In this activity, students are given a bingo board with various graphs sketched. They are also given 22 statements such as f ' (a) = 0 and
f "(a) > 0. This means they are looking for a graph on the bingo board that has a zero slope and is concave up. They try to match the 25 graphs with 22 statements which means that there are 3 blank ones too.
This is a good activity to practice the concept of 1st derivative (increasing, decreasing, and 0 slope) as well as 2nd derivative (concave up, con
A jeopardy game of simple log problems, condensed and expanded logs, solve the logs, name the shift, reflection and inverse, and anything on logs. It is a jeopardy style review game and answer sheet is included as word doc
This game of bingo has 25 cards. Each student gets a card. There is also a sheet of questions with answers. You may want to cut these out in little strips and put in a hat to pick out the questions. Questions are:
1) given a quadratic equation find the vertex of the quadratic equation
2) given a definition find the word being described on your card
3) given the vertex, find the quadratic equation on your card
4) find the number on your card that corresponds to the problem asked.
Good way
Match an equation with its inverse. The restricted domains are not shown to make it harder!! Answer sheet included as well as a key. Good practice for making sure students can check if functions are inverses by solving for x.
Match the graph of the function with the function equation as well as the table of values for the function. 18 sets, 54 cards.
Suggest printing on card stock and laminating.
