Curated OER
Graphing Rational Functions
Learners complete an activity, included, of the information on asymptotes and intercepts. They also solve and complete eight questions on graphing rational functions, file included. Finally, pupils summarize vertical asymptotes,...
Curated OER
Vertex and Factored Form of Quadratic Functions
Students graph quadratic equations. In this algebra lesson, students solve quadratic equations by factoring. They identify the end behavior of the graph.
Curated OER
Comparing Exponential and Power Functions
Young scholars compare and contrast exponential and power functions. In this precalculus lesson, students identify the value of x, using the graph as a visual. They compare functions with base of greater than one, to base of less than one.
Curated OER
Trains in Motion
Students compare two object as they find the distance between them. In this geometry lesson, students create an equation describing the distance of time as a function. They use the navigator to observe the distance.
Alabama Learning Exchange

Exploring Quadratics in Factored Form
Young mathematicians explore quadratics equations in this lesson. They investigate the relationship between the standard form and factored form of quadratic equations. Learners then examine the relationship between the factoring form of...
Curated OER
The Factor Connection
Pupils investigate the connection between factors, zeros, and graphs of quadratic functions. The lesson plan requires the TI-nspire handheld.
Curated OER
Find Minimum and Maximum
Learners engage in a lesson about finding the values of different graphs written in the vertex form. They rewrite each quadratic equation in vertex form while graphing the equation with the visual display of a parabola that matches the...
Curated OER
Using Symmetry to Find the Vertex of a Parabola
Learners engage in a lesson that is about finding the vertex of a parabola while using symmetry. They use the symmetry to find out where the two lines meet. The line is displayed with the help of a graphing calculator. The lesson...
