This algebra unit on an introduction to linear functions contains 254 pages and 114 google slides of material specifically designed for students with special learning needs, especially autism who are in middle and high school.

 

This unit covers:

  • Understanding a function machine
  • Reading and filling out function tables
  • Slope review
  • Identify graphs that have linear functions
  • Reading and interpreting simple linear function graphs

 

This is an INTRODUCTION to reading function tables, graphs, and slopes. The advanced unit goes more into calculations and interpreting tables, graphs, and slopes.

 

This unit addresses some of the main concepts when it comes to linear functions: function machines, function tables, function rules, linear functions, linear function graphs, relationships between variables, and even slope in a simplified but rigorous way for students with diverse learning needs to make meaningful and authentic connections to the material.

 

There are MANY opportunities for students to engage in repeated information on these very abstract and challenging concepts. This repetition helps students make connections to these concepts using a lot of real-life examples.

 

In addition, many of the activities and assessments include more than one version, suggestions for differentiation, and options for presentation.

*****************************************************************************

Much of what I have learned about curriculum development is incorporated into these units. For example, do not be afraid of repetition. It is critical that students with significant disabilities get to experience material over several days to be able to fully assimilate what is being taught. Also, adding visual supports to your printables and class activities helps students be able to pay more attention to the content you are presenting rather than the mechanics of what is expected. Finally, ask questions. Good questions!! Regardless of the material, if we can ask students good questions it will push them to think more deeply than before.
