  • Treasure Hunt follow-up
    • How do you use slope?
    • How do you find the slope of a line?
  • How do arithmetic sequences relate to linear equations?
    • What is slope?
    • Where can you find the other number?
  • AIA Project “Slope-Intercept Form”
    • Find Enemy Camps by following the slope path.
    • Write the roads in and out of the camps using slope intercept form.

Tuesday:  Final Assessment Review Day

Learning Targets:  All targets for the assessment this week.

  • AIA Project “Slope-Intercept Form” Q&A
    • What roadblocks in your project have given you trouble or you cannot pass?
    • What tips can we gather from other classmates?
  • Review for final assessment of the term.
  • 20 minute rotations
    • Group 1:  Correct last week’s assessment and ask questions.
    • Group 2:  Computer review of Learning Target.
    • Group 3:  Worksheet on Transformations and Arithmetic Sequence.

Wednesday:  Weekly Assessment 8

Learning Targets Covered;

Thursday:  Thursday:  Graphing & Writing Linear Equations

Learning Target: You will understand how to recognize and write different forms of Linear Equations.

  • How do arithmetic sequences relate to linear equations?
    • What is slope?
    • Where can you find the other number?
  • Slope-Intercept Form Warm-up (Textbook Lesson 5-3 & 5-4)
    • Write an Equations to a Line containing points (3, -2) & (6, 4)
    • What should the equations look like?
    • What do we need to write the equations?
    • How can we find them?
    • Where do they go once we find them?
    • Graph to Check
  • Class Practice with different givens
    • Two Points
    • One point and the slope
