Function Machine (4.OA.C.5 and 5.OA.B)

45 animated video clips showing a "Function Machine" in operation. A number goes in, a button is pushed, and a different number comes out. Students analyze the relationships between the input and output values to determine the rule being applied.

Make time to have fun in math class!

This resource is a powerpoint presentation of animated video clips showing a "Function Machine" in operation.

There are 45 video clips, answer keys, and suggestions for using and extending the concepts with your students.

Examples of one-step and two-step functions are included. The examples are arranged in increasingly-challenging order.

As with all of my resources, this file has been kid-tested and created by a veteran teacher dedicated to the philosophy of promoting math fluency and skill mastery through fun!

Thanks for looking!

Sincerely,

Madison

PS This powerpoint file works with the Windows version of Powerpoint (2013), but I don't think it works with the Mac version.
