ABOUT
SENIOR PHASE: Introduction to Algebra (SPI)During this two hour hands-on session, you will get insights on how to use algebraic manipulatives to teach basic algebraic concepts. The manipulatives provide an opportunity also to explore more complex mathematical concepts while transitioning from the concrete stage to the abstract stage. Research has shown that learners remember algebra better when they are engaged in hands-on activities.
Using the proven CRA instructional approach (concrete-representative-abstract) SATeacher will also introduce you to many teaching ideas, ranging from traditional lessons to incorporating blended learning and eLearning into the classroom.
Who should attend?
- Mathematics Teachers (Grades 7-9) / HOD’s / Principals / Subject advisors
- Provincial and National subject advisors of Mathematics
- Parents with learners in Grades 7-9
- Everybody that is serious about teaching Mathematics

HOST
SATeacher has been empowering teachers to teach since 2003 through training and the provision of equipment and resources to support the South African Curriculum.To date SATeacher has developed and published 581 titles, trained over 30 000 educators from the most rural to the most sophisticated school environments across South Africa. The approach with both resource development and training sessions is always hands-on and practical, employing internationally researched techniques and methodology. The aim is to make a difference in the understanding of educational content by both teachers and their learners.
While Mathematics remains a key focus area, SATeacher has devolped Curriculum based material on a wide content spectrum on appointment by the Ministry of Education, the Robben Island Museum, the Paper Manufacturers Association of South Africa, Maropeng - Cradle of Humankind and many other organisations.
SATeacher supplies, installs, trains on and provide Curriculum based content for Interactive White Boards and distributes a huge range of their own and other educational resources from pencils through books and sound bars to laptop computers and eResources.
