Introduction: The lesson will focus on the topic of algebraic expressions. The aim of the lesson is to help students understand the concept of algebraic expressions and how to simplify them. The lesson will be interactive and engaging, with a focus on problem-solving and critical thinking.

Lesson Outline: 1. Introduction to algebraic expressions 2. Understanding variables and constants 3. Simplifying algebraic expressions 4. Solving problems using algebraic expressions

Questioning: 1. What is an algebraic expression? 2. What is the difference between a variable and a constant? 3. How do you simplify an algebraic expression? 4. How can algebraic expressions be used to solve problems?

Assessment: 1. Formative assessment: Students will be given a worksheet to complete during the lesson to assess their understanding of the topic. 2. Summative assessment: Students will be given a quiz at the end of the lesson to assess their understanding of the topic.

Differentiation: 1. Visual aids: Visual aids such as diagrams and charts will be used to help students understand the concept of algebraic expressions. 2. Group work: Students will be divided into groups to work on problems together, allowing for peer-to-peer learning and collaboration. 3. Extension activities: Students who finish early will be given extension activities to challenge them and further their understanding of the topic.

Plenary: The lesson will end with a plenary session where students will be asked to reflect on what they have learned and how they can apply it in real-life situations.
