Solving Equations with the Do Undo Method
If you have students struggling to solve equations, try for a different approach. This strategy for one-variable equations was a game-changer for my students. This resource outlines tips and ideas for teaching students how to think about operations that happen to a variable and appropriately applying the inverses. Examples and practice sheets for order of operations (a necessary prerequisite) and multi-step equations are provided too. I hope this lesson will impact your students and add co
