Why Algebra is good... |
|
| It involves: | |
| Logic, | Selecting the best tool to solve a problem, |
| Being Systematic, | Being careful and accurate, |
| Problem Solving, | Organising your working, |
| Reasoning, | Reasoning, |
| Thinking skills, | Working in a step-by-step way. |
| All very useful skills to develop | |
