A complete formative lesson with embedded slideshow, mini-lecture screencasts, checks for understanding, practice items, mixed review, and reflection. I create these assignments to supplement each lesson of Pearson's Common Core Edition Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Geometry courses. See also mathquest.net and twitter.com/mathquestEDU.

Problem 4 Got It? Reasoning: Is the statement true or false? If it is false, give a counterexample. If true, use properties of real numbers to show the expressions are equivalent.
For all real numbers j and k, j⋅k = (k + 0) ⋅ j.
Problem 4 Got It? Reasoning: Is the statement true or false? If it is false, give a counterexample. If true, use properties of real numbers to show the expressions are equivalent.
For all real numbers m and n, m(n + 1) = mn + 1.




Vocabulary: Are the expressions equivalent? 5x + 1 and 1 + 5x
Vocabulary: Are the expressions equivalent? 1 + (2t +1) and 2 + 2t
Justify: The expression below is simplified, step-by-step, on the right.
Use a property from the left to justify each step.
Associative property (of multiplication)
Distributive property
Commutative property (of multiplication)
Multiply
Sorting: Order the numbers from least to greatest (least on top, greatest on bottom).
Arithmetic: Find the sum.
Write only a number, in simplest form.
Arithmetic: Find the difference.
Write only a number, in simplest form.
Vocabulary Review: Classify the expressions on the left.
