Where Will the Vertex Be?

The beginning of a list of vocabulary related to the study of quadratics was shared with students this morning. Words like parabola, vertex, line of symmetry, maximum and minimum were defined based on our investigation last week. Students then used class time to work on their investigation about the relationship of "a", "b" and the effect they have on the placement of the vertex and line of symmetry. Data tables, graph and analysis for this is due by tomorrow.

Tonight's Homework: Get your grade slip signed. Finish the investigation described above.
