INSTRUCTIONAL LESSON PLANS
Teacher:YostSubject:Algebra I (Part 2)Period(s): 1
Dates: 1/16/17 until 1/20/17Unit:Linear Equations.
SOLs (or Competencies) Addressed:
A.6a -The student will graph linear equations and linear inequalities in two variables, including determining the slope of a line when given an equation of the line, the graph of the line, or two points on the line. Slope will be described as rate of change and will be positive, negative, zero, or undefined.
A.7d-The student will investigate and analyze function (linear and quadratic) families and their characteristics both algebraically and graphically, includingx- andy-intercepts. Graphing calculators will be used both as a primary tool in solving problems and to verify algebraic solutions.
Learning Objectives:
The student will Write The equation of a line, given the graph of a line or given the slope and y –intercept.
The student will Determine the equation of a line, given a point on the line and the slope of the line.
The student will Determine the equation of a line, given two points on theline.
Instructional/Assessment Activities:
WarmUP – This is a bellringer activity which will go over the previous days lesson.
Guided Practice – This is a visual presentation given to students in the form of a powerpoint or a smart-board presentation.
Independent Practice- This will be Individual assignments from the students workbook or text. Occasionally this will be in the form of a puzzle or teacher made hand-out.
Summary and Review-This will be a brief Q & A session to review material learned for that class period or an exit slip to reinforce learning for the day.
Monday
Writing the Equation for Line (Type I), given the slope and y-intercept or from a graph. (PowerTest assignment- 20 questions).
Tuesday
Review CW – Guided Practice – Notes Writing the Equation of a line (Type 2), given a point on the line and the slope of the line. / Independent Practice – from text.
Wednesday
Writing the Equation for a Line (Type 2), given the slope of the line and a point on the line (PowerTest – Assignment –)
Thursday
Review CW – Guided Practice – Notes Writing the Equation of a line (Type 3), given two points on the line. / Independent Practice – from text.
Friday
Writing the Equation for a line (Type 3, given two points on the line), Power Test Assignment
Summative Assessment
PowerTest Assignments will be given on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Technology
Smart Board will be used as an aid to check student understanding.
Turning Point Clicker System will be used to check for individual readiness.
TI 84 Plus Calculator will be used as an aid to check solutions.
Formative Assessment
The Student will graph linear equations.
The Student will determine the slope of a line using the vertical rise and the horizontal run.
The student will determine the slope of a line using two points on the line.
Differentiation
WarmUP (Bellringers) will be used every day to assess individual understanding of previous topics covered.
Summative Assessments (Quizzes and Tests) will be used as a primary tool to guide instruction for individual student needs. Remediation will be provided for students who are not ready for the next topic. Students who have mastered content will be provided with extended practice (challenge problems).
Time will be allotted each day (other than the day of a quiz or test) for Independent practice to allow for additional support from the teacher to address individual needs.
If necessary, assignments will be altered to accommodate for those who may work at a slower pace.
The TI-84 Plus Graphing Calculator will be used as an aid for basic operations.
