Activate: - Talk about the new unit that we will be doing, how long, why it is very important. 5 mins
- Ask if students still remember how to solve equation from middle school. Give
one easy question for them to do on the board.

them as well as the types in general (true vs false equations).
-Inform students that there are different types of the equations and each has
different strategy to solve. Let them know that today we will be doing the one step
and two steps (simple equations).
-Inform students that even though we can get the answer of these equations by
just observe it (do it in our heads) but it is very important that we know the steps
mathematically to solve it.
-Introducing Double Clothes line strategy as one way to solve equations visually. Do
one question on the board using this new strategy.
-Do the same question using the usual method that they always been introduce in
the previous grade.
-Have students to do some more examples using the white board and teacher
correct/give feed back immediately as they show up their boards.
-Assign students for more problems from the worksheet and have them to solve
the equations.
-Teacher circulate. Address any question that seems difficult for the students and
do it as class.

-Inform students how they are doing, as well as what is going to be the next class.

Reflections Most of students seemed not keen with The Double Clothing line method as it takes more time,
but for a few students it was helpful because it gave him visual more than the traditional way of
solving the equation.

Reflections -By the end of this lesson, all type of the equations has been covered. However, as this is a
heavy unit that contain very important base for the next level of math course, teacher needs to
encourage students to be proactive, doing many practice questions and ask for help. Give them
mental support and state to them if they do not fully understand just yet, it is normal and it will
come with the practice. Teacher can also share her personal experience and relate to them for
additional support.
