A great PowerPoint introduction to expanding and factorising single brackets. Includes worked examples planned to give clear progression, with plenty of questions to try throughout. It starts with multiplying brackets by a positive number, moves on to multiplying with negative numbers and then to expanding and simplifying. Finally, it goes through how to fully factorise linear expressions.

Nice clear powerpoint, although the multiplying negative rules bubble is confusing - I changed the font here as it looked like an algebraic x and not a multiply sign which will confuse kids.
