About this worksheet

What students practice

Students evaluate numerical expressions with parentheses, brackets, and braces by working from the inside out.
Students choose where parentheses go so that an expression has a given value.
Students explain how moving grouping symbols changes the value of an expression.

How to use

Model one nested expression first, underlining the innermost group at each step. Then have students show each step on scrap paper before writing the final value.
