Non Functional Vending Machine
This powerpoint is used to engage students before learning about functions. When you click on a number it will go to the coresponding candy. If you press the push button on the machine it will lead you to a table. The A2 button is special, if you click on the A it will lead to the Pops candy. If you click on the 2 it will lead to the Dots. (This is the non function part) You can ask the students is this a functional vending machine. They will say no because when you pressed the A2 button you got

Exponential Growth/Decay Hands On: Penny Toss | High Interest | End of the Year
Thank you for purchasing this resource and supporting my store. I love using this activity in Algebra 1 to discuss exponential growth and decay. I also use it in my Algebra 2 course as a review activity before we enter our exponential functions unit. My students get really excited to use pennies in the classroom and see real-life applications in math. I follow along with the desmos activity linked below to help students form their graphs. This activity does require a little prep with pennies and

Transformations Discovery Activity
This is a discovery activity dealing with transformations of absolute value graphs, constant graphs, linear graphs, and quadratic graphs. Students will use sliders on Desmos Online Graphing Calculator to see how each variable affects the parent graph of a function. Students will then draw conclusions and answer questions about similar functions without looking at the graph based on what they discovered. Note: You will need computers. We suggest pairing students in groups of two.

Investing in the Stock Market
This project was created for a consumer math class. It has the students selecting 3 stocks, and buying different amounts based on their budget (I chose budgets and had them draw from a hat). Students will then track the 3 stocks for a month (I have them back track dates on Yahoo! Finance's History tab), and then graphing their gains or losses. Students will then finish by summarizing their month.

Food Web: Weaving a Web
Students become a part of a FOOD WEB in this simulation using a series of FOOD CHAINS. Students work together as a whole class and build a FOOD WEB using rope/string. Once the web is built, students can easily see the interconnected nature of life. Teacher prompts to kill off certain organisms, having students drop their string and all attachments lead to deeper understanding of environmental impacts. Students then take that knowledge and draw the FOOD WEB on their worksheets using the FOOD CHAI
