Thank you for your interest in Transition to Algebra!

Transition to Algebra is designed to build students' algebraic habits of mind and key mathematical ways of thinking. Students will explore algebraic logic puzzles that connect to and extend algebra course topics. They will learn broadly applicable tools and strategies to help them make sense of what they are learning about in algebra. TTA asks students to discuss and refine their ideas as they work through mental mathematics activities, written puzzles, spoken dialogues, and hands-on explorations that engage them in cultivating mathematical knowledge, intuition, and skills.
