New Y=Mx+B Foldable

Yesterday, I survive introduced my Algebra 1 students to y = mx + b.  I receive got had several students who receive got been actually anxious to larn to this role of the chapter.  These are students who are taking Algebra 1 for the 2nd fourth dimension or receive got moved inward from around other schoolhouse district.  Most of my students, however, receive got never seen this earlier inward their lives.

Last Saturday, equally I was "teaching" Sabbatum School, I came upwards alongside the persuasion for this foldable.  I country "teaching" because all I actually did was assist ane pupil alongside EOI practise questions too instruct 2 other students how to create KenKen puzzles.  (And, if you lot haven't signed upwards for the KenKen teachers program, you lot totally should.  They volition email you lot a ton of novel puzzles each week!  I similar to exercise these for early on finishers or that class that finishes x minutes faster than all of your other classes.  It is peachy mental math practise which is something my students definitely need.  And, it's edifice their critical thinking skills.  All the students I receive got done them alongside too thence far receive got loved them.  I've establish that if I demonstrate my kids this three infinitesimal video, they tin forcefulness out consummate these puzzles alongside petty assistance.  I ever commencement them off on 3 X 3 puzzles, too they volition allow you lot know when they are create to larn upwards to a larger puzzle!)   

I desire to country that this foldable is original.  But, I too thence rarely come upwards up alongside something that is completely my own.  So if it's non master copy too you lot came upwards alongside this, delight allow me know too thence I tin forcefulness out link dorsum to a source.

Slope Intercept Foldable
y = mx + b
y equals mx addition b

y=mx+b Foldable

Slope Intercept Foldable alongside all Tabs Open
This is the actual coloring of newspaper I used.  I don't know why it didn't come upwards through inward all my pictures. 

I used this lesson equally an chance to circle dorsum ane time once to a greater extent than to independent too theme variables. 

Most of my students are soundless struggling alongside converting equations into Slope Intercept Form.  So, we'll live working to a greater extent than on that today.

Here's a pdf of my foldable template.  It's non the well-nigh elegant template, exactly it worked.   This is sized to check inward our notebook sideways alongside extra room to write several sentences worth of notes.  If you lot are non doing interactive notebooks, I would advise making it slightly larger too thence you lot volition receive got to a greater extent than infinite to write inside.

I soundless ask to receive got a motion painting of it within our notebook alongside the notes to share.
