Description
Dice Activities for Algebra
In this introduction to algebraic concepts, students aged 10-13 years explore the idea of algebra as a ‘balancing act’ using dice and coloured tiles.
When given the opportunity to ‘play’ with big mathematical ideas, students naturally acquire the algebra basics:
- using symbols to denote mathematical functions;
- using a variable (n) to represent an unknown; and
- writing and solving simultaneous equations.
Dice activities for algebra is intended to:
- construct a bridge for students to transition from thinking arithmetically to thinking algebraically
- assist students in the use of letters to represent unknowns and variables
- apply deductive and inductive reasoning in solving for n
- generate rules to describe number patterns
- increase and deepen an understanding of equivalency
