This Essential Learning document highlights those Common Core Standards identified for eighth grade as the priority standards for the year. It also documents the necessary prerequisite skills and expected proficiency rigor for each of the identified Essential Standards. There is also the identification of when it is taught and how it is assessed, aligning to the IM curriculum and the team created assessments/rubrics.

This task describes two linear functions using two different representations. To draw conclusions about the quantities, students have to find a common way of describing them. We have presented three solutions (1) Finding equations for both functions. (2) Using tables of values. (3) Using graphs.

This lesson unit is intended to help you assess how well students are able to:
Classify solutions to a pair of linear equations by considering their graphical representations.Use substitution to complete a table of values for a linear equation.Identify a linear equation from a given table of values.Graph and solve linear equations.

This lesson unit is intended to help you assess how well students working with square numbers are able to: choose an appropriate, systematic way to collect and organize data, examining the data for patterns; describe and explain findings clearly and effectively; generalize using numerical, geometrical, graphical and/or algebraic structure; and explain why certain results are possible/impossible, moving towards a proof.

In the first topic of this 15 day module, students learn the concept of a function and why functions are necessary for describing geometric concepts and occurrences in everyday life.  Once a formal definition of a function is provided, students then consider functions of discrete and continuous rates and understand the difference between the two.  Students apply their knowledge of linear equations and their graphs from Module 4 to graphs of linear functions.  Students inspect the rate of change of linear functions and conclude that the rate of change is the slope of the graph of a line.  They learn to interpret the equation y=mx+b as defining a linear function whose graph is a line.  Students compare linear functions and their graphs and gain experience with non-linear functions as well.  In the second and final topic of this module, students extend what they learned in Grade 7 about how to solve real-world and mathematical problems related to volume from simple solids to include problems that require the formulas for cones, cylinders, and spheres.

This lesson unit is intended to help teahcers assess how well students are able to interpret speed as the slope of a linear graph and translate between the equation of a line and its graphical representation.

This lesson unit is intended to help you assess how well students use algebra in context, and in particular, how well students: explore relationships between variables in everyday situations; find unknown values from known values; find relationships between pairs of unknowns, and express these as tables and graphs; and find general relationships between several variables, and express these in different ways by rearranging formulae.

En el primer tema de este módulo de 15 días, los estudiantes aprenden el concepto de una función y por qué las funciones son necesarias para describir conceptos geométricos y ocurrencias en la vida cotidiana. Una vez que se proporciona una definición formal de una función, los estudiantes consideran funciones de tarifas discretas y continuas y comprenden la diferencia entre los dos. Los estudiantes aplican su conocimiento de las ecuaciones lineales y sus gráficos del módulo 4 a los gráficos de funciones lineales. Los estudiantes inspeccionan la tasa de cambio de funciones lineales y concluyen que la tasa de cambio es la pendiente de la gráfica de una línea. Aprenden a interpretar la ecuación y = mx+b como definir una función lineal cuyo gráfico es una línea. Los estudiantes comparan funciones lineales y sus gráficos y también obtienen experiencia con funciones no lineales. En el segundo y último tema de este módulo, los estudiantes extienden lo que aprendieron en el grado 7 sobre cómo resolver los problemas del mundo real y las matemáticas relacionadas con el volumen de sólidos simples para incluir problemas que requieren las fórmulas para conos, cilindros y esferas.

This resource is an interactive activity that helps students analyze and determine whether the plotted data is a linear, quadratic, or exponential function.  If the teacher logs in, a code pops up for students to enter into their own device and student responses are collected and reported.  It would be a great activity to use with iPads.
