CLEAR Grade 8 Model Lessons & Tools--Unit 4 (14)

Grade 8 Mathematics Unit 4 - Variables and Relations Model Lessons: 14
Overview: Students will investigate patterns through various activities and in an array of formats. These patterns will lead to the development of vocabulary (term and sequence) in arithmetic sequences. Throughout the lessons there are prompt questions to activate thought on variables and relations.
