Wait, what? Using Algebra tiles in HS? Is that a thing? How does it work, and why should I try it?
Description
In this session, teachers will have a chance to explore the use of algebra tiles and learn how they can be used at the high school level. Participants will be actively engaged in a series of student-centered problems using algebra tiles to show operations on polynomials, algebraic multiplication, factoring, and completing the square. While using the tiles, teachers will learn how to help students transition from the concrete (manipulative) to the abstract (paper and pencil).
