ALGEBRA 1 HONORS LESSON PLAN
Date September 1-5
Essential Question(s)
What is the process for solving and graphing an inequality or an equation?
What techniques are available to prove that you have solved a linear equation and how do you use
them?
Measureable Objective Students will be able to create, solve, and justify algebraic equations and literal
equations using algebraic properties
Learning Goal Students will be able to justify solution steps of equations, create and solve
equations/inequalities using multiple strategies, and summarize constraints for inequalities.
Benchmarks
MAFS.912.N-Q.1.2 (DOK 2) Define appropriate quantities for the purpose of descriptive modeling.
MAFS.912.N-Q.1.3 (DOK 2) Identify appropriate units of measurement to report quantities.
Determine the limitations of different measurement tools.
MAFS.912.A- SSE.1.1.a: (DOK 2) Interpret parts of an expression, such as terms, factors, and
coefficients. Create equations and inequalities in one variable to model real world situations.
MAFS.912.A- CED.1.1: (DOK 2) Create equations and inequalities in one variable and use them
to solve problems. Include equations arising from linear functions and inequalities
MAFS.912.A- CED.1.4: (DOK 1) Rearrange formulas to highlight a quantity of interest, using
the same reasoning as in solving equations. ( Literal Equations)
MAFS.912.A-REI.1.1 (DOK 3) Explain each step in solving a simple equation as following from
the equality of numbers asserted at the previous step, starting from the assumption that the
original equation has a solution. Construct a viable argument to justify a solution method using
algebraic properties.
MAFS.912.A-REI.2.3 (DOK 2) Solve linear equations and inequalities in one variable, including
equations with coefficients represented by letters.
