2. Content-
|
Slope
Y-intercept
y=mx + b |
| |
|
3. Goals: Aims/Outcomes-
|
| Students will be able to determine the equation of a line when it
is not written in the y=mx + b format |
| |
|
|
4. Objectives-
|
Students will be asked to use prior knowledge when writing the linear
equation.
m= slope
b= y-intercept |
| |
|
5. Materials and Aids-
|
| Overhead Projector/Transparencies/markers/handout |
| |
|
6. Procedures/Methods-
|
|
A. Introduction-
| 1.Problem of the day will focus students taking the given slope
and y-intercept and writing the correct equation |
| |
|
|
B. Development-
Teacher will begin lesson by reviewing the correct format for a
linear equation and how it should be written
y = 2x + 2 |
| |
|
|
C. Practice-
Teacher will model how sometimes linear equations are not given
to us in the y=mx + b format
Ex. 2y = 4x +2
Teacher will model several examples before giving the students and
opportunity to try them on their own |
| |
|
|
D. Independent Practice-
1.Students will have the opportunity to practice each of the above
|
| |
|
|
E. Accommodations (Differentiated Instruction)-
1.Students who need it will give more one on one attention
2.Students will be paired with another student who can assist them
3. If necessary students will be given a calculator to assist them
with some of the integer division |
| |
|
|
F. Checking for understanding-
1.Teacher will give students a task at the end of the period to
ensure student understanding

|
G. Closure-
| 1.Students will be able to explain the difference between an equation
already written in the y=mx + b format and one that is not and what
to do in that situation |
