Rating

Mathematical goals
This lesson unit is intended to help you assess how well students are able to understand what the different algebraic forms of a quadratic function reveal about the properties of its graphical representation. In particular, the lesson will help you identify and help students who have the following difficulties:
Understanding how the factored form of the function can identify a graph's roots.Understanding how the completed square form of the function can identify a graph's maximum or minimum point.Understanding how the standard form of the function can identify a graph's intercept.

Before the lesson, students work individually on an assessment task that is designed to reveal their current understandings and difficulties. You then review their work and create questions for students to answer in order to improve their solutions.After a whole-class interactive introduction, students work in pairs on a collaborative discussion task in which they match quadratic graphs to their algebraic representation. As they do this, they begin to link different algebraic forms of a quadratic function to particular properties of its graph.At the end of the lesson there is a whole-class discussion.In a follow-up lesson students attempt to improve their original response to the assessment task.
Materials required
Each individual student will need two copies of the Quadratic Functions assessment task and a mini-whiteboard, pen, and eraser.Each pair of students will need Domino Cards 1 and Domino Cards 2, cut into ten ‘dominoes'.
Time needed
15 minutes before the lesson, a 95-minute lesson (or two shorter lessons), and 10 minutes in a follow-up lesson. Timings are approximate and will depend on the needs of the class.

The starters typically take 5 minutes or less to complete and provide students with a focused activity to start class. Feel free to use the starters as they are provided or adapt them to fit your units of study.

I provide students with a Science Starters answer sheet (quarter format) that has room for nine weeks worth of answers. The answer sheets are collected every Friday to be graded and then I return them on Monday for the new week. I also have an answer sheet with room for four weeks worth of answers or a weekly Science Starters bookmark (weekly format) available as an alternative to the standard answer sheet.

"I'd like to suggest the educational technology resource: SpinnerWheel.com

Spinner Wheel is a free online tool that allows for a flexible and engaging approach to learning. It has many use-cases for any subject.

All entries on wheels are fully editable and one of the main things that makes it so useful is the ability to create multiple wheels for use at one time.

An example use of Spinner Wheel for mathematics: https://spinnerwheel.com/mental-mathematics-quiz
and for creative writing: https://spinnerwheel.com/short-burst-writing-ideas-generator

From creating multiple random number generators to equitably selecting students from a group, the possibilities for using this resource in a learning environment are practically endless."

This resource was created as part of the CESA #1 EL OER Project to help EL students better access social studies curriculum and textbooks related to the US regions. The sort can be used to see if students understand the meanings of key content vocabulary (landforms, landmarks, etc.) and examples of each. It could also be used as an assessment tool (for level 1 & 2 ELs) to see if students can appropriately sort pictures according to the headings. The matching activity can be used to introduce/pre-teach vocabulary related to the US regions.

Only Sharing Permitted
CC BY-NC-ND
Rating
0.0 stars

Students explore volume by trying to pack a moving truck with boxes of specified sizes.
The lesson is structured in the following way:
* Before the lesson, students attempt the Packing It In task individually. You review their responses and formulate questions that will help them improve their work.
* At the start of the lesson, students read your comments and consider ways to improve their work.
* In pairs or threes, students work together to develop a better solution, producing a poster to show their conclusions and their reasoning.
* Then, in the same small groups, students look at some sample student work showing different approaches to the problem. They evaluate the strategies used and seek to improve the arguments given.
* In a whole-class discussion, students compare different solution methods.
* Finally, students reflect individually on their learning.
