Algebra Tiles
Algebra tiles can be used to model operations involving integers. Let the small yellow square represent +1 and the small red square (the flip-
side) represent -1. Let the green rectangle represent X and the red rectangle (the flip-side
represent –X Let the blue square represent X2 and the red square (the flip-side represent --
-X2

1. (+3) + (+1) =
2. (-2) + (-1) =
3. (+3) + (-1) =
4. (+4) + (-4) = After students have seen many examples of addition, have them formulate rules.
Addition of Integers
Addition can be viewed as “combining”. Combining involves the forming and removing of all
zero pairs. For each of the given examples, use algebra tiles to
model the addition. Draw pictorial diagrams which show the modeling.
![Page 19: Differentiating Math Instruction Using a Variety of … · 1 Differentiating Math Instruction Using a Variety of Instructional Strategies, Manipulatives and the Graphing Calculator](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020315/5ad05c047f8b9ad24f8d8e6e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

1. (+5) – (+2) =
2. (-4) – (-3) =
3. (+3) – (-5) =
4. (-4) – (+1) =
5. (+3) – (-3) =
After students have seen many examples, have them formulate rules for integer subtraction.
Subtraction of Integers
Subtraction can be interpreted as “take-away.” Subtraction can also be thought of as “adding the
opposite.” For each of the given examples, use algebra tiles to
model the subtraction. Draw pictorial diagrams which show the modeling
process.

The counter indicates how many rows to make. It has this meaning if it is positive.
1. (+2)(+3) = 2. (+3)(-4) =
If the counter is negative it will mean “take the opposite of.” (flip-over)
1. (-2)(+3) =
2. (-3)(-1) =
Multiplication of Integers
Integer multiplication builds on whole number multiplication. Use concept that the multiplier serves as the “counter” of sets needed. For the given examples, use the algebra tiles to model the multiplication. Identify the multiplier or counter. Draw pictorial diagrams which model the multiplication process.

1. (+6)/(+2) =
2. (-8)/(+2) =
A negative divisor will mean “take the opposite of.” (flip-over)
1. (+10)/(-2) =
2. (-12)/(-3) =
Division of Integers
Like multiplication, division relies on the concept of a counter.
Divisor serves as counter since it indicates the number of rows to create.
For the given examples, use algebra tiles to model the division. Identify the divisor or counter. Draw pictorial diagrams which model the process.

1. X + 2 = 3
2. 2X – 4 = 8
3. 2X + 3 = X – 5
Solving Equations
Algebra tiles can be used to explain and justify the equation solving process. The development of the equation solving model is based on two ideas. Variables can be isolated by using zero pairs. Equations are unchanged if equivalent amounts are added to each side of the equation.

1. 3(X + 2) =
2. 3(X – 4) =
3. -2(X + 2) =
4. -3(X – 2) =
Distributive Property
Use the same concept that was applied with multiplication of integers, think of the first factor as the counter.
The same rules apply. 3(X+2)
Three is the counter, so we need three rows of (X+2)

1. 2x + 3
2. 4x – 2
3. 2x + 4 + x + 2 =
4. -3x + 1 + x + 3 =
Modeling Polynomials
Algebra tiles can be used to model expressions. Aid in the simplification of expressions. Add, subtract, multiply, divide, or factor polynomials.

Multiplying Polynomials
1. (x + 2)(x + 3)
2. (x – 1)(x +4)
3. (x + 2)(x – 3)
4. (x – 2)(x – 3)

1. 3x + 3
2. 2x – 6
3. x2 + 6x + 8
4. x2 – 5x + 6
Factoring Polynomials
Algebra tiles can be used to factor polynomials. Use tiles and the frame to represent the problem.
Use the tiles to fill in the array so as to form a rectangle inside the frame.
Be prepared to use zero pairs to fill in the array. Draw a picture.

1. x2 + 7x +6 x + 1 2. 2x2 + 5x – 3 x + 3 3. x2 – x – 2 x – 2 “Polynomials are unlike the other “numbers” students learn how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide. They are not “counting” numbers. Giving polynomials a concrete reference (tiles) makes them real.”
Dividing Polynomials
Algebra tiles can be used to divide polynomials. Use tiles and frame to represent problem. Dividend
should form array inside frame. Divisor will form one of the dimensions (one side) of the frame.
Be prepared to use zero pairs in the dividend.
