Algebra In Action
This Teachers TV video is suitable for use as a Key Stage Two mathematics lesson starter on algebra. It uses a story of a cold apple seller who cannot afford to buy a scarf. The apple seller manages to exchange some apples for a scarf. The scarf seller then exchanges some of her scarves for a coat. The story finishes by asking students to work out the formula for how many apples will be needed to buy a coat.
