Over the next few weeks in maths we will learn a range of algebra skills and practise each.

Some of you will have done work on these topics before and may wish to move ahead more quickly – you can contact me if your work is proving too easy.

Email stephen.digan@craiglockhart.edin.sch.uk with any questions about your work.

LI – To be able to identify and collect like terms (simplifying expressions).

This skill is all about creating the simplest form of a statement, like a maths sentence.

The first two videos below give thorough explanations, examples and some practice questions at the end of each which you can pause to attempt and then

check the answers just a few seconds later in the video.

The third video just gives a quicker rundown on the skills.

If you feel confident, try the sheets below. Each one covers a specific type of simplifying expressions and they get progressively more complex. There are

many pages but each question is very short to complete.
