Utajifunza

  • Evaluate expressions using brackets and the conventional order of operations.
  • Find the unknown in equations such as 3 × □ = 24 or □ + 17 = 40, explaining the method with inverse operations.
  • Describe input–output rules in words and with expressions such as 2 × n + 1, and complete tables from a rule.

Fasili

  • An expression is a combination of numbers and operations, possibly with brackets, that names a number.
  • An equation states that two expressions have the same value.
  • An unknown is a number, shown by a box or a letter, whose value we are asked to find.

Nadharia

  • Brackets group operations; without them, multiplication and division are carried out before addition and subtraction.
  • Adding a number is undone by subtracting it, and multiplying by a non-zero number is undone by dividing by it.

Mawazo potofu ya kawaida

  • Working strictly left to right, so that 2 + 3 × 4 is taken to be 20.
  • Thinking an equation must have 'the answer' on the right of the equals sign.
  • Believing a letter stands for an object ('a for apples') rather than for a number.
