Due:

2nd 9 weeks, Week 3

 Walker     8th Grade Math   Week 3  Lesson Plan -       Dates: October 31- November 4

Established Goal(s)/Content Standard(s):  


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.2 

Compare properties of two  functions each represented in  a different way (algebraically,  graphically, numerically in  tables, or by verbal  descriptions.) For example,  given a linear function  

represented by a table of values  and a linear function represented by an algebraic  expression, determine which  function has the greater rate of  change.


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.  For example, the function A = s2  giving the area of a square as a  function of its side length is not linear because its graph  

contains the points (1,1), (2,4),  and (3,9), which are not on a  straight line.
 

Understanding (s)

Students will understand that: (1)


F.1 • Input is the number or piece of data  that is put into a function. 

• Output is the number or piece of  data that is the result of an input of a  function. 

• A rule is a summary of a predictable  relationship that tells how to find the  value of a variable. 

• This standard extends the  

understanding of constant rate. 

• How to reason abstractly and  

quantitatively. 

• The parts of the coordinate plane.

F.2• The slope (m) of a line is a constant rate of change. 

• Functions can be represented in  a table, as a rule, as a formula or equation, as a graph, or as a verbal description. 

• Functions describe situations  where one quantity determines another. 

• How to determine the rate of change (slope) from an equation, a graph, a table, and a verbal description. 

• How to find the y-intercept.

Essential Question(s):(found in Pearson book)

-When is a relation a function?


-What are different representations of a function?

- How can you compare two functions?

- How can you use a function to represent a linear relationship?
 

Student objectives (outcomes): See Scaffolding Document

Students will be able to(3): What key knowledge and skills will students acquire as a result of this unit?


• Determine functions from non numerical data. 

• Graph inputs and outputs as ordered pairs in the coordinate plane. 

• Graph functions in the coordinate plane. 

• Read inputs and outputs from the graph of a function in the coordinate plane. 

• Tell whether a set of points in the plane represent a function.

.

F.2•• Translate among representations and partial representations of functions. 

• Determine the properties of a function from a verbal description, table, graph, or algebraic form. 

• Make comparisons between the properties of two functions represented differently.


What do students need to know to meet the above standard?

To understand, students will need to know……

• Functions are useful in making  sense of patterns and making predictions. 

• Functions describe situations where one quantity determines another. 

• A function represents a relationship  between an input and an output,where the output depends on the input; therefore, there can be only  one output for each input. 

• How to graph ordered pairs. 

• How to name ordered pairs from a  graph.


F.2• Rate of change is the amount of  change in the dependent variable  produced by a given change in the  independent variable. 

• A function is a rule that assigns to  each input exactly one output. 

• A linear function is a function whose  graph is a line. 

• The y-intercept is the point where  the graph crosses the y-axis. 

• How to reason abstractly and quantitatively.
