Task 2: Demonstrating Essential Concepts
03/26/2025
A. Identify the following from a unit of study:
- Topic: Graphing Linear Equations in Slope Intercept Form
- Essential Concept: How to correctly graph linear equations
in slope intercept form.
B. Explain how the essential concept, skill, or task from
part A will be demonstrated in your e-learning activity
by doing the following:
1. Identify the strategy (e.g., direct instruction, think-
alouds/think- alongs, worked examples, lectures, share
sessions) you will use to demonstrate the essential
concept, skill, or task from part A.
- Strategy: (GRR) Gradual Release of Responsibility (I Do, We Do, You
Do)
a. Explain how you will use the strategy from part B1 to
demonstrate the concept, skill, or task from part A.
- I do: I will demonstrate how to graph linear equations step by step
both physically and online using Desmos. I will also explain my
thought process out loud in person or I will also record a video of
how to do it as well. For example, “First you have to identify the y-
intercept and plot it on the y-axis, next, use the slope to move up or
down first using the top number, then to the right or left using the
bottom number. We call this Rise over Run.”
- We do: Students will then follow along with a guided example
provided by me either in person, live on zoom, or a recorded video. I
will provide this example by using Desmos and the students will
complete the step alongside me while I provide support.
You do: Students will be given a new example for them to work on
independently using Desmos. Then they will explain their process on
either flip or google docs.
2. Explain how you will use digital tools to
demonstrate the essential concept, skill, or task from
part A in an online or hybrid learning environment.
