Interacting with Mathematics in KS3: Linear Equations
This pack provides a framework of objectives for teaching algebra to Years 7, 8 and 9. There is additional guidance on developing progression in the teaching of constructing and solving linear equations. Although specific in this focus, it illustrates an approach that is designed to serve the broader purpose of developing the teaching of all aspects of algebra.

It is an old National Strategies resource based on the OLD National Curriculum expectations, but still has some great ideas and strategies.
