Introduce slope, slope, and more slope, with this comprehensive video about....slope! Start with the slope formula and transition to counting the slope from a line on a coordinate plane. Your mathematicians will be able to see the relationship of rise over run and plug it into the y=mx+b formula. Not in the correct formula? The video demonstrates solving for y when the formula is not in the standard order. The lesson finishes with the special cases of slope such as horizontal and vertical lines, perpendicular, and parallel. A great way to rise up the topic and let your learners run with it!
