LESSON TOPIC:
EXPRESSIONS AND EQUATIONS
BIG IDEAS:
M11.A.1.1 Represent and/or use numbers in equivalent forms
(e.g., integers, fractions, decimals, percents, square roots, exponents and scientific notation).
M11.A.2.2 Use exponents, roots and/or absolute value to solve problems.
M11.A.3.1
Apply the order of operations in computation and in problem-solving situations.
UNDERSTANDING GOALS (CONCEPTS):
Students will discover the relationship between algebraic expressions and verbal expressions. They will apply this in order to perform operations that contain both constants and variables.
They will use order of operations and basic properties of algebra in order to solve open sentences and simplify expressions.
Students will use tables and the coordinate system to draw graphs of functions. They will learn the rudimentary elements of functions and decide the best way to illustrate this function graphically.
VOCABULARY:
Algebraic expression, equation
Commutative, associative, distributive properties
Transitive, symmetric, substitution properties
Variable, constant, coefficient, exponent
Domain, range, origin, coordinate axes
Solution set
ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS:
Why is there a need for order of operations?
What words tell you to perform mathematical operations?
What does the verb simplify mean in math?
What is a replacement set? A truth set?
Why do you graph?
What is a graph supposed to tell you?
What are the basic properties of algebra and why do we use them?
STUDENT OBJECTIVES (COMPETENCIES/OUTCOMES):
Students will be able to:
1.
Write mathematical expressions for verbal expressions, and vice versa.(1 day)
2.
Evaluate numerical & algebraic expressions using order of operations. (1 days)
3.
Solve open sentence equations & inequalities.(2 days)
4.
Recognize and use properties of identity & equality.(1day)
5.

6.
Recognize and use commutative & associative properties. .(1day)
7.
Interpret and draw graphs of functions. .(1day)
8.
