The culmination of this unit! Brings all the skills necessary around slope, connecting real-life situations to linear functions, and then comparing them. Great problem-solving day that requires a ton of logic.
Warm-up
10 minutes
Each day, students complete a warm-up that usually consists of spiraling the previous day's material, in addition to older material. Warm-up problems also sometimes extend lessons that students have encountered before to more unfamiliar contexts.

Today's warm-up reviews the previous day's lesson.

Homework

The homework file is a resource that generally includes 5-7 problems, some of which are related to the day's lesson, as well as spiraled review of previous lessons. I also give the kids the answers to all the problems.
Sometimes, the HW file is a take-home assessment.
