G9 Linear Patterns Assessment Guide

All grades are formative until a date set a few weeks prior to the end of the course. Continued learning is encouraged. Resources for continued learning and ongoing assessment are in the second table below. Click ‘how to upgrade’.

How to upgrade

# Type Description Proficiency
i Numeracy number patterns Continue number patterns given at least two, not necessarily consecutive, terms Emg, Dev, Prf
ii Numeracy Cartesian plane Use coordinates to calculate horizontal and vertical distances. Determine and simplify the rise/run ratio. Emg, Dev, Prf,
iii Cartesian plane (test) Analyse line segments on the Cartesian plane Emg, Dev, Prf
iv Table/formula to graph (test) Plot linear patterns beginning with a table or a formula Emg, Dev, Prf, Ext
v Using the formula (test) Determine the formula from a graphed linear pattern Emg, Dev, Prf, Ext
vi Project – communication Apply linear interpolation/extrapolation to a new context Emg, Dev, Prf, Ext
vii Project – reasoning Use technology Emg, Dev, Prf, Ext
viii Classwork Understanding and reasoning Emg, Dev, Prf, Ext

‘Proficient’ is the goal. Students who reach proficiency in content and competencies can focus on building on and extending their knowledge in their next math course. With continued math study students will begin to use this math flexibly, fluently, creatively, by their own initiative and in a variety of new contexts. This is ‘extending’ knowledge. Some students may already be demonstrating extending knowledge.
