Lesson Plans
for November 30, 2015- December 4, 2015
Monday- (Standard 8.F.2, 8.F.4) and RTI (Functions)
I can determine the rate of change (slope) from two points. I can determine the rate of change (slope) from a
graph. I can write an equation from a graph.
Students will review knowledge over finding rate of change from a graph and writing an equation from a
graph. Students will use knowledge and apply the work in order to find the rate of change from two
points. Students will have notes in the interactive notebook. Students will complete independent
practice over finding slope from two points.
Formative Assessment: Exit Slip
Tuesday- (Standard 8.F.2, 8.F.4) and RTI (Functions)
Students will complete the “Walk This Way” (Set 2) activity over finding the slope and equation from a table.
Students will use the program Desmos on the Ipads to determine if the equations constructed correctly match the
tables provided. Students will work cooperatively in pairs to complete this activity.
RTI - I can write an equation from a table. Students will use the RTI materials provided by Vonda (Walk
this Way Set 1). Students will analyze a table to find the slope (pattern) and the initial value (start value)
in order to construct a linear equation.
Formative Assessment: Exit Slip
Wednesday- Functions (8.F.2,8.F.4) and RTI (Functions)
Test Completion/Introduction to Function
I can determine the rate of change (slope) from a real world graph. I can write an equation from a graph.
Using the Carnegie materials students will find the rate of change from a real world graph. Students will analyze
the use of slope in real world situations. The second part of class will be a card sort activity where students find
the slope and y-intercept from a graph to write an equation. Students will match the cards to the correct graph,
table and equation.
Formative Assessment: Observation
Thursday - Slope (Standard 8.F.2, 8.F.4)
I can determine the rate of change (slope) from a table. I can write an equation from a graph.
Students will use the Carnegie materials to determine the rate of change from a table. Students will be given
interactive notes over finding rate of change from a table. Students will also complete a Vocabulary Sheet for their
math notebook over linear equations concepts. Students will work on Moby Max during RTI time.

Friday – Slope (Standard 8.F.2, 8.F.4) and RTI (Functions)
I can determine the rate of change (slope) from a graph. I can write an equation from a graph. I can determine
the slope from a table.
Students will work cooperatively to determine the slope and equation from a graph and table. Students
will complete a Cut-Out Slope and Equations activity. Students will determine the slope from a graph
and write an equation from a graph. Students will take a short two question quiz over finding the rate of
change from a graph.
