 * Bridges, skateparks, roller coasters, music, and population growth: functions are everywhere! Because functions are such a large part of our everyday life, students must be able to gain an understanding of these algebraic curvatures. To begin, students will explore a variety of functions and observe the behavior that each displays and acquire key skills before applying their knowledge. After becoming familiar with the shapes of the functions, students will solve various functions using an array of mathematical techniques that are demonstrated in the real-world. After becoming function gurus, students will apply their newfound knowledge of functions to real-world situations in a creative and imaginative way. Everything that students have acquired about functions is essential for it WILL be brought to life by the end of the unit through a creative project that demonstrates their full mastery of functions.
