Simplify - Using Algebra Tiles WORKSHEET

Suitable for Grades: 6th Grade, 7th Grade
CCSS: 6.EE.A.3, 7.EE.A.1
CCSS Description: Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3 (2 + x) to produce the equivalent expression 6 + 3x; apply the distributive property to the expression 24x + 18y to produce the equivalent expression 6 (4x + 3y); apply properties of operations to y + y + y to produce the equivalent expression 3y.

Apply properties of operations as strategies to add, subtract, factor, and expand linear expressions with rational coefficients.

Simplify - Using Algebra Tiles WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

Algebra tiles are a powerful visual tool used to help students understand the concepts of expanding and simplifying algebraic expressions in an interactive and engaging way. This worksheet will help build learners’ confidence in simplifying expressions that involve multiplying a single term over a bracket.
Each of the four sections begins with an example which is followed by 5 minimally different questions.
In section A, All terms are positive. Negatives are introduced in section B. Next, students will simplify expressions involving two single brackets such as 2(4x + 1) + 3(2x + 4) in sections C and D. Negative terms are introduced once again in section D.
