(Using Algebraic Operations)
As an aspiring educator, you might be teaching the concepts from Weeks 2 and 3 to students.
This assignment will give you an opportunity to think about what that situation might look like as
you create a resource for a future teacher. The future teacher might be you or someone else.
Identify the ideas that would be important for your future self or another future teacher to
remember.
Choose 1 of the following formats to use for the resource you’re creating:
A 10- to 12-slide Microsoft PowerPoint presentation with speaker notes
Create your resource. In your resource:
Identify the topic(s) (Exploring the simulations, number line: Operations, Making sense
of making Zero, Practicing the Additive Inverse, Function Builder's, Looking for patterns
with Multiplicative Inverse, Expression Exchange, Discovering the Commutative Property
of Multiplication, Associative Property, Practicing the Distributive Property, Using
Properties of Real Numbers, Metacognition for Properties of Real Numbers, Building
Concepts for Algebraic Thinking (Numbers, Variables and Operations) Identity
Properties, Inverse Properties, Commutative Properties
From your perspective, develop the important student learning outcomes for the mathematical
concepts from Weeks 2 and 3.
Include any rules and definitions that are important for students to learn.
Definitions (Additive Inverse Any number, in the real set of numbers, combined with
its additive inverse makes the additive identity.
Additive Identity Any number, in the real set of numbers, combined with the additive.
identity, is itself. The additive identity is zero.
Multiplicative Inverse Any number, in the real set of numbers, multiplied by its
multiplicative inverse makes multiplicative identity.
Multiplicative Identity Any number, in the real set of numbers, multiplied by the
multiplicative identity, is itself. The multiplicative identity is one.
Commutative Property of Addition Any numbers, in the real set of numbers, can be added.
in any order and the sum will be the same.
Commutative Property of Multiplication Any numbers, in the real set of numbers, can be.
multiplied in any order and the product will be the same.
Associative Property of Addition Any numbers, in the real set of numbers, can be.
grouped in any order and the sum will be the same.
Associative Property of Multiplication Any numbers, in the real set of numbers, can be.
grouped in any order and the product will be the same.
Distributive Property For the set of real numbers, the operation of multiplication
distributes over the operation of addition.
Closure The set of real numbers is closed for addition and multiplication.)
