PREVIOUS UNITSNo Previous UnitCURRENT UNITThe Current unit of study is Math Module Unit 1 which is the study of Integer Exponents and Scientific NotationArea of Interaction focus:Significant concept(s): Relationships help use make decisionsMYP unit question: How do I make decisions?MYP Objective: C. Communicating in D. Reflection in mathematics
- communicate a complete and coherent mathematical line of reasoning using different forms of representation when investigating complex problems
- explain the importance of his or her findings in connection to real life.
- suggest improvements to the method when necessary.
Students should be able to at the end of the unit be able to:- Represent problem situations verbally, numerically, algebraically, and graphically
- Use mathematics to show and understand social phenomena
- Create a graph given a description or an expression for a situation involving a linear or nonlinear relationship
- Understand that numerical information can be represented in multiple ways: arithmetically, algebraically, and graphically
- Interpret multiple representations using equation, table of values, and graph
- Determine the slope of a line from a graph and explain the meaning of slope as a constant rate of change
- Determine the y-intercept of a line from a graph and be able to explain the y-intercept
- Graph a line using a table of values
- Determine the equation of a line given the slope and the y-intercep8.G.17 Graph a line from an equation in slope-intercept form ( y = mx + b )
- Solve systems of equations graphically (only linear, integral solutions, y = mx + b format, no vertical/horizontal lines)Summative Assessment:
Real-life problem – A Test that will not only reflect personal hygiene and excercise issues along with the math but substance abuse issues as well.
Criteria(s) for assessments are:- Communication in mathematics
- Reflection in mathematics
