Unit Outcome:
Simplify rational expressions.
Graph rational functions.
Identify graphs and equations as different types of functions.
Lesson Outcomes:
TLW understand that rational expressions are closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication,
and division, meaning that:
A rational expression plus a rational expression is a rational expression.
A rational expression minus a rational expression is a rational expression.
A rational expression times a rational expression is a rational expression.
A rational expression divided by a rational expression is a rational expression.
TLW determine the LCM of polynomials.
TLW add and subtract rational expressions.
Assessment:
I will frequently ask my students if they are understanding the material. This will determine if I need
to go slower or faster in my instruction. I will later assign a homework assignment to see how well
they can simplify the rational expressions.
Resources/Materials Required:
Note Packets
Pen/Pencil
Homework assignment
Stratton 2
Introduction:
I will start the class by taking attendance. In the morning we have the Pledge of Allegiance, so I
have a couple of minutes to do attendance quick. I will also have a couple of warm-up questions on
the board. I will them ask for any questions on the homework assignment from yesterday.
Guided Study: They now have their note packet to refer back to. They can use this to help
them through he homework problems.
Homework: (when appropriate)
I will assign a worksheet for them to practice adding and subtracting rational expressions.
Closure:
I will ask if they have any questions on the lesson or about the homework.
