Description

Need a finding x and y intercepts activity that gives instant feedback without letting students skip ahead and see the answers without doing any work? This self-checking activity on finding x and y intercepts does just that! Students tackle 12 problem cards, each challenging them to find either an x or a y-intercept. As they type their solutions into the sheet, a rotation of planet images is shown.

Once they've correctly solved 3 questions in a row finding x and y intercepts, the image for that row will stop rotating and will reveal 1 specific image. Students will know they've correctly completed the page when all four rows display the very same design!

Why Choose This Finding X and Y-intercepts Activity?

  • Instant Feedback: Students receive immediate feedback as they work through 12 unique problem cards, helping them stay on the right track.
  • Engagement: As they enter their solutions into the sheet, a challenge unfolds, adding an element of excitement to their learning experience.
  • Goal-Oriented Learning: The challenge is clear - students aim to solve 3 questions in a row correctly. When they achieve this, it's a moment of accomplishment that keeps them focused.
  • Comprehensive Support: Don't worry about students encountering difficulties. The included question/answer page showcases all problem cards and their corresponding solutions, ensuring you're ready to support them when needed.

Why this finding x and y-intercept activity is great for students:

  • Reinforces finding x and y intercepts in a fun way
  • Encourages critical thinking and problem-solving
  • Provides a sense of achievement and progress

How to Assign It:

  1. Share the finding x and y intercepts digital activity Google sheet with your students.
  2. Encourage them to work through the problems, aiming for 3 correct answers in a row.
  3. Use the question/answer page to provide guidance when necessary.
  4. Witness their confidence and proficiency grow as they tackle finding x and y intercepts effectively!

Note: This activity is similar to another finding x and y intercepts activity. However, the other one is Halloween-themed. The 2 activities have completely different questions & images.

Graph linear and quadratic functions and show intercepts, maxima, and minima.
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. Mathematically proficient students start by explaining to themselves the meaning of a problem and looking for entry points to its solution. They analyze givens, constraints, relationships, and goals. They make conjectures about the form and meaning of the solution and plan a solution pathway rather than simply jumping into a solution attempt. They consider analogous problems, and try special cases and simpler forms of the original problem in order to gain insight into its solution. They monitor and evaluate their progress and change course if necessary. Older students might, depending on the context of the problem, transform algebraic expressions or change the viewing window on their graphing calculator to get the information they need. Mathematically proficient students can explain correspondences between equations, verbal descriptions, tables, and graphs or draw diagrams of important features and relationships, graph data, and search for regularity or trends. Younger students might rely on using concrete objects or pictures to help conceptualize and solve a problem. Mathematically proficient students check their answers to problems using a different method, and they continually ask themselves, "Does this make sense?" They can understand the approaches of others to solving complex problems and identify correspondences between different approaches.
