Students collaborate on solving two-step equations at Coal City Middle School

Seventh-grade math students at Coal City Middle School are engaging in lessons on solving two-step equations. They apply the order of operations and integer rules, working collaboratively in groups to tackle these mathematical problems and relate them to real-world scenarios.

"The students did a great job helping each other by talking about the steps they used to solve each expression. If they didn’t get the same answer, they worked through their differences," stated teacher Andrea Roseland.

As the year progresses, students will further develop their skills by learning to solve two-step equations involving decimals and fractions. These lessons aim to enhance their algebraic abilities meaningfully.
