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

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

In this technology lab students will create calculators to solve problems involving quadratic functions. It is broken down into 4 parts. Part 1: Given coefficients a, b , and c of a quadratic function in standard form solve for discriminant, 2 roots, and coordinates of the vertex. Part 2: Given a,h, and k from an equation in vertex form transform the equation to standard form and solve for a,b, and c. Part 3: Given a vertex and another point solve for the a value in the vertex form Part 4: Give
