Introduction to Polynomials Functions Lab (PBL PrBL Activity)
This lab is meant to launch your Polynomials unit in an Algebra 2 class or an Honors Algebra 1 class. This is a perfect addition to any PrBL/PBL run class. Before teaching students anything, let them explore an application for a polynomial (cubic) function and derive a function themselves. The pre-lab directs students to build an open-face-box out of a single piece of paper with the largest volume possible in any way they choose (do not give them any further directions!). At the end of the pre-l

Modeling Tides with Trigonometric Functions
In this activity, students analyze data sets about water depth through the daily tidal cycle. While completing this activity, students:-- create scatterplots using desmos.com/calculator-- practice computing the parameters of sinusoidal functions and check their work by fitting an equation to the scatterplot-- interpret the meaning of different parameters in context-- determine how a verbal description of changes to the environment would impact parameter values-- introduce a new term to a basic s

Quadratic Projectile Motion Lab with Data Set
In this activity, students analyze two different data sets that describe how projectiles fly through the air. The first describes the flight path of a thrown ball and the second describes the distance traveled by a ball dropped off a building over time. Using desmos.com, students fit linear and quadratic models to discover which quantities are related linearly (time and horizontal distance traveled) and which are related quadratically (time and vertical distance traveled.) They are asked to inte

Polynomial Functions Exploration (PrBL PBL Activity)
This lab is designed to 1) introduce the relationship between a function rule, written in intercept form, and the zeros on a graph for all polynomial functions & introduce the concept of end behavior 2) allow students an opportunity to review multiplying polynomials and plotting coordinates precisely by hand. My students were lacking a strong Algebra 2 foundation so I designed this lab for them to raise them up to Pre-Calculus concepts (polynomial behaviors based on the way the function rule

Modeling Seasonal Daylight Length with Trig Functions
In this activity, students analyze data sets modeling hours of sunlight in three cities over the course of the year (Sydney, Juneau, and Washington D.C.) To complete the activity, students must:-- practice computing the parameters of sinusoidal functions and check their work by fitting an equation to the scatterplot-- use their equations to predict the hours of sunlight on specific days of the year-- use their graphs and equations to predict when pairs of cities will have the same amount of sunl
