Use area models and algebra tiles to explore the distributive property, expand brackets, identify common misconceptions and solve randomised algebra challenges.
A guided algebra activity where students identify variables, constants, terms and coefficients, sort like and unlike terms, and simplify expressions by collecting like…
A guided balance-scale investigation for solving one-step and two-step linear equations using inverse operations, with symbolic and graphical representations.
A randomised 10-question challenge where students calculate area for triangles, parallelograms, trapeziums, rhombuses, kites and composite shapes, with new numbers each…
A guided Year 8 investigation where students derive area formulas by rearranging parallelograms, duplicating trapeziums, using diagonals for rhombuses and kites, and…
Predict how many small squares fit in a larger one and fill it row by row, practise conversions on a km² → mm² ladder, and compare real objects with 1 m², 1 ha and 1 km².
Exponential & Logarithmic Active Lab is one of the licensed interactives in The Education Universe. This page describes it; teachers use it in lessons and classes with a licence or the free trial.
