Modelling with Linear Equations
Students will apply linear equations to model real-world situations involving constant rates of change.
Key Questions
- Construct a linear equation to represent a given real-world scenario.
- Analyze the meaning of the gradient and y-intercept in the context of a linear model.
- Predict future outcomes using a linear model and evaluate its reliability.

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.
