Graphing Linear Relationships
Students plot points from tables of values to graph linear relationships on a Cartesian plane.
Key Questions
- How does a graph visually represent a linear relationship?
- Explain the importance of correctly labelling axes and plotting points.
- Predict the shape of a graph given a linear rule.

5E Model
The 5E Model structures lessons through five phases (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate), guiding students from curiosity to deep understanding through inquiry-based learning.
unit plannerMath Unit
Plan a multi-week math unit with conceptual coherence: from building number sense and procedural fluency to applying skills in context and developing mathematical reasoning across a connected sequence of lessons.
rubricMath Rubric
Build a math rubric that assesses problem-solving, mathematical reasoning, and communication alongside procedural accuracy, giving students feedback on how they think, not just whether they got the right answer.
