Students explore the concept of slope.  In this Algebra I lesson, students investigate the definition of slope as rise over run or change in y compared to change in x.  The lesson includes a real-world problem in which the...

In this linear equations instructional activity, students observe a graphed line on a coordinate plane. From their observations, they write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the depicted line. This four page instructional...

Students define the slope of a line as rate of change. They investigate positive, negative, zero, or undefined slope using a graphing calculator. They determine the slope of a line when given the equation of the line.

Students calculate the slope of a line. In this algebra lesson, students graph a line using the slope and y-intercepts. They define the steepness of the line using the slope.
