Mathematics is divided into several branches including geometry, algebra, statistics, and probability. Out of these branches, algebra is considered difficult for many students. Mastering the rules of algebraic expressions is the foundation of learning algebra. However, due to its abstract nature, many lower secondary school students find it difficult. The purpose of this study is to identify the effect of manipulative aided learning module on form one student’s achievement in algebraic expressions. A quasi-experimental study was conducted involving a treatment group and a control group where the treatment group used the manipulative aided learning module to learn algebraic expressions. The instrument of this study is a pre-test and a post-test on algebraic expressions. The results of the pre-test and post-test analysis show that the module help to close the achievement gap between the intervention group, where the intervention group also showed better results. This research paper suggests that using learning module that includes manipulative materials can be effective to improvement student’s achievement in algebraic expressions.
