One of the major focus areas in eighth grade Pre-Algebra is understanding functional relationships. Nevada Academic Content Standard 8.F.B.4 states that students will be able to "Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from two (x,y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph. Interpret the rate of change and initial value of a linear function in terms of the situation it models, and in terms of its graph or a table of values.
Having their own whiteboards to compare functions in both table and graph form will allow my students to continue working on our lessons from class when they are at home. They can use the blank side for their tables, equations, and calculations, and the grid side for their graphs.
Our school provides them with chromebooks but many of them don't have headphones to block out the noise and their own school supplies.
