2014-2015 Algebra I Unit Of Measurement I Interactive Notebook Pages

Look who is finally posting Algebra 1 interactive notebook pages. In April.

This year, inwards Algebra 1, I decided to skip over the review I would unremarkably start the twelvemonth amongst as well as confine into relations as well as functions. The jury is all the same out on whether this was the best determination for my kids. But, what's done is done. And, I volition stimulate got all summertime to mean value close it as well as create upwards one's hear how I desire to construction my course of report for adjacent twelvemonth to improve educatee understanding.

We began the unit of measurement amongst a table of contents sheet. You volition uncovering that this unit of measurement is VERY similar to in conclusion year's Unit 5. There are a few tweaked pages/new pages, though!

Graphing ordered pairs should stimulate got been a review for ALL of my students, but I constitute that many of my students had misconceptions close how to genuinely become close graphing points. It was of import that all of my students demonstrate mastery amongst the coordinate airplane earlier nosotros moved on to whatsoever novel material! This foldable is a repeat from in conclusion year.

The parts of the coordinate airplane page is too a repeat. This twelvemonth was the rootage twelvemonth that I made my students accept a quiz over memorizing the parts of the coordinate plane.

I demand to create a ameliorate project of forcing my students to reference these ii pages when they grapple to shout out back the mechanics of graphing a point. Too often, I volition only jog their memory. I demand to brand them jog their ain retention yesteryear looking inwards their notes.

Next, nosotros defined "Relation" amongst a frayer model.

This foldable on representing relations is a repeat from in conclusion year, but I simplified the within H5N1 LOT. I too made all of the examples correspond the SAME relation.

Inside of foldable:

In the future, I would definitely pre-print the coordinate plane!

Once nosotros had defined a relation, nosotros could define a component every bit a specific type of relation. I definitely honey the Frayer Model!

This page was a novel improver this year! In the past, I've e'er wanted my students to justify why a relation was or was non a function. I would larn frustrated when students would only state component or non a component without whatsoever explanation. This year, I genuinely decided to model or my students how to write their justification sentences. As we've been reviewing for the EOI these yesteryear few weeks, my students are all the same answering amongst justifications. Yay!

The cheque boxes arrive seem a piddling less scary, I think.

I used the same carte du jour kind this twelvemonth that I've used since I started teaching. But, instead of having the students kind the cards on ane page, they had to kind them on ii split pages. This gave them lots as well as lots of room to exercise writing justification sentences for each relation. Smart, huh?

I'm definitely going to cash inwards one's chips along this ready for adjacent year! I demand to add together a specific page inwards our notes close using the vertical business test, though. My kiddos all the same larn super confused close it.

Last year's DIXROY became this year's DIXIROYD thank yous to a comment left inwards the suggestions.

Notice how I made my students write to a greater extent than justification sentences close whether the relation was or was non a function! Practice, practice, practice!

Independent as well as Dependent Variable Notes:

I all the same don't experience similar I've come upwards up amongst a fool-proof agency of demonstrating the departure betwixt independent as well as theme variables.

We got out the component machines as well as the giant coordinate airplane over again this year. Same notes every bit in conclusion year.

Functions Spread:

This page was a novel addition. My students grapple amongst remembering how to evaluate a component from a graph. In the past, we've never taken notes over it before. I'm non inwards honey amongst these notes, but they're a definite stride upwards from the no notes over this subject from the previous 2 years.
