Lesson Activities by Day

Date	Phase 1: Starter (7 mins) Preparing the brain	Phase 2: Main (20 mins) New learning + assessment	Resources	Phase 3: Plenary (6 mins) Reflection + exercise
Mon 27 Apr 2026	1Recall what variables and algebraic expressions are by identifying them in familiar Ghanaian market situations 2Show learners 3 written phrases: 'Ama bought m packs of waakye at GH₵8 each', 'The total cost is 8m', and 'Kofi has 5 more than Yaw's n mangoes.' Ask: Which parts are numbers, which are letters, and what might the letters mean?	WRITING ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSIONS FROM WORD PROBLEMS 1Write this word problem on the board using your ruler and graph board: 'Yakubu sells chichinga at his chop bar. He sells c portions each day and makes GH₵12 profit per portion. Write an expression for his daily profit.' Model the answer step by step: identify the numbers (12), identify the variable (c), write 12c. Learners copy into their exercise books and explain to their partner what each symbol means 2Give learners 4 word problems from the textbook (page reference from Teachers Resource Pack): (1) 'Sena has s oranges. She gives away 7. Write the expression for how many she has left.' (2) 'A rectangle has length 6 and width w. Write the expression for its perimeter.' (3) 'Divide 24 cedi equally among p people. Write the expression.' (4) 'Three times the sum of 9 and d.' Learners work in pairs using their exercise books to write each expression, then a volunteer from each successful pair comes to the board to write one answer 3Struggling learners: provide only problems (1) and (2) with number clues highlighted in the textbook. Fast finishers: create their own market scenario (e.g., yam seller at Makola Market) and write two expressions with different operations.	1Textbook 2Exercise book 3Calculator 4Ruler and graph board	1Learners stand up and form a line by complexity: simplest expression they wrote today on one end, most complex on the other. Ask: Why did you choose that order? 2Call on a learner who struggled in the starter to read one of their written expressions aloud. Class gives a thumbs-up if correct Exercise 1Write this question in their exercise books: 'Adwoa buys n pens at GH₵2.50 each and 3 notebooks at GH₵1.50 each. Write the total algebraic expression for her spending. If n = 8, how much does she spend in total?' Learners must show both the expression and the final answer using a calculator if needed
