Description
Challenge your students to work with real world linear relationships in these three differentiated, engaging projects.
Each project requires students to graph lines, create tables of values, write equations, interpret graphs, compare rates, and compare initial values. The projects increase in difficulty by providing information in different formats, asking more in-depth questions, and allowing creativity. The last project also introduces students to systems.
Differentiation can be difficult and time-consuming. If you are working with linear functions and know your students have varying levels of understanding, these projects are a great solution. A guide is provided with a list of skills required for each project.
A scoring rubric and answer keys are provided too.
Common Core Standards:
8.F.A.2 Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions).
8.F.A.4 Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from two (x, y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph. Interpret the rate of change and initial value of a linear function in terms of the situation it models, and in terms of its graph or a table of values.
8.F.A.5 Describe qualitatively the functional relationship between two quantities by analyzing a graph (e.g., where the function is increasing or decreasing, linear or nonlinear). Sketch a graph that exhibits the qualitative features of a function that has been described verbally.
