Lesson Plan Template (Traditional) (change in //y//-value) per unit of horizontal change (change in //x//-value) is always the same and know that the ratio (“rise over run”) is called the slope of a graph.

 * Disabilities: One student has visual imparement
 * Learning Differences: Below basic, Basic, and Proficient
 * Current Knowledge, Prerequisites, and Notes About Learner Attitudes: This lesson was covered in section 7-1 however by 7-4 I found students could no longer find coordinates and plot them on a graph.

 * **Title How to use functions to plot on a graph** ||
 * **Summary : This is a lesson that I covered earlier . In Review to the next lesson from plotting linear functions which is a straight line I found the students had difficulting in plotting quadradic functions that involve a parabula, which is a “U”shaped figure that has a turning point.** ||
 * **Standards** ||
 * **State/National: AF3.1 Graph functions of the form //y = nx2 and y = nx3// and use in solving problems.**
 * Preparation for AF3.3: ****Graph linear functions, **noting that the vertical change

Students use critical thinking skills to plan and conduct research, manage projects, solve problems, and make informed decisions using appropriate digital tools and resources. Students: || a. || identify and define authentic problems and significant questions for investigation. ||
 * Technology – NETS for Students:** **4. ** **Critical Thinking, Problem Solving, and Decision Making**
 * b. || plan and manage activities to develop a solution or complete a project. ||
 * c. || <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">collect and analyze data to identify solutions and/or make informed decisions. ||
 * <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">d. || <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 16px;">use multiple processes and diverse perspectives to explore alternative solutions. || ||
 * **Learning Objectives** ** (created from learning outcomes) ** ||
 * State the objectives for the lesson—make sure each objective is measurable. The objectives need to align with the levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy.
 * **Procedural Knowledge** (how to do something, including methods of inquiry and criteria for using skills, algorithms, techniques, and methods)
 * a. Knowledge of subject-specific skills and algorithms
 * b. Knowledge of subject-specific techniques and methods
 * c. Knowledge of criteria for determining when to use appropriate procedures

Define terms used for evaluating Algebraic Expressions. Solve for problems by formulating expressions through plugging in given values for each variable. || PC/Mac Computer || Internet Browser || A student must know how to: Not able to find a graph that can be plotted online. Since I am not a programmer I will only use function and demonstrate graphs. Students will have to choose the right graph. This still aligns to the state standards. || Copyright 2010.
