Kara, Melike; Eames, Cheryl L.; Miller, Amanda L.; Chieu, Annie – Mathematics Teacher, 2015
The very nature of algebra concerns the generalization of patterns (Lee 1996). Patterning activities that are geometric in nature can serve as powerful contexts that engage students in algebraic thinking and visually support them in constructing a variety of generalizations and justifications (e.g., Healy and Hoyles 1999; Lannin 2005). In this…

Poetzel, Adam; Muskin, Joseph; Munroe, Anne; Russell, Craig – Mathematics Teacher, 2012
Imagine high school students glued to computer screens--not playing video games but applying their mathematical knowledge of functions to the design of three-dimensional sculptures. Imagine these students engaging in rich discourse as they transform functions of their choosing to design unique creations. Now, imagine these students using…

Morelli, Lynn – Mathematics Teacher, 1992
Presents activities to visually explore the algebraic concepts of variable, constant, the distributive property, and combining like terms. Presents four transparencies that use visual models to understand exercises in students perform the same mental calculations on a number of their choice and obtain the same result. (MDH)
