Angry Birds - Quadratic Equations Poster Project
I wanted to find a project involving quadratic functions that would fully engage my students and I immediately thought of the game Angry Birds. I looked around on the internet and found some activities but no projects that fit what I wanted. I wanted it to be similar to how the game works, involve an appropriate and manageable level of difficulty and be open enough that each student should have a unique design. So when you can’t find it, design it.
