Algebra 1
STAGE I – DESIRED RESULTS
LESSON TOPIC:
BIG IDEAS:
Patterns & Graphing Functions (Chapter 4)
M11.D.1.1 Analyze and/or use patterns or relations.
M11.D.2.1 Solve and/or graph linear equations and
inequalities using various methods.
UNDERSTANDING GOALS (CONCEPTS):
This unit connects algebraic equations to geometric models.
Students identify coordinates on the axes along with relations,
functions, domain, range, and inverses. Students explore the
intercepts on the axes and also from tables. They look for patterns
and write equations for arithmetic sequences.
VOCABULARY: graph, axis, origin, coordinate, quadrant,
relation, function, linear equation, arithmetic sequence,
function notation, standard form, x and y intercepts.
ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS:
What is a coordinate system important for locating points?
How do archeologists, surveyor, and GPS systems use
coordinates? How are statistics represented with relations? What
can you tell about a relation or function by its graph? What are
ways that scientists use linear equations ? Express how functions
and mapping can be used by weathermen. What is an arithmetic
sequence ? Are there other types of sequences ? Why is is
important to be able to write an equation from a pattern?
STUDENT OBJECTIVES (COMPETENCIES/OUTCOMES):
Students will be able to:
1. Locate and graph points on the coordinate
plane. (section 4-1)
2. Represent relations as ordered pairs, tables,
mappings, and graphs. (section 4-3)
3. Determine the domain and range of a relation.
4. Graph a solution to an equation given its
domain.
5. Determine whether or not an equation is linear
and/or a function, and graph those that are.
6. Recognize arithmetic sequences and write
formulae for them (section 4-7).
7. Find the next term/object in any pattern
(section 4-8).
(2 days review, 1 enrichment, 1 assessment )
STAGE II – ASSESSMENT EVIDENCE
PERFORMANCE TASK:
Students will participate in class discussions, guided practice,
computer work, and whiteboard activities
OTHER EVIDENCE:
Students will actively participate in class examples, discussion,
classwork, whiteboards, open ended assessments, graphic
organizers, exit tickets, daily warm ups, homework, Study Island
and, unit tests, quizzes, and other formative assessments.
STAGE III: LEARNING PLAN
INSTRUCTIONAL
PROCEDURES:
(Active Engagement, Explicit
Instruction, Metacognition, Modeling,
Scaffolding)
Active Engagement
Note Taking, Modeling, Whole
Class Response, Partnering,
Higher Level Thinking Skills
Scaffolding
Guided Notes, Chunking,
Build on prior Knowledge,
Teacher Prompting, Visual
Support
Daily: Warm up will include a
spiraling review of prior
knowledge to include the
upcoming lesson
Daily: Check for
understanding using warmup,
homework, or formative
assessment questioning to
determine whether to continue
as needed or do interventions
as needed. ( model, spiral
scaffolding, instruct/reteach, as
needed)
MINI LESSON:

MATERIALS AND
RESOURCES:
Unit 2 Chapter 4 : Graphing
Relations and Functions
( Glencoe Text )
Unit 4 ( Algebra Rescue Text)
Warm ups & Exit polls(daily)
Homework (daily)
Guided practice and
Enrichment from Glencoe
Grab & Go workbooks
Curriculum Binder: Algebra
1 before books This has very
good additional practice for
students in these areas
INTERVENTIONS:
Study Island
A+ Math
Math Lab
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.
ASSIGNMENTS:
Note: all assignment are from
the same page, but different
questions are assigned based
on grouping by teacher.
