problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to generate two patterns from rules and then graph them on the coordinate grid. Students first identify a point on the coordinate grid with one of the pairs of numbers from the patterns and then plot the rest of the points. Students may notice that the points on the graph are regularly spaced. They are invited to share this and other observations in the synthesis.
MLR8 Discussion Supports.
Display sentence frames to support partner discussion: “First, I _____ because . . .” and “I noticed _____ so I . . . .”
Advances: Speaking, Writing, Conversing, Representing
Action and Expression: Develop Expression and Communication.
Synthesis: Develop fluency with connecting rules, tables, and a coordinate grid to the same pattern. Provide access to blank or partially completed tables.

Activity Synthesis
“How did you decide where to place the points on the grid?” (I used the top row to decide how far over to go on the horizontal axis and the second rule to decide how far up to go on the vertical axis.)
Invite students to share completed graphs for parts A and B.
“How are the two graphs the same?” (There is a point at the bottom left,
\((0,0)\)
, on each. The points are regularly spaced and go up and to the right. They all lie at the intersection of gridlines.)
“How are the two graphs different?” (The numbers on the axes are different. The ones for partner B get bigger really quickly.)
