Introduction to linear equations and some examples to use: Simplify these expressions: a. 3// a // + 2 // b // + 2 // a // – // b // b. 4// x // + 7 + 3 // x // – 3 – // x // c. 3(// x // + 5) d. 12 – (// n // – 3) e. // m // ( // n // – p) f. 4(// a // + 2 // b // ) – 2(2 // a // + // b // )

Great game to enhance basic linear equation knowledge - Postman deliveries

Another fun game very good for practising combining like terms - Game

Expressing problems as equations (very basic) interactive activity Another website on how to create algebraic equations from word problems - @http://www.algebrahelp.com/lessons/wordproblems/basics/index.htm

Introduction to combining like terms (does get a little hard quite quickly - including powers etc - but worth a look) - @http://www.algebrahelp.com/lessons/simplifying/combiningliketerms/index.htm
