Algebra Basics all 5 books

The importance of appreciating algebra 

Learning the basics of algebra is importantly viewed as a gatekeeper topic to learn higher-level mathematics at the secondary phase of the pupils’ learning journey. It is the key to opening the doors for pupils interested in pursuing careers in science, engineering and technology. The tasks in these workbooks can help because algebra is an important life skill worth understanding well. Moreover, learning algebra helps to develop your critical thinking skills. For example, problem solving, logic, patterns, and reasoning.

The advantage of using Alphareach Algebra Basics workbooks

Algebra Basics all 5 books from Alphareach introduces and gradually reinforces key words, terms, notation and conventions used in algebra. There are lots of examples all set out clearly, and by working through the entire series, pupils are provided an opportunity to develop the ability to reason mathematically, a skill necessary if they wish to excel at higher level maths, science or engineering subjects.

The workbooks facilitate opportunities for pupils to appreciate algebra by working through the guided examples conjecturing relationships and generalising from specific to specialising from general examples.

The mathematical tasks in these workbooks are based on the variation theory. The tasks are set in a variety of contexts, with multiple representations. As a result, this enables the pupils to deepen their understanding of algebraic concepts. Also, it will help to develop techniques to solve algebraic problems.

Firstly, the activities aim to empower pupils to use their natural powers of  imagination. Secondly, engage them to reason mathematically. Thirdly, allow them to make sense of their experiences.
