Math Junk

This project is designed for students in Algebra II or Pre-Calc who have just learned or reviewed: Functions, graphs, domain/range, intercepts, and critical points. This is a 2 day project in which students work in groups. Each group receives a function and one sentence explaining the real-world context of that function. They graph their given function using a graphing calculator or Desmos, and analyze the function. Once the function analysis is complete and satisfactory, students create a p

Two anchor charts for Transformations of Functions! First One:Basic landscape Shows the basic structure of a function and the transformation placements along with explanations of each transformations.Second One:Includes a smaller version of the basic structure and explanations from the first one.Includes color coded transformation placements for all major parent functions: linear, absolute value, quadratic, cubic, square root, cube root, reciprocal, and exponential.Back side: includes written re

This worksheet includes 16 different practice problems for evaluating functions. #1-8 ask students to evaluate at a given real integer value. #9-16 ask students to plug in negative numbers, variables, and expressions to functions. Answer Key (with work shown) included!This is a great packet to assign when you have a sub, a half day, when you're assessing skill levels in September, or when students need extra practice with this skill.

This viewfinder is a great tool to help you introduce the concept of domain and range to your students! Students cut out and label a paper viewfinder, and using provided graphs (already sized correctly) they are able to use their viewfinder to determine the domain and range. Creating and using the viewfinder helps students physically interact with the intervals, and grasp the differences between domain and range on the axis. Included in your purchase:Viewfinder template (both as a PDF and a Po

I don't have to tell you how important factoring is in Algebra and beyond! This is a concept students need. Unfortunately, it's also a skill many HS students don't have a strong grasp of. This packet will provide the practice students need. Answer key is included!!!This packet contains 45 factoring practice problems:Section A: 6 Greatest Common FactorSection B: 6 Difference of SquaresSection C: 6 Guess and CheckSection D: 6 AC MethodSection E: 12 Mixed Methods (Each polynomial can be factored u
