Common Misconceptions to Look Out For

• Mixing up the slope (m) and y-intercept (b)
• Confusing point-slope, standard, and slope-intercept form when writing equations

Differentiation Tips

• Scaffolding: Begin with slope-intercept form, then move to point-slope form and standard form, and finally incorporate real-life word problems.
• Advanced Learners: Challenge students to convert between different forms of linear equations and interpret the meaning of slope and intercepts in contextual problems.
