We reviewed vocabulary related to parabolas and quadratic equations. Terms included vertex, line of symmetry, coefficient, table of values, maximum and minimum. We learned that the line of symmetry passes through the vertex, meaning you know the x-value of the vertex if you know the equation of the line of symmetry.

Students chose partners and began working on an investigation that will help them discover how "b" impacts the parabolas position on the coordinate grid. Students will spend the bulk of class time next week working on this project and preparing a creative oral presentation to deliver to the class during the week of April 13th.
