Terms students can visualize on whiteboards
| Term | Visualization |
|---|---|
| Slope | m; ∆y/∆x; rise/run; rate of change; y-y/x-x |
| Rate of change | slope; m; ∆y/∆x; rise/run; y-y/x-x |
| Equation of the line in slope-intercept form | y=mx+b |
| Positive slope | diagonal line going up from left to right; puff puff positive; (students draw) |
| Negative slope | diagonal line going down from left to right; nice negative; (students draw) |
| Zero slope | horizontal line (students draw) |
| Undefined slope | vertical line (students draw) |
| y-intercept | b; initial value; students indicate it is on the y-axis |
| y-axis | (students trace) (vertical) |
| x-axis | (students trace) (horizontal) |
| Slope formula | ∆y/∆x; y-y/x-x |
| Similar triangles | triangles with proportional side lengths; (students draw) |
| Origin | (0, 0); (students show on grid) |
| Proportional relationship | y=mx; constant (K) as slope (m); goes through origin; straight line |
