Loved this activity! Used it multiply times and kept students very engaged. We had the students were with partners and they actively discussed the graphs and features between each other.

Great activity to review and reinforce polynomial vocabulary and attributes. It's a change from the regular lecture and notes routine. Students were engaged and had good math talk in pairs.

LOVED this activity! My students had great conversations figuring out how to match the graphs, and they said they enjoyed it. I do wish it asked for the actual degree of the function (instead of just even or odd) and maybe that it had another graph with a zero that had a multiplicity of two.

I used this resource as a review activity with my enriched algebra 2 students before their chapter quiz. I found it to be a nice overview of multiple skills all incorporated into the same activity.

Name That Function Activities

My math catchphrase is“connecting knowledge with understanding”. Every time I create an activity, this phrase is what I think about. It helps me stay focused on the true goal and outcome of what I want for each activity.

These activities in particular really embody this statement. It’s an activity that I’ve used over and over with my students for different types of functions. At first, students tend to have productive struggle with this activity. BUT once they get the hang of it, they realize how making these connections helps them fully understand functions and their graphs.
