Algebra Activities for Children from 2nd to 7th grades
At low levels, kids are taught elementary algebra which differs from the very abstract form of algebra that is done by professionals within the domain. Most kids wonder how useful algebra is while others simply hate the topic or shy away from it. It is not uncommon to see kids turned off by math problems which tend to contain letters like finding ‘x’ or ‘y’ in equations. A typical example of such problems is when kids are asked to solve for ‘x’ in an equation like 3 + x = 7. Such an equation is simply saying if you add 3 to an unknown number the answer is 7, what number is it. Algebra is useful in everyday life and children should be taught to understand that when telling time, shopping for goods, spending time with friends etc, they are thinking in algebraic terms.
A good introduction to algebra is important else kids will tend to mystify this rather interesting part of mathematics. Kids as early as 1st grade, start solving algebra problems even before realizing it. It is therefore important for teachers to approach the concept with some subtlety.
