In the middle grades, students learn to generalize their prior experiences with computation and develop more abstract mathematical thinking. Expressions, equations, and functions are tools that are used to describe real-world situations mathematically. Introducing these ideas in concrete ways will provide meaningful learning experiences that can connect to their existing knowledge.
