Writing Linear Equations Lesson | Warm-Up | Guided Notes | Homework

In this lesson, students explore writing equations of lines given different information and discover parallel and perpendicular lines. Students preview the lesson by watching a short video on YouTube and then come to class with some prior knowledge. This lesson includes a video link, a warm-up, notes, practice problems, and homework.

The concepts covered are:

• Find a linear equation

- given the slope and y-intercept

- given slope and a point

- given two points

• Parallel lines

• Perpendicular lines

• Students should be familiar with slope-intercept and point-slope form prior to this lesson

Students enjoy this way of learning because they figure the concepts out for themselves! This is a great lesson for students to work on individually, with a partner, or even as a substitute lesson.

Please take a look at the preview to find out more information about this resource.
