OBJECTIVE: [#To use intuitive ideas about rates of change to
sketch graphs for, and to match graphs to, given situations.
#To use intuitive ideas about rates of change to create stories
that can fit given graphs. #To extend understanding of graph
models to include new shapes. # To explore symbolic
representations for several graph models.] ACTIVITIES: Page

locations; #To use coordinates to specify directions and
distance; #To connect properties of geometric shapes, such as
parallel sides, to coordinate representations.]

OBJECTIVE: See 3-21 above. ACTIVITIES: Dot-to-Dot. Introduce
the dot-to dot project. Students are to create their object in
4 quadrants. NOTES:
- On a sheet of graph paper, subdivide into 4 quadrants.
- Design a picture to fit in all 4 quadrants. It must be a picture, no initials, no logos, no space aliens.
- You have to plan ahead because the picture must be drawn with 1 continuous line.
- You must change directions at each dot.
- There is a MINIMUM of 50 dots.
- Be sure to connect your dots as you draw and NUMBER them.
- Do not show it to your friends/neighbors at this time. They might have to reconstruct it.
HOMEWORK: Completed picture.
