After learning all the methods for solving Quadratic Equations, I like to use this resource to help students determine which method is appropriate for the given equation.
This fun Color Splash scavenger hunt contains 15 quadratic equations. Some can be solved using square roots, some can be solved by factoring, and some contain irrational solutions requiring the Quadratic Formula or completing the square. This activity is for review after students are familiar with all the methods for solving quadratic equations. Included in this activity is a flowchart for helping students choose an appropriate method. This activity includes an answer key for teachers and a reco
This flowchart is designed to help students choose an appropriate method of solving a quadratic equation. This file is a PowerPoint and completely EDITABLE.
This graphic organizer covers simplifying square roots, solving quadratic equations by using inverse operations, solving by factoring, and solving with the quadratic formula. I use this as a review activity. A student version and teacher (filled in)version are included.
These guided notes are for solving quadratic equations by completing the square with a = 1. There is a beautiful PowerPoint to go with these guided notes in my store.
