Objective
Students explore basic connections between graphs, tables, and symbolic
representations for lines, parabolas, inverse models, and exponential models. One of
the primary goals of this lesson is to help students begin to recognize patterns that
are different from lines.
Overview of the Lesson
his lesson emphasizes patterns, discovery, and vocabulary by focusing on the basic
connections between the graphs, tables, and symbolic representations for lines,
parabolas, inverse models, and exponential models. Students investigate patterns
and various models using the graphing calculator. It is designed for first-year high
school students and would be an ideal lesson following a unit on lines.
