STAGE I – DESIRED RESULTS
Lesson Topic (Modules, if applicable):
Unit 2 : Linear Relations and Functions
 Relations and functions
 Linear Equations
 Slope
 Writing Linear Equations
 Modeling Real World Data With
scatterplots
 Special functions
 Graphing Inequalities
Big Ideas:
Numbers, measures, expressions,
equations, and inequalities can represent
mathematical situations and structures in
many equivalent forms.
Understanding Goals (Concepts):
Student Objectives (Competencies/Outcomes):
Students will be able to:
Essential Questions:

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
1. Analyze and graph relations
2. Write and graph linear equations given
slope and/or point(s) on a line
3. Find and use slope of a line
4. Write equations for and graph parallel
and perpendicular lines
5. Draw scatter plots and determine
equations for lines of best fit
6. Graph absolute value functions on a
coordinate plane
7. Graph linear inequalities on a
coordinate plane
8. Solve real-world problems modeled by
linear functions
 (2 days review, 1 enrichment, 1
assessment )
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.
Represent exponential functions in
There are some mathematical relationships 2.
that are always true and these relationships multiple ways, including tab les , graphs,
equations, and contextual situations, and
are used as the rules of arithmetic and
make connections among representations;
algebra and are useful for writing
relate the growth/decay rate of the
equivalent forms of expressions and
associated exponential equation to each
solving equations and inequalities.
representation
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?
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

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)
