This is a great experiment/activity in which see a visual aspect of real life quadratic equations. Students love to launch rockets and watch what happens. Once completed and discussed there is a worksheet to follow which they learn terminology such as vertex, the axis of symmetry, and maximum while using their TI-calculator.
I love doing different activities with my students. This one helps them practice writing equations from two points using slope-intercept form and or point slope form.
This Homework worksheet goes along with Matching Inequality Activity. You can use it on its own or with the activity. It is great practice no matter what. You can use both worksheets as practice for one child or you can give half the class one and the other half the other.
I use this with my Freshmen as interactive notes to put in their Notebooks I check every Chapter. This is a good way to teach graphing and introduce the Cartesian Plane. Then I would do a cut & paste activity with them. My students love doing activities rather than skill and drill.
I give this to my students when I am teaching them how to use a graphing calculator. TI put this in their notebook and they are able to look at it as a reference.
