I subscribed to Lesson Planet after I started teaching science at my district's alternative school. Science isn't my specialty so it has been a real life saver! I am able to find lots resources to enrich my lessons! It's a tremendous time saver too! Why reinvent the wheel?

Your high schoolers will be able to relate to this exponential model. In part 1, they create a table to model a situation, plot the data, understand the domain and range, and answer questions about the general function. In part 2, they look at an exponential function and see how changes to the function effect the graph.
Learners create functions from graphs. In this movement with functions lesson, students use motion detectors and create graphs from the movement. Afterward, they describe graphs and write equations for the graphs.
What is absolute value? What is an absolute value function? Emerging mathematicians solve equations containing variables inside an absolute value sign. They graph each function on a coordinate plane and identify the maximum and minimum values in the graph. This two-page worksheet contains detailed notes, examples, and instruction, as well as four problems.
Students solve linear equations algebraically and through graphing. In this algebra instructional activity, students identify the domain and range of each function. They create formulas to solve word problems.
Explore variables and variable expressions. Learners select pictures from a newspaper or magazine to describe an algebraic expression. They then write the word sentence under the picture and then translate the words to an algebraic expression. In groups, they match expressions using symbols. They play an "I Have, Who Has" game and use a mystery box to explore functions.
Upper graders find the domain and range of a function. They graph the given functions and identify the breaks, and missing points in the graph. Then find the domain and range and explain how it affects the graph using a calculator. They apply these concepts to solving real world scenarios.
Learners hop online to complete a self-assessment. Using the interactive tool, they solve 16 multiple choice problems. They graph inequalities, find linear equations passing through two points, solve piecewise functions, find the domain and range of a relation, and find the first three terms in a sequence. There's even a hint provided for each problem.
Play ball! High schoolers explore the concept of quadratic equations through modeling how shooting a basketball can be expressed as a quadratic function. They impose a coordinate grid on the path of a shooting basketball and determine points to model the data. Additionally, they enter data into lists and perform a quadratic regression on the data.
In this algebraic functions worksheet, learners write a function to determine the relationship between people and barrels of oil used. They research the population of the 10 largest cities in their state and use this functional relationship to calculate the number of barrels and gallons of oil used by each city.
Complete 14 short answer questions regarding rental car data found on a graph. They also complete two information tables based on the fictitious car company fees.
