=Stage 2 Determine Acceptable Evidence.=

Role: As a couple of high school students trying to make a little extra money, you need to figure out how many burgers and slices of cheese to order Audience: Owner of Bob's Country Market. Situation: The two of you are working at the town's local market. The owner comes to you because he wants to branch out his market to now include a fast food section. He has given you the task of researching the cost of burgers and cheese slices from all the different beef companies. Each company has an intial fee and a different linear rate of how much they charge. The owner wants you find beef companies that will give the market the most burgers for the cheapest price. The same goes for cheese slices, along with the different types of cheese: cheddar, american, swiss; since the owner wants the customer to have a varitey of choices. Product/Presentation: An iMovie will be the product you use to present your findings. There will also be an oral presentation on your iMovie stating why you should order as much product as you do. Standards (criteria from both rubrics): Product (iMovie) teamwork, research, concept, digital presence, length, graphs. Oral Presentation: attire, content, enthusiasm, preparedness, clearly spoken, eye contact. || •test: Covers all 3 quiz topics •ComicLife Ad: create an advertisment using comic life, for a new linear equation and inequalities textbook, that talks about the graphing of linear equations and inequalities. || •Skills check list for students to check off when they have successfully understood the material •Pre-test one week before the real test so the students can get a sense of what is coming on the real test || =Assessment Task Blue Print=
 * Performance Task (Summary in G.R.A.S.P.S. form): **(T)** ||
 * Goal: Order as many burgers and slices of cheese that doesn't exceed the price limit.
 * Other Evidence (quizzes, test, prompts, observations, dialogues, work sample, etc.):**
 * Other Evidence **(OE)** ||
 * •3 quizzes worth 15 pts: 1. definitions: slope, x and y-intercepts, dependent and independent variables; terminology: label the parts of the y-intercept formula m as slope and b as y-intercept 2. solving linear equations, be able to graph linear equations, while using the graphs to solve the equations 4. solving inequalities, be able to graph inequalities, and use the graph to solve the inequalities.

 * Being in high school is hard enough, throwing a job on top of that just makes life difficult. Now it just got worse. Your boss at Bob's Country Market just found out you had taken a course in linear equations and inequalities: where you learned how to solve linear equations and inequalites along with graphing them. He wants to do some research on hamburgers and different kinds of cheese. Why you ask? The owner wants to expand the market to now include a fast food section. He has given you the task of researching the cost of burgers and cheese slices from all the different beef and cheese companies. Each company has an intial fee and a different linear rate of how much they charge. The owner wants you find beef companies that will give the market the most burgers for the cheapest price. The same goes for cheese slices, along with the different types of cheese: cheddar, american, swiss; since the owner wants the customer to have a varitey of choices. He wants you to make a short 5-10 minute iMovie video on your findings; consequently, he is going on vacation just when the paychecks are suppose to come out and he will not be around when you finish your research. The iMovies will give him something to watch on the plane ride down to Jamaica. When he comes back, he wants an oral presentation of what you believe would be the best choice for the market. Both of these should include terms, definitions, and methods for solving linear equations and inequalities, including graphs, you have learned. SO don't just sit there, get to work; because did he mention your jobs are riding on this? ||
