Using Linear Equations to Count Pecans
Students will write linear equations in point-slope form given two points via a verbal description.
Working with Literal Equations
The lesson will provide a conceptual basis for illustrating the parallelism between solving multi-step equations and translating literal equations into solutions for specified variables.
Product and Quotient Properties of Exponents
This lesson helps students understand two foundational exponential properties: The Product and Quotient Properties of Exponents. Students will collaborate to formulate a rule for these properties. Ultimately, students should conclude that when the same bases are being multiplied, exponents will be added; and when the same bases are being divided, exponents will be subtracted. As the lesson progresses, students will apply these rules to simplify expressions of various difficulties.
This lesson is an examination of Executive Order 9066. By using several forms of media, students will grasp a full understanding of the causes and impacts of Executive Order 9066. Students will compare to past and current events to demonstrate a global understanding of historical events current events our nation encounters.
Students will use major events during the late 19th century to decide what a presidential candidate’s platform should be in order to improve the country at that time.
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.
No Interest If Paid in Full: How Much Do I Owe?
Students will write a linear equation from a real-world situation, identify the components of the equation, and interpret their meanings in the problem’s context.
Eric's Journey
Students will collaborate to solve a word problem involving rates of change using their prior knowledge and create a graph and/or table showing their work.
Students will work in groups to analyze documents/primary sources related to Watergate and draw conclusions about its impact on American society.
Identifying Key Features of Quadratic Functions
The students will be able to graph quadratic functions using key attributes of quadratic equations.
