Instructional Ideas
- Have the class create a graphic organizer comparing the shapes of graphs, rates of change, and equations for linear and nonlinear functions
Classroom Considerations
- Provide graph paper for learners to use in the problem set
- Pupils need to be able to calculate rate of change using the slope formula
Pros
- Includes reproducible student worksheets for all parts of the lesson
- Contains input/output tables for class members to fill in
Cons
- None
