Students model population growth of invasive species, exploring the limits of uninhibited growth versus logistic reality. They solve for when a population hits a specific threshold or carrying capacity.
A real-world project exploring linear functions through cell phone plans and career earnings. Students analyze slope as a rate of change and the y-intercept as a starting value.
A focused lesson on the binomial distribution, covering the BINS criteria, identifying parameters, and calculating probabilities using digital spreadsheet tools.
A comprehensive unit review and summative assessment covering three key methods for solving quadratic equations: graphing, factoring, and the quadratic formula. Students practice identifying key features of parabolas, algebraic manipulation for factoring, and the step-by-step application of the quadratic formula.
A comprehensive guide to analyzing and graphing rational functions, covering all key features from asymptotes to holes.
Advanced applications of central tendency and spread, including algebraic problem-solving, weighted means, and the mathematical impact of outliers for high school students.
A comprehensive assessment covering Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 data analysis, designed to evaluate mastery of mean, median, mode, and range in both numerical and narrative contexts.
Students interpret and solve word problems involving mean, median, mode, and range, focusing on extracting data from narrative contexts and real-world scenarios.
A foundational lesson designed for SIFE students to understand fractions greater than one using visual models and fraction strips. Focuses on bridging concrete models to number lines with minimal text reliance.
