State Standards and/or District Requirements
State Standards
Specific Number: A1.1.1.3.1 A1.1.1.5.1		Exact Wording: Simplify/evaluate expressions involving properties/laws of exponents, roots and/or absolute value to solve problems (exponents should be integers from -10 to 10). Add, subtract and/or multiply polynomial expressions (express answers in simplest form – nothing larger than a binomial multiplied by a trinomial).
Instructional Elements
Goal for Understanding: Students will identify expressions, term and coefficients and compare algebraic expressions.
Instructional Objective Statement:
Student Behaviors Students will identify the terms and coefficients of an expression. Students will compare algebraic expressions	Sources of Evidence Discussion Problems and examples within the textbook			Criteria for Evaluation Eighty percent of the students are arriving to the correct answers through the discussion Students will answer questions through Plickers to a ninety percent accuracy. Exit ticket is handed in by each student; students have work shown to a ninety degree accuracy.
Teaching to the Objective (include Differentiation)
Estimated Time 20 minutes 10 minutes 10 minutes 10 minutes 15 minutes 15 minutes 10 minutes	Introduction/Motivation/Prior Knowledge: Review previous lesson (or test review) How is a relationship defined? Who has a cell phone in the class? Whose parents have cell phones? In the average household you can determine the amount of cell phones per household in an expression form. Since households have the same amount of cell phones as parents and children, you can define the relationship as c + 2. Where c stands for the amount of children and the 2 is for the two parents. Developmental Activities: Go over new vocabulary words on Smartboard. Notes are fill in the blank in a consumable textbook. The notes are for all students to read. Notes on identifying terms and coefficients within. Notes are fill in the blanks in a consumable textbook. The notes are large for all students to read. Notes on comparing algebraic expressions using less than or greater than signs. The notes are large for all students to read. Group work for examples. Directions and example problems are written on the board and given orally. Assessment: Assign a few problems for students to do individually using Plickers. The students will hold up their answers on a card. The answers will be checked through a Smartphone. Directions are written on the board and given orally. Students are ninety percent accurate. Closure: Exit ticket with directions included at the top of the page. Students have to compare the algebraic expressions. Directions will also be read orally. Exit ticket will be checked after students have left.
Follow-up: Selected problems in the textbook.
