This week in math I learned about area models. I really liked area models because I found them the simplest and gave me the right answer. With an area table you take an equation with two terms and create a 2×2 box, you take each part of the equation for a side and put a term above each box. Then you fill the box in like a multiplication table. Next you combine any like terms and write your simplified equation. The area model helped me as it was visual and very organized, this helped me to see what I was doing and feel more confident in my answer.
