You’re Not Too Young for Algebra!
The End
A.5.2.2 Students will express mathematical relationships using equalities.
Students will match equivalent sums.
Students will use a balance to write
equivalent sums.
Students will identify missing addends in equivalent equations.
Hi! I’m an equal sign.
Many people think that when they see me they are supposed to find the answer to an equation.
3 + 4 = _7_
An equal sign really means “is the same as.” When you see an equal sign, both sides of the equation must be equal.
3 + 4 = 5 + 2
3 + 4 = 5 + 2

A number balance can demonstrate the properties of the equal sign.
Click the blue oval.
When you are finished, close
the website.

Now you can practice using a balance to build equivalent sums or you can choose to
play a game.

Let’s play a Game
Have fun.
9 + 6 = 15
9 + 6 = 15
4 + 5 = 9
6 + 6 = 126 + 6 = 12
9 + 6 = 15
4 + 5 = 9
6 + 6 = 12
6+ 5 =11
Do you know your equivalent sums?
6 + 3 = 9
7 + 8 =15 7+ 7 = 144 + 6 = 10
2 + 6 = 8
10 + 6 = 16
9 + 4 = 13 6 + 6 = 12
4+ 5 = 9
9 + 6 =15
7 + 9 = 16
3 + 8 = 11
6 + 8 = 14
7 + 10 =17
7 + 5 = 12 5 + 5 = 10
4 + 4 = 8

I hope you matched all
the pairs correctly!
Let’s try using a balance to build equivalent sums.
The instructions are on the next slide.
Close the site when you are done.
1.Move and scroll the screen so you can see all of the balance.
2. Click the red pan. Click buttons to type a sum.
3. Click the blue pan. Click buttons to type an equivalent sum.
4. Reset the balance for a new set of equivalent sums.
Click the balance!
