Full course description
Welcome to the Line through Two Points Lesson!
The Line through Two Points lesson uses a temperature conversion problem to learn how to find the slope and y-intercept of a linear function when given the coordinates of two points. In this lesson library, you will find diverse representations of this lesson in the form of engaging lesson storyboards with cartoon characters prepared by teachers from around the world. You will also have the opportunity to reflect on these lesson representations by adding annotations, reviewing annotations contributed by other teachers, and starting a discussion thread.
