Learning Algebra • All students should learn algebra beginning in pre-kindergarten “By viewing algebra as a strand in the curriculum from pre-kindergarten on, teachers can help students build a solid foundation of understanding and experiences as preparation for more sophisticated work in algebra in the middle grades and high school.” NCTM, 2000 • Primary algebra should not be a watered-down version of the standard high school course that most of us took; instead the goal in Grades K - 2 is to develop students’ understanding for the order and situations, predict beyond the information at hand, and make generalizations. from Lessons for Algebraic Thinking Grades K- 2 by von Rotz and Burns
Algebra Experience? • Students in Grades K - 2have knowledge about and are developing comfort with number patterns • Patterns provide a useful foundation on which teachers can develop students’ algebraic thinking • Students need experience creating, recognizing, and extending patterns • Relating to items in which they are familiar with • This foundational skill leads to the conceptual understanding of functions in future years. from Lessons for Algebraic Thinking Grades K- 2by von Rotzand Burns
Connecting to CCLS Looking at your Grade Level CCLS, identify and list which standards connect to foundational skills within algebra. On Chart Paper, make a grade level list.

Bar Modeling – Key Points • When building proficiency in tape diagraming skills start with simple accessible situations and add complexities one at a time. • Develop habits of mind in students to reflect on the size of bars relative to one another. • Part-whole models are more helpful when modeling situations where you are given information relative to a whole. • Compare to models are best when comparing quantities.
Writing Word Problems with Tape Diagrams • Tape diagrams are well suited for problems that provide information relative to the whole or comparative information of two or more quantities. • Visual fraction models includes: tape diagrams, number line diagrams, and area models. • When designing a word problem that is well supported by a tape diagram, sketch the diagram for the problem before or as your write the problem itself.
Key Points – Tape Diagrams • Use of tape diagrams, as described in the progressions documents provides visualization of relationships between quantities thereby promoting conceptual understanding, provides coherence through standards from Grade 1 through Grade 7, and supports standards for mathematical practice. • Proficiency in the tape diagram method can be developed in students and teachers new to the process through a natural development of problems and representations. • Content knowledge directed by the standards and the progressions is required to provide coherent and balanced instruction.
