Weekly Lesson Plan
Teacher (s): Rachel Cazalas/ Cheryl Gavin___ Subject: Math -7 Advanced Week Of: _Nov 28, 2016 - Dec 02, 2016 (Wk. 16)
Learning Objectives: Using function tables and graphs and determine whether a set of data is continuous or discrete. Understanding the connections between lines, and linear equations. 8. F.1 Understanding that a function is a rule that assigns to each input exactly one output. The graph of a function is the set of ordered pairs consisting of an input and the corresponding output. 8. F.3 Interpret the equation y = mx + b as defining a linear function, whose graph is a straight line; give examples of functions that are not linear 8. F.4 Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from two (x, y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph. Assessment: (on-going visual and auditory)
