Seventh graders graph ordered pairs on a coordinate plane. They create a scatterplot. Additionally, they determine the line of best fit and investigate the slope of the line. Multiple resources are provided. An excellent resource!

Students explore the concept of slope.  In this Algebra I instructional activity, students investigate the definition of slope as rise over run or change in y compared to change in x.  The instructional activity includes a...

Students identify the slope of a line. In this algebra lesson, students discover the process of how to find the slope of a line and classify the slope as positive, negative, zero or undefined. They find the slope of a line given two...

Solve equations and graph systems of inequalities. Designed as a instructional activity to reinforce these concepts, learners revisit shading and boundaries along with solving linear inequalities.

How can you graph lines that don't seem to fit on the given graph? What makes a line straight? What does the rate of change mean when graphing a line? How do you know if a slope is positive or negative? How do you know if the graph of a...

This instructional activity begins with a review of linear functions and segues nicely over its fifteen examples and problems into a deep study of exponential functions. Linear and exponential growth are compared in an investment task....

Students define the slope of the line, find the slope between any two points on the line, and allow them to name other areas where the slope is used. They explain why the slope is defined as the rise over the run.

Learners find the slopes of linear functions. In this graphing lesson, students analyze linear equations and calculate the slope of the line. They graph a line given the slope and y-intercept.

Students define parallel and perpendicular lines. In this algebra lesson, students relate the concept of parallel and perpendicular lines to the real world. They classify the lines based on their slopes.
