WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
This worksheet is the ideal place for students to begin expanding three sets of parentheses.
In section A, learners will expand a pair of parentheses, one containing a quadratic expression and one linear, using the grid method/area model. All terms are positive and scaffolding decreases as the questions progress.
Then, learners will expand sets of three parentheses in section B. Section C introduces negative terms, and section E involves some problem solving including a spot, explain, and correct question.
Questions throughout the worksheet are carefully selected to give students opportunity spot patterns and deepen their knowledge, particularly considering the effect of negative terms.
