How I have used guided notes in my Algebra 1 class:
⭐️ Whole class: You can complete the multiplying polynomials notes as a whole class lesson. This gives you the opportunity to have students work on example problems independently and check their work with you.
⭐️ Small groups: The students can work in pairs or small groups to complete the polynomial expressions worksheet. They can also work with a partner to complete the guided example problems and check their work as a whole class.
⭐️ Independent: Students can use the practice worksheets as classwork, homework, or quiz review.
