What educators are saying
I really enjoyed using this project for the advanced Geometry students. I liked that it was in word format so I could edit and extend the project a bit. Great resource!
I needed an activity right before a break and this fit perfectly! Students were engaged the whole class period.
Description
This lesson plan and activity were created to allow students to explore a real life situation involving graphing circles. Students will get lots of practice writing equations for circles and graphing circles on a coordinate plane as well as using some problem solving skills to make their own decisions.
A lesson plan with some estimates of time are included in the pages.
Make sure students have graph paper that has at least 40 units total for the x-axis.Standard graph paper from the store normally works for this.
