The use of algebra tiles in the classroom promotes a hands-on, active approach to learning algebraic concepts. By physically manipulating these tiles, students can develop a more intuitive understanding of algebraic concepts. In this professional development session, educators can explore the potential impact of incorporating algebra tiles into their instructional strategies. Rather than relying solely on passive memorization of rules, the tiles encourage students to actively engage with the problem-solving process to foster a deeper comprehension of algebraic reasoning. Moving students through a progression of concrete, visual, and abstract experiences can cultivate a more comprehensive and enduring grasp of algebraic concepts, ultimately elevating student learning outcomes. This gradual shift from tangible representations to visual models and eventually abstract reasoning empowers learners to develop a deeper, more flexible understanding of algebraic principles.
