Students solve problems with slopes. For this algebra lesson, students identify the slope of a line and relate it to the rate of change.  They graph their lines on the TI and observe changes in the lines.

Building on knowledge from the previous lesson, the second lesson in this unit teaches scholars to identify and interpret rate of change and initial value of a linear function in context. They investigate how slope expresses the...

Don't go off on a tangent while writing equations of tangent lines! Scholars determine the equations for tangent lines to circles. They attempt both concrete and abstract examples, such as a tangent line to the unit circle through...

Middle schoolers use a computer to complete activitites about slope. They find the slope of mountains, roofs, and stairs using rise over run. Pupils are shown different types of slopes and have to identify if the slope is positive,...

Even though this assignment is brought to you by Physics Lab Online, it is best used as a math practice. Middle schoolers calculate the range, mean, mode, and median for a list of eight different paper clip densities. They analyze...

In this interactive worksheet, 8th graders review how to calculate the slope of a line, then solve 10 problems, given 2 points. Students may click for further information, on finding a slop of a line.

In this slope worksheet, students identify the slope of a line from a linear equation.  This one page worksheet contains twenty-two linear equations given in various forms.  Students will need to manipulate equations to...

In this slope worksheet, students determine the slopes of sixteen different graphed lines.  Solutions are provided on pages three and four of this worksheet.

More of a math lesson than physics or space science, high schoolers take a set of data and plot it on a log-log coordinate system. The write-up for day two was never completed, but day one, "Stars and Slopes," is complex and cohesive....

Looking for a great handout on slope? This resource makes a great study guide with the definition, diagrams, and the formula. Learners use coordinates to calculate the slope of lines. Positive, negative, zero, and undefined slope...

Solving systems of equations underpins much of advanced algebra, especially linear algebra. Developing an intuition for the kinds and descriptions of solutions is key for success in those later courses. This intuition is exactly what...

Do you need to graph lines to see the point? A thorough lesson plan provides comprehensive instruction focused on solving systems of equations by graphing. Resources include guided practice worksheet, skill practice worksheet,...

If it's warm, they will come! Learners find a line of best fit to show a relationship between temperature and beach visitors. Previous lessons in the series showed pupils how to create and find associations in scatter plots. Now,...

Let the class stars shine. Using four given linear equations, scholars create a graph of a star. The pupils use the interactive to graph the linear systems and determine the points of intersection. Through the activity, classmates...

In this linear slope learning exercise, students determine whether the slopes of four graphed lines are positive, negative, or neither.  Solutions are provided.

Young scholars explore the concept of slope.  In this Algebra I lesson, students investigate the definition of slope as rise over run or change in y compared to change in x.  The lesson includes a real-world problem in which...

Students identify the slope of a line. In this algebra lesson, students discover the process of how to find the slope of a line and classify the slope as positive, negative, zero or undefined. They find the slope of a line given two...

Students calculate the slope of a line. In this algebra lesson, students graph a line using the slope and y-intercepts. They define the steepness of the line using the slope.

Alegebra amateurs identify the slope and the y-intercept given a linear equation in slope-intercept form by correctly completing some in class problems. They write the linear equation in slope-intercept form that corresponds to the given...

In this writing linear equations worksheet, students find the x- and y-intercepts of 4 equations. Students then write equations for 4 problems given the slope and y-intercepts. Additionally, students rewrite 4 standard form equations in...

In this slope-intercept form, students identify the x- and y-intercept form of a line. They graph equations using the slope and y-intercept. Students write the equation of a line that contains a pair of points. This one-page worksheet...

Young mathematicians write equations of lines in this algebra lesson plan. They solve linear equations into the slope intercept form. Next, they graph the lines using the slope and the y-intercept, and they write equations for the lines...

Zip lines aren't so scary when all your scholars use them for is math. Young mathematicians see how the slope of a zip-line to a building changes as the height changes. They answer a set of challenge questions regarding the scenario.

This resource on learning about slopes from A-frames is A-okay. A simple interactive has learners adjust the height and width of an A-frame house, and then calculate the slope of the roof for each situation.
