Teacher Name: Alexandria Sullens Class and Grade Taught: Algebra 1 Lesson Date: Monday, November 21, 2011 Lesson Logistics and Setting Unit Topic: Previous Lesson Topic: Finding slope given two points Current Lesson Topic: Graphing using slope intercept form. Next Lesson Topic:
Lesson Objectives: (The learner will know/understand/be able to ) Identify what slope is. Compare the slope of a rollercoaster with the four different slope characteristics. Develop equations that describe the slope of the rollercoaster. Graph the equations they developed on the graphing calculator. Standards Addressed: How will I know students have met the objectives? Students will have met the objectives when they can develop a graph that describe the rollercoaster. They will also be able to explain how they developed the graph.

Exactly, so why dont you go back and describe how your stomach feels for each different slope.
Ok. Students may have trouble developing the equations. For this I want this to use the technology they have to play around with it to see how they should develop the equations.

When students are showing us their different solutions they will be asked to share how they developed their graph.
How did you develop your different equations? What ideas did you find when developing your equations? Describe the feeling you get in reference to your different equations? What new ideas did you learn about slope? What can you tell me about steepness of slope? What did you learn today?

So today we did a task about rollercoasters. We compared the different slopes of rollercoasters to the slope we have been talking about in class. Who can tell what they learned today? What new ideas were brought about doing this task? We had a discussion about steepness, and how the slope changes depending on the steepness of the graph. We noticed that the bigger slope, the steeper the slope. What can we take away from this? Do we now have a better understanding of what slope is?
Homework: For homework, go home and create a rollercoaster. Once you have created a rollercoaster, describe the different equations present in your rollercoaster.
