"Love! Love! Love! Doodle Notes and so do my students! "I've paid more attention in this class today than I did all of last year." That's what I heard after implementing doodle notes into my 8th grade math class. That sold me right there."

Description

Teach 8th grade students how to identify linear and nonlinear functions and how to compare functions using this Guided Notes & Doodles resource. Students identify characteristics of linear and nonlinear functions in tables, graphs, and equations. Then, they practice comparing linear functions (rate of change, initial values) represented in tables, graphs, verbal descriptions, and equations. It contains 10 pages total, including guided notes, a practice coloring worksheet, a maze, and a real-life math application. It works well as graphic organizers, scaffolded notes, and interactive notebooks. And it's artsy—if your students love color by number, color by code, or sketch notes, they'll love these lessons.

CCSS Standards: 8.F.A.2, 8.F.A.3, 8.F.A.4

Questions & Answers

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a linear function represented by a table of values and a linear function represented by an algebraic expression, determine which function has the greater rate of change.
Interpret the equation 𝘺 = 𝘮𝘹 + 𝘣 as defining a linear function, whose graph is a straight line; give examples of functions that are not linear. For example, the function 𝘈 = 𝑠² giving the area of a square as a function of its side length is not linear because its graph contains the points (1,1), (2,4) and (3,9), which are not on a straight line.
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.
