2. My class consists of 25 9th graders - 11 girls
and14 boys. Of the students, 12 are white, 8
are African American, and 5 are Latin
American. Additionally, 3 students have been
diagnosed with ADHD. The majority of my
students have visual and auditory learning
styles. This will require instruction that
incorporates plenty of verbal instruction,
auditory resources, opportunities for students
to visualize, and visual aids.
3. My students will simplify polynomial equations
by practicing problems created in class and on
Khan Academy with 85 percent accuracy by the
end of the unit. Additionally, students will factor
and solve for the variable x by practicing
problems given in class and comparing their
answers to the graphed representation of the
function on a calculator with 85 percent
accuracy. Students will also solve systems of
equations by graphing, substitution, and/or
elimination by completing a webquest with 85
percent accuracy by the end of the unit.
