Lesson Overview Unit Description Lesson Description for Day State Standards Linear Equations Title: Linear Equations Author: William Danes Subject: Math Grade Level(s): 6–8, 9–12 Duration: 1 Day Graphing Linear Equations Examine the effects of changing m or b within the equation y=mx b Teks 6 The student is expected to investigate, describe, and predict the effects of the changes in m and b on the graph of y=mx b

Goals Unit Goals: TLW understand how to graph equations of lines using a point (including y-intercept) and the slope.

Lesson Goals: TLW be able to plot a point, slope, and sketch the graph of a line passing through the point with the given slope. TLW be able to document and predict the impact of changes to m and b of the equation y=mx b

Methods Anticipatory Set: Slope cheer List components need to calculate slope.

Introduce and Model New Knowledge: Display through power point image an equation and then demonstrate what would happen if you increased m by 2 and b by 1.

Provide Guided Practice: Dispplay equation and then increase b by 5 and have the class volunteer to explain that would happen. Offer three more examples of this. Have students volunteer to explain what would happened. By using the document camera the students can present the answers to the whole class.

Wrap-Up Provide Independent Practice: Give students 5 equations with 2 options for either m or b and have the students explain what those changes would do to the resulting graph. These equations can be presented on the screen via a projector. Give each student an equation and two options for m and b give the students the address for the class blog. Then give the driections that sudents are to go to the blog and explain what happens when m and b are changed.

Assessment Formative/Ongoing Assessment: Examine each student's blog for correct information concerning changes to the graph of y=mx b

Summative/End Of Lesson Assessment: Examine each student's blog for correct information concerning changes to the graph of y=mx b

Materials Other Resources Graphing Calculator A TI graphing calculator Power point a power point that demonstrates the changs to the graph of y=mx+b

The UDL- Lesson plan form is a great way to create your lesson plans. It provides you the chance to put all the needed components to a lesson plan that will allow a teacher to be successful in presenting material to students, It is a straightforward process that is easy to operate, especially if you are working in a familiar subject matter. If not it can be confusing and difficult. I think that unless a district was provided you with a different lesson plan form this a great one to use.
