Plan of the lesson:
| Plan of division of class | Time | Contents | Notes |
| Introduction to the lesson (frontal method of education with dialogue with pupils) | 5 minutes | At the beginning the teacher describes the course of the lesson and puts a quick repetition of procedures for solving different types of equations that they already know. | How do we proceed in solving equations? How do we solve the equations with parentheses or fractions? |
| Repetition of solutions of known types of equations | 20 minutes | Pupils will work individually or in pairs over a given escape game. They will work on a computer, or tablets (phones). Pupils will proceed individually (or in pairs) in solving the examples. In case of problems in calculations, the teacher will help them individually. | Key competences: Problem solving competenceCommunication competenceWorking competenceSocial and personal competence https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/e/2PACX-1vSz9eZ-QyAszw69xKTi_YWELTEmvPwkyB6s9NFEQdXEkAPR7pzYuldHuvyWJdeyZQH-U-PgBrsegX4C/pub?start=true&loop=false&delayms=60000 |
| Exposition of new topic (frontal method with discussion about the problem) | 15 minutes | In this part we have prepared 2 or 3 exercises. Using appropriate questions, we will find together with students a procedure for solving equations with the unknown in the denominator. We will determine the conditions of the solution and explain what it means. We will solve both examples together and discuss the right solution. | Key competences: Problem solving competenceWorking competenceCommunication competence Exercises:  |
| Conclusion of the lesson (frontal method of education, discussion with the pupils) | 5 minutes | Teacher summarizes the lesson and uses questions to repeat the newly introduced concepts together with the pupils. | Key competences: Communication competenceWorking competence (Team – working competence) Homework from schoolbook |
