Jan 26, 2016 - Topic A focuses on the skills inherent in the modeling process:  representing graphs, data sets, or verbal descriptions using explicit expressions (F-BF.A.1a) when presented in graphic form in Lesson...

Jan 26, 2016 - Students apply their experiences from Topic A as they transform quadratic functions from standard form to vertex form, (x) = a(x - h)2 + k in Topic B.  The strategy known as completing the square is...

Jan 26, 2016 - In Topic D, students apply and reinforce the concepts of the module as they examine and compare exponential, piecewise, and step functions in a real-world context (F-IF.C.9).  They create equations...

Jan 26, 2016 - In Topic B, students connect their understanding of functions to their knowledge of graphing from Grade 8.  They learn the formal definition of a function and how to recognize, evaluate, and...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students interpret the function and its graph and use them to answer questions related to the model, including calculating the rate of change over an interval, and always using an...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students use linear, quadratic, and exponential functions to model data from tables, and choose the regression most appropriate to a given context.  They use the correlation...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students recognize when a table of values represents an arithmetic or geometric sequence.  Patterns are present in tables of values.  They choose and define the parameter values for...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students make sense of a contextual situation that can be modeled with linear, quadratic, and exponential functions when presented as a word problem. They analyze a verbal...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes From a graphic representation, students recognize the function type, interpret key features of the graph, and create an equation or table to use as a model of the context for...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students make a connection between the symbolic and graphic forms of quadratic equations in the completed-square (vertex) form.  They efficiently sketch a graph of a quadratic...

Jan 26, 2016 - Student Outcomes Students recognize and use parent functions for linear, absolute value, quadratic, square root, and cube root to perform vertical and horizontal translations.  They identify how the...
