Use this series of activities to introduce learners to graphing functions. They graph both linear and quadratic equations by hand and with a Graph Sketcher Tool. Several imbedded links and handouts are included in the lesson.

You have to love lessons that foster problem solving strategies. This one has upper graders devise and employ their own strategy to solve given problems after they have used classics like guess/check, substitution, make a table, and look...

Help your math class "get the picture" in a quadratic equation lesson that integrates digital photography. Individuals take pictures to help them model the shape of an item or situation using algebraic equations. They discover how to...

Graph inequalities and discuss the difference in their slopes. Learners observe rate of change as they compare linear, quadratic, and cubic functions.

Use context to explain the importance of the key features of a graph. When context is introduced, the domain and range have meaning, which enhances understanding. Pupils use application questions to explore the key features of the graph...

Throw some logic into quadratics and see if learners can match a vague graph to multiple equations. Young mathematicians must look at quadrant location, vertices, and intercepts to best match the graph to one or more equations. 

To the point and deeper thinking are both types of questions included in the worksheet. Begin the practice of solving quadratics and then finish with five questions asking quadratic and exponential application problems. 

Need a real scenario to compare functions? This lesson has it all! Through application, individuals model using different types of functions. They analyze each in terms of the context using the key features of the graphs. 

Determine the area of a square with quadratics. Pupils use the interactive to visualize the process of completing the square. Scholars build a square area model to represent a quadratic expression then determine the amount that...

Hats off to those learning about the graphs of functions. Individuals use an interactive to plot points representing profits for a hat business. They identify a quadratic equation to represent this function and answer challenge questions...

Travel back to medieval time where learning is just a stone's throw away! A video introduction shows a trebuchet (catapult-like machine) as it launches a rock into a lake. Learners use their quadratic modeling skills to predict the...

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. In the case of the blob, that reaction is a trip several feet in the air! Learners begin by watching the world-record blob jump. They then analyze the flight of the person using...

In this algebra worksheet, students solve 10 fill in the blank problems where they use the quadratic formula to solve each quadratic equation.

For this quadratic formula worksheet, students solve quadratic equations. They use the discriminant to determine the solution or solutions to the problem. This one-page worksheet contains

Learnerss engage in a study of quadratic functions and how the coefficient of x^2 has on the graph of it. They study the quadratic function for review with the help of index cards. The lesson includes a resource link to align the it with...

In this quadratic formula worksheet, students use the quadratic formula to solve equations. This one-page worksheet contains ten problems.

In this quadratic equations instructional activity, 9th graders solve 10 different problems that include various quadratic equations. First, they factor out the equation and set it to zero. Then, students solve each factor and check...

In this quadratics learning exercise, students answer 8 multiple choice questions that involve solving quadratic equations to find solutions or roots.

In this math worksheet, students solve problems in the form of quadratic equations after translating into expressions from words.

In this algebra two worksheet, students solve twenty-five problems in test format.  The worksheet covers radicals, complex numbers, and finding roots of quadratics.

In this Algebra II learning exercise, 11th graders translate verbal sentences into quadratic equations and solve the resulting equation.  The one page learning exercise contains thirteen questions.  Answers...
