Lesson Plans and Worksheets
I have used several hands-on lessons that have helped to engage my students in topics that may have been mundane to them. I do not have a text book or resources for many of the topics that I teach, and it is nice to find so many resources in one place.

Graphing Functions Teacher Resources
Find teacher approved Graphing Functions educational resource ideas and activities
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.
In this graphing functions worksheet, students examine 3 graphs of functions. Students then answer 5 problems where they match the graph to an equation, create a graph based on a set of ordered pairs or answer questions based on the graphs provided.
In this graphing functions worksheet, learners solve 10 problems where they create a table of values then make a graph for a given function.
High schoolers graph functions that are given, and then they write the equations for the completed graphs. There are several problems included, and they are designed to be used without calculators.
Working independently or in teams, your class practices connecting graphs, formulas and words. This lesson plan includes a guided discussion about distance vs. time graphs and looking at how velocity changes over time.
Practice graphing basic equations. Algebra learners complete a table showing values of x and y. They graph the results on a coordinate grid. There are six problems: three equations are linear, and three are quadratic. The "show your work" boxes ensures that everyone is working to understand the principles behind the math.
In this graphing functions worksheet, students make a table of values, graph the functions, and tell whether the ordered pair lines are on the lines. Students solve eight problems.
Here is a functions worksheet in which learners solve functions containing variables, graph the coordinates, and answer two questions about it. They complete 14 functions.
Perfect for Algebra 1, this simple graphing functions learning exercise, requires learners to find the slope and y-intercept of a linear equation and graph equations. This resource is two-pages long and contains 6 multi-step problems.
In this ELL, graphing functions worksheet, students solve 1 word problem where they write an equation, create a table of values, plot the points and a graph and draw a graph of the function. Step-by-step instructions and scaffolding are provided.
