Description
This Understanding Functions unit introduces students to the foundational concepts of functions and how they are represented, interpreted, and analyzed in Algebra 1.
The unit is intentionally designed for the average student, with lessons that focus on one concept at a time, gradually increase in difficulty, and spiral key ideas throughout the unit to build fluency and confidence.
Each lesson includes guided notes paired with aligned independent practice, making this unit easy to implement in whole-group instruction, stations, or independent work.
📚 Topics Covered
- Introduction to functions
- Evaluating functions algebraically, graphically, and using tables
- Average rate of change
- Representing solution sets on a number line (Inequality review and interval notation)
- Increasing, decreasing, and constant intervals
- Positive and negative intervals
- Domain and range
✨ What’s Included
- Student-friendly guided notes
- Independent practice aligned directly to each lesson
- Answer keys for all included activities
📌 What's coming (Will be added in future updates)
- Ready-to-use presentation slides
- Student-friendly video lessons to support flipped and asynchronous learning
- Quizzes and exams
- Additional Algebra 1 units
