These materials open the door for students to visualize and explore polynomial expressions, factoring, and more complex relationships between variables in a concrete, meaningful way.\r\n\r\nWith these tiles, they are able to model expressions, combine like terms, and work through multi-step equations in a way that feels accessible and hands-on. I've already seen students who usually hesitate during math build and solve problems with their tiles. The extended pieces, especially, allow our algebra students to push their thinking further and truly see how variables interact beyond simple linear expressions.\r\n\r\nThank you again, we are so grateful.","fullyFundedDate":1761590872963,"projectUrl":"project/extended-algebraic-tile-sets/9813627/","projectTitle":"Extended Algebraic Tile Sets","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Julie Dobrinska","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp6752561_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1753114256740","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/6752561"},{"teacherId":6752561,"projectId":9749040,"letterContent":"Thank you for your generous donation to this project.
