Description
This is a great activity to help your students differentiate between linear functions and exponential functions. I have included 24 cards and an answer key. Students will sort the cards into two piles: linear and exponential. The types of problem included are tables, graphs, and equations. Use this activity as independent practice, a group competition game, or as a math center! Enjoy!

Great resource, my students loved it! Thank you so much!
The sorting cards were great for a small groupwork assignment for my class. I made a template with a placeholder for Linear Functions and Exponential Functions so the students had somewhere to put the cards down to help them organize them a little more. Students had some trouble with some of the tables but they included a good mix of positive and negative integers, decimals, and fractions
Great resource for introducing exponential functions and comparing them to linear.
Great resource! Thank you!
Great! Thank you!
It was great! My students got in groups and cut out the cards and glued them onto papers to hang round the room!
This worked very well with my low level learners with one exception: The function f(x)= 1/2 ^ x needs parenthesis around the 1/2 to be exponential. Otherwise raising 1 to the x power and dividing by 2 is linear. If you fix this, please let me know so I can print the corrected card.
My 8th graders enjoyed this activity! It was very engaging! Thank you so much!
