🎯 WALT: We Are Learning To

Understand the importance of order of operations and apply the GEMA rule correctly.

Success Criteria:

✓ I can explain why order of operations is necessary
✓ I can use GEMA (Grouped, Exponents, Multiplicative, Additive) to solve expressions
✓ I can show my working step by step

📚 Part 1: Understanding GEMA

G = _________________ (brackets, parentheses)

E = _________________ (powers, indices)

M = _________________ (multiplication and division)

A = _________________ (addition and subtraction)

a) 5 + 3 × 2 Operations: + ×

b) (4 + 6) ÷ 2 Operations: + ÷ ( )

c) 2³ - 4 × 1 Operations: ³ - ×

✏️ Part 2: Solving Expressions

a) 8 + 4 × 3

b) (12 - 4) ÷ 2

c) 3² + 5 × 2
