Or can
6. The student(s) do a different activity in a different
section of the school?
Instead of determining the slope of a line, using rise over run,
student will relate slope to solve real world problem using the
equation of slope. Student will be provided with bike ride
scenario and determining the steepness of a hill.
Or can

5. The student(s) do a different, parallel activity?

Instead of determining the slope of a line using rise over run,
student will use the equation of slope and two points on a line to
determine the slope of the line.

Or can
expectations?

4. The student(s) do a similar activity but with enhanced

Student will create a mathematical equation of a slope using

points on the line, and use that equation to find the slope of a
line.
Or can
3. The student(s) do the same activity but with enhanced
expectations and materials?
Student will use the mathematical equation of a slope to
determine and interpret the slope of a line. Student will then use
points on the line to graph the line using a ruler.
Or can
expectations?

2. The student(s) do the same activity but with enhanced

Student will use the mathematical equation of a slope to

determine and interpret the slope of a line. Student will then use
points on the line to graph the line.
1. Can all students actively participate in the lesson as is?
Student will use the mathematical equation of a slope to
determine and interpret the slope of a line.

If Not, can 2. The student(s) do the same activity but with modified
expectations?
Student will determine and interpret the slope of a line, using
rise over run.

If Not, can 3. The student(s) do the same activity but with modified
expectations and adapted materials?
Student will determine and interpret the slope of a line, using
rise over run, ruler, and a labeled graph.
If Not, can 4. The student(s) do a similar activity but with modified
expectations?
Student will determine the steepness of a line by counting the
change in the x and y coordinate
If Not, can 5. The student(s) do a similar activity but with adapted
materials?
Student will determine the steepness of a line by counting the
change in the x and y coordinate, by matching the graph to a
similar picture.
If Not, can 6. The student(s) do a different, parallel activity?
Student will determine if slope is positive, negative, zero, or
undefined by matching graphs to pictures.
If Not, can 7. The student(s) do a different activity in a different section of
the room?
Student will plot points on a graph using a mini white board, and
magnets.
If Not, can 8. The student(s) do a functional activity in a different section
of the school?
Student will identify positive and negative numbers on a number
line with assistant of teacher.
