Skills covered:

• Review similar triangles
• Use similar triangles to explain why the slope m is the same between any two distinct points on a line on a coordinate plane
• come up w the equation y = mx for a line through the origin (direct variation)
• come up with the equation y = mx + b for linear but not a direct variation

This PowerPoint….

• walks students through slope being the same between 2 points (3 examples)
• leads students to find the equations for direct variation (3 examples) and linear but not direct variations (3 examples)
• directs students to assess themselves
• is interactive - directs students to review topics as needed
• directs students to hand in formative assessment
• If students struggled, review parts of the PwrPt with them as necessary
• If students did not struggle, have them move on to another assignment

Ways to use this lesson:

• Great for general education classes as well as special education classes.
• Can be used to help students catch up after being absent
• Great resource for parents.
• Introduction
• Review
• Remediation
• Great for students to use in pairs and during stations.
