This series introduces the linear functions of Year 8 step by step. Starting from the concept of a function, learners practise completing tables of values, plotting points and recognising the graph of a linear function as a straight line.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGuiding question:\u003c\/strong\u003e How do we describe, draw and interpret linear relationships with the rule y = m*x + b?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 differentiated worksheets with required and optional tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull answer keys with expected solutions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA 7-slide colour presentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA detailed, step-by-step lesson plan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrint \u0026amp; digital — editable and ready to use, no prep required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLearning objectives\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribing linear functions in the representations rule, table of values and graph and switching confidently between them.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterpreting the slope m as a constant rate of change and the y-intercept b as a starting value.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalculating the slope from two points with the formula m = (y2 - y1) \/ (x2 - x1) and drawing lines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetermining the roots of linear functions and the intersection points of two lines by calculation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModelling real situations with linear functions, interpreting results and assessing the limits of the model.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTopics covered (5 worksheets)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat are linear functions?
