Instructional Ideas

  • Use as an extension of transformations of functions
  • Have individuals make a table of values as they work on the transformations of the functions

Classroom Considerations

  • A continuation of a series of lessons on transformations
  • Participants must have previous experience with piecewise functions
  • 21st of a larger 26-part series

Pros

  • Combines all transformations in one lesson while reviewing piecewise functions
  • All handouts, keys, and a detailed teacher guide are provided
  • An exit ticket and introductory activity are included

Cons

  • None
