Lesson Plan - 1scribd

This lesson plan summary is as follows: 1) The lesson objectives are for students to group graphs based on their characteristics and understand what graphs represent real world situations. 2) A warm up drill on patterns and sequences will scaffold the graphing concepts introduced in the lesson. 3) Various hands-on activities like graph sorting, categorizing, writing stories, and solving real world problems with graphs will be used to actively engage students. 4) Formative assessments throughout will monitor understanding, and exit tickets on graph properties and storytelling will check learning of the objectives.

instruction to measure the level of student
mastery of each objective?
How will the objectives be shared with
students?
Why are the objectives for todays lesson
important?
How does this lesson align with curriculum
standards and school initiatives?

Lesson Objectives:

Time:

Students will be able to group graphs based on their appearance in order to describe those characteristics
using mathematical terminology
Students will able to understand what a graph means in order to describe a real world situation that could be
given by a graph
The objective will be shared verbally with the students
Resources: Graph cut-outs, scissors,
Common Core Standard
8.F.1: Understand 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.5: Describe quantitatively the functional relationship between two quantities by analyzing a graph (e.g.,
where the function is increasing or decreasing, linear or nonlinear). Sketch a graph that exhibits the
qualitative features of a function that has been described verbally.

the lesson?

The drill scaffolds todays lesson by again looking at patterns and trying to identify the sequences that go
along with them. Graphing these sequences will be a large part of introducing characteristics of graphs

Will students be able to complete the warm How will the warm up provide scaffolding for

instruction?

Will there be accountability for completion?


How will correct answers be shared?

The drills for the week will assess patterns and the comparison to graphs
Drills will be collected at the end of the week
