This project focuses on different kinds of functions and their applications in the real world. Students will “model with mathematics” using different approaches. In this project students will use modeling techniques to make future predictions using general statistics of a city or country and topic of their choice. Students look at different types of data; they analyze and interpret the data to decide which function best models the data. Students generate regressions of different types of functio
Learning about parent functions can be boring and possibly disengage students. This resource gives students the opportunity to discover parent functions individually (or in groups), with links provided, but research is suggested. There is a checklist for students to follow that serves as a rubric for grading as well, which helps them create a wonderful product and/or presentation.
Conic Sections Unit: Worksheets and Assignments for Circles, Parabolas, Ellipses, Hyperbolas. Includes worksheets for both classwork and homework, research projects with rubric, assessment project, word search with answer key and much more.
Trigonometry has a rich history, and this assignment explores it! It can serve as an introduction to the topic that gives some meaning to the word sine before students use it mathematically. I've found that explaining what trigonometry is all about before jumping into the problems helps students overcome the uncertainty and newness of it all. Includes some comprehension questions as well.

Math Research Paper Rubric (docx)
One of the classes I teach is Pre-Calculus Research. Each year my students must complete an original research paper and some go on to complete at a regional Math Fair competition. In order to best meet the needs of my students, I created a rubric for these reserach papers
