ALGEBRA TILES: GETTING STARTED Introduction


Algebra tiles consist of 3 different size tiles. One size of the tile is coloured and the reverse is red. The red sides are the additive inverses for their pieces; we can think of them as representing their negative values.


Constant Variable = 1 = -1 ( = x Variable squared = x² + = 0) = -x (It is not possible to arrange the 1 tiles to create the x tile.) = -x²


(These squares have side length x)


Pupils need to understand that pairing the + side and – side of tile results in zero. They need plenty of practise with the tiles to get the idea of this.


Starting Activities: Algebraic Substitution E.g. 1: Find 3x + 1 if x = 2 STEP 1:Model the expression 3x + 1 with the tiles
