Introduces the basic ideas needed for understanding functions.
Teaches distinguishing between possible and impossible graphs of functions as well as causes of graphical impossibility.
Function Revolution (Activity)
This activity allows the user to find the volume and surface area of various functions as they are rotated around axes. This applet can be used to practice finding integrals using the disk and washer methods of calculating volume.
Function Machine (Activity)
Students investigate very simple functions by trying to guess the algebraic form from inputs and outputs. Function Machine is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.
Demonstrates the initial connections between functions and their graphs.
Two Variable Functions (Discussion)
Introduces 2 variable functions as ordered pairs and how to operate perform operations on ordered pairs.
This worksheet is for use with the Function Machine activity (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/FunctionMachine/).
Linear Inequalities (Activity)
Students create linear inequalities and systems of linear inequalities on a coordinate plane. This is like a graphing calculator with advanced viewing options.
Recursion (Activity)
Graph recursive functions by defining f(0)=C and defining f(n) based on f(n-1).
This worksheet is for use with the Slope Slider activity (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/SlopeSlider/).
