About

The module is based on the strategy which can be adopted in classroom settings to provide the teacher with a viable solution to some aspect of teaching algebra. Often in class teachers find that the students are not able to understand the algebraic terms and their association with real life. The strategy mentioned in the module focuses on the goals of learning of students in upper primary stages, therefore, uses the means of linking algebraic terms to a real-life context and hence can be utilized as a means of teaching instructions for the learning of algebra. The strategy discussed has a four-stage process focused at providing a guide for the teacher to transform their content knowledge into pedagogical content knowledge, aiming and enabling teachers to provide an effective and joyful learning experience to their students.
