This document outlines a 5-day lesson plan for teaching linear equations to a 9th grade class of 10 boys and 8 girls. The lesson plan covers writing linear equations in various forms, including slope-intercept, point-slope, standard, and using two points. Students will learn through board work, games, and using a SMART board and computers for interactive activities. The goal is for 90% of students to understand linear equations. Technology like the SMART board and computers will be used for problems, crosswords, and games.

1. Linear Equations
Caleb Thaxton

2. Analyze the Learner
 My students will learn how to write linear
equation in slope intercept form, when given two
points, when given the slope and a point, the
point slope form of a linear equation, the
standard form of a linear equation and be able to
use a scatter plot to find the equation of the line.
Ill be teaching this to my 9th grade class which has
10 boys and 8 girls.

3. Objective
 I will be teaching Linear equations to my class by
mostly board work but there is crosswords and
games for each section I plan on using. There will
be problems on the smart board before class
starts for the students to answer. Also I will use
the flip card method for definitions. 90% of my
students will know and understand Linear
equations.

4. Day by Day
 Day 1: Writing linear equations in point-slope
form and in slope-intercept form
 Day 2: Writing linear equations given the slope
and a point, also given two points
 Day 3: The standard form of a linear equation
 Day 4: Fitting a line to data
 Day 5: Predicting with linear models

5. Use of Technology
 Ill be conducting class with the use of a SMART
Board where students will come up and answer
problems before class. Also the use of computers
for the students to complete crosswords and math
games and the flip card activity.
