Using Apps, GraCalc & Educreations, to Manually Graph Linear Equations

You will:

1. View the t-chart tutorial.
2. Change the values from t-chart to co-ordinate points.
3. Use GraCalc app to check your points.
4. Use Educreations to graph your points (one equation per page)
5. Save your graph video and send the link to your teacher.

The following video demonstrates how to use the APP, Free GraCalc, to graph equations. Our purpose for finding these values is to check the values you found and also to see that your graph looks as it should.
This video shows the app with an iPod Touch, but the interface is the same on an iPad.

Educreations is a free site which provides a digital writing surfaces which include plain, lined, graph, and coordinate plane paper. The following tutorial on graphing a linear equation was recorded on that APP. the iPad version has tools not available on the online version.

This lesson can be done using a computer and educreations.com as your video producer, but there is no graph paper available. I would suggest providing students with a picture of the grid which can be added to each page as the background.

Educreations also has other tutorials which can be viewed.

Additional APPs for math help might be Khan Academy Algeba 1 which is free. There may be a textbook app to go along with a school text. Hands-On 1 Lite and Algebra Explained Lite are 2 apps which have a cost. 

There are non-APP helps on YouTube and here on Sophia. Remember Sophia's lessons are rated by teachers for accuracy.
