Understanding Goals (Concepts):
Student Objectives (Competencies/Outcomes):
Students will be able to:
Essential Questions:
Vocabulary:
How do you explain the benefits of multiple
methods of representing polynomial
functions (tables, graphs, equations, and
contextual situations)?
absolute value
equation
formula
open sentence
order or operations
rational number
real number
solution
variable
constant
irrational number
properties of equality
Use algebraic properties and processes in
mathematical situations and apply them to
solve real world problems.
•
Classify real numbers
•
Use order of operations and
properties of real numbers to evaluate
expressions
•
Solve linear & absolute value
equations
•
Translate verbal expressions into
algebraic expressions and equations
 • Solve and graph on a number line
simple, compound and absolute value
inequalities.
What are the advantages/disadvantages of
the various methods to represent
exponential functions (table, graph,
equation) and how do we choose the most
appropriate representation?
1.
Extend algebraic properties and
processes to quadratic, exponential, and
polynomial expressions and equations and
to matrices, and apply them to solve real
world problems.
2.
Represent exponential functions in
multiple ways, including tab les , graphs,
equations, and contextual situations, and
make connections among representations;
relate the growth/decay rate of the
associated exponential equation to each
representation.
STAGE II – ASSESSMENT EVIDENCE
Performance Task: Students will show proficiency through formative
assessment, daily class work, homework, and unit test.
Formative Assessments:
Do now’s, writing prompts, think-pair-share- exit polls
STAGE III – LEARNING PLAN
Interventions:
Materials and Resources:
Textbook
Warm ups & Exit polls(daily)
Homework (daily)
Guided practice and Enrichment from Glencoe Grab & Go
workbooks
Glencoe teacher works…chalkboard is
Good for Promethean Board use. Use end of powerpoint for
extra examples and practice.
Use 5 minute check as exit slip.
TTM
Study Island
A+ Math
Math Lab
Khan Academy Videos
Keystone Diagnostic Tool
National Library of Virtual Manipulatives is an excellent site for
use with promethean boards for this unit.
On line activities are very good in this chapter for finding a pattern
and making predictions based on your observations.
Truly struggling students will be referred to guidance/SAP (RTI)
