Student Instructions
DIRECTIONS:
> Click the button.
> PAGE 1 ~ GRAPHING HORIZONTAL & VERTICAL LINES: Select THREE equations from the horizontal and vertical line columns to graph on the coordinate plane. Use the
to color in your SIX equations (with a different color for each) and then the
button to graph your line (using the same color as its matching equation).
> PAGE 2 ~ GRAPHING SLOPE-INTERCEPT & STANDARD FORM: Same as PAGE 1 except you are graphing equations in slope-intercept and standard forms. STARS ARE LINKED WITH TUTORIALS AND EVIL EMOJI CHALLENGE EQUATIONS ARE AVAILABLE AS WELL!
> PAGE 3 ~ GRAPHING SYSTEMS OF EQUATIONS: Same as PAGES 1 and 2 except you are graphing systems of linear equations. Select three linear systems for a total of SIX equations.
> PAGE 4 ~ WORKSPACE: Use this area to show your work as needed (graphing standard form equations by converting or finding intercepts). You can use the
,
,
, and/or
/
tools in order to show your work.
> PAGE 5 ~ SPOTLIGHT SHOWCASE: Color in the spaces between your graphed lines to simulate the look of stained glass on ONE of your coordinate planes. Take a screenshot of your stained glass graph from PAGE 1, 2 or 3 (Press Shift + Ctrl + Show windows , then click and drag) and place it in the square using the
/
buttons.
> Once you've completed each component of the project, click the
button.
> IMPORTANT: Please click the
button every five to ten minutes to prevent losing your work.
> Thank you!

Teacher Notes (not visible to students)
Students will display their knowledge and understanding with regard to graphing lines in a variety of different contexts (horizontal/vertical lines, slope-intercept/standard form, systems of linear equations). Furthermore, teachers can use the students' responses on the "Showcase" page in order to create a digital gallery walk task where peer-to-peer analysis and feedback could take place.
