7 lessons, about 16 days with the quiz, review and test, in one download: Proportional Relationships, Comparing Proportional Relationships, Slope from Graphs, Tables and Points, Slope and Similar Triangles, Types of Slope, Slope-Intercept Form, Graphing y = mx + b.
7 lessons, in teaching order
Built to 8.EE.B.5, 8.F.B.4, 8.EE.B.6, 8.F.A.3. Each lesson has guided notes, practice, an exit ticket, a homework page, worked answer keys and a click-by-click Teacher Deck.
- Lesson 1 Proportional Relationships I can tell when a graph shows a proportional relationship, find the unit rate k from a graph, a table or an equation, read it as the slope, and compare two proportional relationships shown in different ways.
- Lesson 2 Comparing Proportional Relationships I can find the unit rate of a proportional relationship from a graph, a table, an equation or words, turn a rate around or change its units so two rates line up, and compare them in context.
- Lesson 3 Slope from Graphs, Tables and Points I can find a line's slope from a graph, a table or two points: the rise divided by the run, both found from one start point to one end point.
- Lesson 4 Slope and Similar Triangles I can show that slope triangles on one line are similar, so every one gives the same rise ÷ run; use that to find an unknown run or rise, test a point, and write y = mx or y = mx + b from a triangle to a point (x, y).
- Lesson 5 Types of Slope I can read a line as x grows to tell whether its slope is positive, negative, 0 or undefined, and write the equations y = c and x = c.
- Lesson 6 Slope-Intercept Form I can read the slope m and the y-intercept b from an equation, a graph or two points, write y = mx + b, and graph a line from (0, b) and its slope.
- Lesson 7 Graphing y = mx + b I can graph y = mx + b by plotting (0, b) on the y-axis, then stepping by the slope to more points and drawing the line.
