Functions and Graphs

The last section in our first unit, chapter 1-9, allows us to revisit both familiar and novel concepts. Students are reminded that graphing on a coordinate grid is an involved process which incorporates number sense and strategic planning and they are introduced to terms like continuous and discrete functions that invite them to think more carefully about interpreting graphs.

Tonight's home nugget focuses exclusively on reviewing for our upcoming Test #1 and is summative in nature.
