2 LINEARITY Take a few moments and consider how you d respond: What are the important ideas for understanding linear relationships? What are the fundamental notions behind linearity? What are the main assumptions of linear models?

3 LINEARITY Take a few moments and consider how you d respond: What are the important ideas for understanding linear relationships? What are the fundamental notions behind linearity? What are the main assumptions of linear models? What are common points of confusion for students?

4 BUCKET If a basketball team scores points in the first half, how many do they score in the second? If one state gets senators, how many do other states get? If someone s salary is $, in January, how much is received in other months? If a state with million people has five congressmen, how many should a state with million people have?

5 VOCABULARY Slope Rate of Change How are these ideas intuitive for understanding linearity? How are these helpful for relating to the numerical value? How could these words be confusing for students? Teuscher and Reys () give evidence that students misunderstand these two ideas, and have difficulties conceptualizing and connecting them.

7 ITERATION Stage Number = Stage Number = Stage Number = B B D E D E A F C F C

8 PARTITION AND ITERATION: MODELING LINEARITY Partition Division Iteration Multiplication These basic ideas match the top broad categories behind understanding linear assumptions: namely, equal partitions and constant repetition (bucket analogy). If these represent two fundamental concepts for linearity, we can intentionally point students to see these connections in linear relationships.
