Instruction
Framing The Session
Use virtual manipulatives to visualize patterns in linear
relationships.
Explore various uses for virtual manipulatives.
Teaching
We will open up the
National Library of
Virtual Manipulatives
• Click on “Algebra
6-8.”
• Click on
“Polyominoes.”
• Click on the
“Clone” tile.
• Drag the tiles into
the Z-shape
pattern.
