The lesson started with watching a "Jake the Peg" video

media type="youtube" key="GS-itkO9ia8" height="341" width="416" We used pictures to show the pattern. On the board Mr Radonich drew Jake. Then he drew Jake's older sister Meg. Meg had 3 eyes and four legs. Then he drew some more of Jakes family. We had to draw the rest of the pictures of Jake's family,

and a table,

coordinates,

and finally a rule.

When we had finished Mr Radonich drew the medusa family on the board.

Again we finished off drawing members of the Medusa family then a table,

coordinates,

And finally a rule. We had to draw graphs for both families for homework.
