Reply To: Lesson 5-4: Question

[Katrina van Lierop]

I want to do the popcorn problem with the primary goal of understanding changing rates and their connection to graphical models, equations and tables of values. The future goal would be to understand the meaning of the point of intersection in a linear system.

possible student representations:

1- create tables of values

2 – use unit rates

3 – graph it(although unlikely)

4 – Additive Stategy

5 – create pattern rules then solve each

This will be a great activity to push students to make multple connections with the various representations of linear relations
