Description
This fun mystery activity covers all four methods commonly used to solve quadratic polynomials: factoring when a=1, completing the square, using the quadratic formula and graphing quadratic equations.
The activities are all centered around the mystery of Who Killed Mr. Quad, with each segment leading to a new lead in the case.
PLEASE NOTE: This is the same mystery as these alternate versions which are based on the level of factoring your class needs to practice:
- THIS ACTIVITY: Quadratics Mystery Bundle Factoring (a=1)
- Quadratics Mystery Bundle Factoring (a≠1)
- Quadratics Mystery Bundle Factoring (a is any number) includes 10 equations a=1, 10 equations a≠1
- ALL options bundled together!
In the first activity, Who Killed Mr. Quad, students combine the skills of solving quadratic equations by factoring (a=1) with the classic board game CLUE. You are able to customize the title, suspects, weapons, and locations of your mystery!
Once the suspect is identified, students are lead to a locked briefcase, and they solve a series of quadratic equations by completing the square to figure out the combination using a logic puzzle. This fun activity is called The Case of Ms. Mann's Briefcase
The Message in the Briefcase is coded, but students will decode it using the Quadratic Formula.
This message leads your junior sleuths to the city Where Ms. Mann is Hiding.
Each of these activities can be used independently and are listed as separate items. Please visit the links listed above for more information and previews!
