Lesson: Simplifying Expressions: Combining Like Terms Mathematics • 6th Grade

In this lesson, we will learn how to simplify polynomial expressions by adding and subtracting like terms.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

understand that like terms have the same variables and the same exponents on each of the variables,
understand that like terms can be combined using addition and subtraction to reduce the number of terms in a polynomial,
simplify polynomial expressions by adding and subtracting like terms,
solve geometric problems that involve the simplification of like terms.
