This project requires students to inquire about polynomial functions so that they can make a poster containing 4 graphs that satisfy very unique behaviors. This project creates a synergy of understanding for all of the following topics: *End Behavior as x goes to infinity and negative infinity *Even and Odd Degree Functions *Increasing and Decreasing Intervals *Local Minimum and Maximum *Domain and Range *X Intercept and Bounce Points *Is a Function Even, Odd, or Neither *Rational and Irrational

Students will create 2 reports for this project: The first is a situation where the probability can be calculated. Examples include: *What are the chances of guessing on a 4 question multiple choice test (with possible answers a, b ,c, and d) and getting 0 right? *If I pressed 20 piano keys what are the chances of 3 C#’s? The second is a situation where the probability is defined empirically and the student must lookup the value. Examples include: *What percentage of flights end in a plane cras

This is a project that you could give to a student in an Algebra 2 or PreCalculus class who is also into graphic design. Rational functions take on so many interesting shapes that they are obvious candidates to be turned into art. Inside this project are 6 designs made by students ranging from excellent to average work. One great plus of letting student do this project is that you get some awesome custom decorations to add to your class.

This bundle contains 3 lessons and a unit project. Lesson 1: Students will be able to compare and contrast a population and a sample. Students will be able to distinguish between a parameter and a statistic. Students will know the difference between descriptive and inferential statistics. Lesson 2: Students will distinguish between qualitative and quantitative data Students will be able to classify a data set as either nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio. Lesson 3: Students will be a

This actually contains 7 files to help your students firm up their vocab and concept understanding for a Quadratic Functions Unit. There are two types of activities. The first is a read aloud activity with the vocab.(Usually a warmup activity) Simply display the power point and then call on a student to read up to the word that is blocked off. See if the student can guess the word. If they can’t, call on someone else. Students have to pay close attention because you could call on anyone. It is

Students often find the concept of inverse trig functions confusing. Inverse cosine is only defined in Quadrants 1 and 2 and Inverse Sin is only defined in Quadrants 1 and 4. However, it is possible to find angles that work for these inverse trig functions in all 4 quadrants. This worksheet forces students to find all 4 reference angles and to realize that the absolute value of their sin and cosine are exactly the same in all cases. This is the free version. In the future look for this to be co

In this project students are asked to select a rectangular wall space in the school and make 3 design proposals using conic sections including parabola, ellipse, and hyperbola. There are different degrees of difficulty available for students to choose from and they are to incorporate aspects of the conic sections into the design. These include directix lines, foci, and asymptotes. The higher the degree of difficulty described then higher the scoring for the project. Students must show and descr

This project can be used as a Unit 1 project for either a regular or an AP Stats course. It should take (at least 2) periods to complete. This is at the discretion of the teacher. Basic Activity Outline:In this project students will begin with a worksheet. The sheet includes: *4 topics *4 (2x4 tables) Students are to fill in 2 data sets for each level of measurement (Nominal, Ordinal, Interval, Ratio) Upon completion of the worksheet students will:*Form groups *Select Topics *Create a p

This is a simple twist on a common trigonometry assignment. Instead of having students fill out a unit circle on paper turn it into an event and have students draw the unit circle from memory on the board in front of their peers. This adds an extra element to the knowledge and confidence level needed to complete the task. Simply print the scoring sheet I included and record any errors when the student finishes and you can then punch the scores back into the spreadsheet. The grade will automatica

In this technology lab students will create calculators to solve problems involving linear functions. It is broken down into 4 parts. Part 1: Given coefficients A, B , and C of a linear function in standard form solve for the slope and x and y intercepts. Part 2: Given 2 points solve for the slope and the x and y intercepts. Part 3: Given 2 points and slope solve for A ,B, C. There is also a bonus/challenge question. For the teacher I will include a fully solved Excel file. Also I have a file of
