Lesson plan
Powerpoint
Mini assessment – either to be done at the end of the lesson or for homework.
The aims of this Mini-assessment are to get a sense of
• how readily students see a line as a set of points
• how readily they determine other points on the line (and what methods they use).
Can students find other points?
What sort of points do they find (eg ‘distant’ points, or points with fractional or negative coordinates)?
What methods do they use (eg a ‘step by step’ approach, or a general rule)? |
