The teaching sequences are conceived to address specific learning difficulty, within an inclusive perspective.
we suggest to follow with the all class the sequence of activities named “Equivalent expressions”
(https://teacher.desmos.com/activitybuilder/custom/59f7841393b6de0d8bb27917?lang=it&collections=5d9d12cd9bb4713ab3b0d267)
In this sequence of activities, students sort cards to strengthen their understanding of equivalent expressions. In particular, this activity uses visual representations of algebraic expressions to help students see that expressions are equivalent when they correctly count the same thing. Moreover, this activity supports students in transcoding processes between figural and symbolic codes

The intervention tool is aimed at Memorizing of Algebraic rules of distributive property of binary operations.
