Monday
8.4c use data from a
table or graph to
determine the rate of
change or slope and y
intercept in
mathematical and real-
world problems
Students will generate,
compile, and analyze
data using
proportional
reasoning.
Given 3 questions
relating to the
compilation and
analysis of data,
students will use
proportional reasoning
to hypothesize
conclusions and give
supporting reasons to
justify their answers
Do now, find 25% of a set
of numbers. 5 minutes
Students form groups of 3
to do jump rope and heart
rate activity.
Teacher leads students to
find resting heart rate. 2
minutes
Students break into
groups and follow
detailed instructions on
worksheets. They will
jump rope for 3 minutes
and record quantity of
jumps. They will wait
one minute and record
heart rate.
This rotates through
group.
Students then complete
table that requires them to
divide to find rates per.
Students hypothesize
conclusions to questions
posed on dol. Students
will create graph of jump
rope activity for
homework.

Tuesday


8.4c use data from a
table or graph to
determine the rate of
change or slope and y
Students will be able to
analyze graphs and
tables to determine if
change is constant or
variable
Given 5 different forms
of data (graph or table)
students will correctly
determine if change is
constant or variable.
Do now: Estimate
