Determining Slopes from Equations, Graphs, and Tables
Given algebraic, tabular, and graphical representations of linear functions, the student will determine the slope of the relationship from each of the representations.
Demonstrating the Pythagorean Theorem
Given pictures or models that represent the Pythagorean Theorem, the student will demonstrate an understanding of the theorem.

You will learn how to identify primary and secondary sources as you explore your research topic.
Using Databases, Electronic Sources, and Print Sources (English III Research)
You will learn how to access electronic sources and databases in addition to print sources and list all in a working bibliography.
Developing a Research Plan and Timeline (English III Research)
You will learn how to narrow your topic and develop a realistic schedule for completing your research project.
Allusion (English III Reading)
In this lesson, you will be able to find the allusions in a text, and discuss the role allusions play in helping you understand the text.
Evaluating Solutions for Reasonableness
Given problem situations, the student will determine if the solutions are reasonable.
Predicting, Finding, and Justifying Solutions to Problems
Given application problems, the student will use appropriate tables, graphs, and algebraic equations to find and justify solutions to problems.
Can We Get There?
Students will calculate the rate of change and y-intercept from a real-world problem represented in a graph, a table, and/or an equation. They will then display and present their findings to the class.
Students working in their group
Graphing Proportional Relationships
Given a proportional relationship, students will be able to graph a set of data from the relationship and interpret the unit rate as the slope of the line.
Analyzing Scatterplots
Given a set of data, the student will be able to generate a scatterplot, determine whether the data are linear or non-linear, describe an association between the two variables, and use a trend line to make predictions for data with a linear association.
Writing Geometric Relationships
Given information in a geometric context, students will be able to use informal arguments to establish facts about the angle sum and exterior angle of triangles, the angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the angle-angle criterion for similarity of triangles.
