The graph above is the graoh from today classwork. It includes answer on the question:
1) Draw a line of best fit
2)Find the slope and y-intercept
3) Come up with a story to describe this graph
4) Before graphing, what would you hypothesis have been?

After working on the "Do Now" we worked on our Benchmarks and recieved help if we needed any.

So the day starts off with the usual “do now” and Mr. Rochester says that the questions will be just like the benchmark. Then after the kids decide to quiet down he goes around and observes some kids and how they are doing with the “do now” and while he was doing that Mr. Lehmann comes in to discuss matters about calculators and ordering them. After he finishes talking to Mr. Lehmann he waits a few minutes and then explains the “do now”. Now he has explained the answers for us and says that to do something good for the benchmark we need common sense…and Ozzie was singing Taylor Swift’s “Tear Drops on my Guitar”. Now after Ozzie sings, Mr. Rochester tells us to upload the classwork and one graph from our benchmark and that we can work on it now. Soon he decides to example a graph and explains “the line of best fit”.

all we did on march 13, 2008 was we did a graph and took notes. We talked about slope and y- intercept. we did some example. We also talking about what we doing for our benchmark.

IN todays class we learned how to find the slope. The slope is how you get from one point to the next
Example: Rise/Run

Y2-Y1/X2-X1

Example: 2,7
3,9
rise2/run 1


Example: 4,11
1,5 rise/run = Down 6/ left 3


-6/-3=2

Emily Maggiano SCRIBE 3-10-08 Monday

In class we first started with a journal which we were to find the formula used for the x & y input and output of each chart. Then we graphed the coordinates on the same graph using "Sketchpad". If we finished that in class we were to complete a worksheet using similar problems from the journal and graph them as well on a separate page using "Sketchpad." We were told our benchmark in class and that a proposal is due 3-12-08.
