 1. Learning Goals/Objectives
What student learning goals/objectives do Which indicators of the Arizona content
you have for this lesson? standards does this lesson address?

1. Students will be able to observe a Mathematics- Expressions and Equations

Coordinate plane and write the 6.EE.C.9.
location of the given coordinates or
find where the given coordinate is Use variables to represent two quantities in
on the graph. a real world problem that change in
2. Be able to see the differences relationship to one another.
between the quadrants and what
each one has in their coordinates.

2. Methodology
What instructional strategies will you use?
Constructions Library Research
X Cooperative Learning Peer Editing
Discussion/Questioning Practicum
X Problem Solving Field Study
Reflection/Response X Graphic Organizers
Independent Learning Role Playing
Laboratory X Viewing/Listening/Answering
X Practice/Drill Experiment
Lecture Discovery
Reporting Journal
Simulation Other:

Why did you choose these strategies/methods?

I chose these because I want my students to watch as I demonstrate the different ways to
use the coordinate plane. Also understand the terminology used with coordinate planes.

How will you group students for instruction?

I will talk and discuss with each other in groups of two students. They will work with
each other and individually during the lesson.

List below your activities/steps including 1. HOW you activate background knowledge,
2. GAIN student attention (set induction), 3. DEMONSTRATE processes and desired
outcomes (a. modeling, b. guided practice, c. independent practice), and 4. BRING
closure to the lesson. Finally, 5. ARTICULATE how you will evaluate your
lesson/determine if student learning occurred. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU INCLUDE
EACH OF THESE FIVE COMPONENTS IN THE ACTIVITIES/STEPS OF YOUR
LESSON.
 Activity/Step
(Explain each step)
1. How you activate background
knowledge.
I will talk about our previous work with the
graph and what we used it for.
2. Gain student attention.
I will gain the students attention by
showing them a video on coordinate
planes.
3. Demonstrate ..
I will use the doc camera to show the work
I do on the board so they can see how it is
done.
4. Bring closure to lesson
I'll have the students discuss in a group
what they have learned and what they still
have questions on.
5. Articulate how you will evaluate how
learning has occurred..
To evaluate my students I will give the
students a worksheet that will have them
write the letter that fits with the given
point, the coordinate of the point, and plot
the letters themselves.
Time Allocated
9am: Reintroduce myself and talk about
plan for the class that day.

coordinate planes
9:03am Begin talking to them about what
we have learned about with coordinate
planes
9:08am watch a video on coordinate
planes
9:13am Ask students question if there is
anything they are confused about
9:16am Demonstrate an example problem
on the doc camera and have the students
work with me.
