Unit 2 Plan Quadratic Functions

This unit plan outlines the key topics and lessons for a unit on quadratic functions. Students will learn to describe transformations of quadratic functions by writing equations for translations, reflections, and stretches/shrinks. They will identify characteristics of quadratic functions such as their axis of symmetry and minimum/maximum values. Students will also learn to model real-world situations using quadratic equations by writing equations that fit data sets or use given points and intercepts. Assessments include checks for understanding, team tests, and a unit test.

Unit 2 Plan: Quadratic Functions

Chapter Learning Target: Understand Quadratic Functions


Success Criteria:
● I can describe transformations of Quadratic Functions
● I can identify characteristics of quadratic functions
● I can write equations of parabolas
● I can model with quadratic functions

2.1 Transformations of Quadratic Functions


Essential Question: How do the constants a, h, and k affect the graph of the quadratic function g(x) = a(x − h)2 + k?
Previous Understanding: In the last chapter, they explored transformations of all functions, specifically focusing on
linear transformations. This first lesson of the chapter introduces the same transformations of quadratic functions.The
vertex of a quadratic is a key point for identifying the transformations occurring.

Learning Targets:
● Describe transformations of quadratic functions
● Write transformations of quadratic functions
Core Vocabulary:
● Quadratic Function
● Parabola
● Vertex of a parabola
● Vertex Form

Needed to Solve:
1. Identify:
● Translations
● Reflections
● Stretches and Shrinks
2. Write:
● Translations
● Reflections
● Stretches and Shrinks

2.2 Characteristics of Quadratic Functions


Essential Question: What type of symmetry does the graph of f(x) = a(x − h)2 + k have and how can you describe
this symmetry?

Previous Understanding: In the past, students have looked at increasing and decreasing functions. In this section,
students will explore symmetry of quadratic functions, and how to graph them using their symmetric properties.

Learning Targets:
● Explore properties of Parabolas
● Find maximum and minimum values of quadratic functions
● Graph quadratic functions using x-intercepts
● Solve real world problems
Core Vocabulary:
● Axis of Symmetry
● Standard Form
● Minimum/Maximum Value
● Intercept Form
Needed to Solve:
1. Axis of Symmetry
2. Standard form to Vertex form of a function
3. Graphing in
a. Standard form
b. Vertex form
4. Maximum and Minimum Values

2.2 Modeling with Quadratic Functions


Essential Question: How can you use a quadratic function to model a real-life situation?

Previous Understanding: In the previous chapter, we explored linear modeling. This will be an extension. Instead of
identifying the slope and intercept, they will identify the vertex and the stretch/shrink of the graph.

Learning Targets:
● Write equations of quadratic functions using vertices, points, and x-intercepts.
● Write quadratic equations to model data sets
Core Vocabulary:
● Average rate of change
● System of three linear equations

Needed to Solve:
● How to write quadratic equations given information
● How to model quadratic equations given points using technology

Assessments:
1 Check for understanding mid unit
1 Team test
1 Unit Test
