RATED H
FOR HIGH SCHOOL
y = x^2
Warm up› Introduces the lesson› Gets students pumped up for the
game Game
› A three round competition› Test students speed and
accuracy in recognizing the given function and corresponding graph
Introduce the basic functions and their corresponding pose to mirror their graph
Drill the students for a good two to three minutes
Prepare for the game by having the students create their own functions on a piece of paper and turning it in
y = x^2
y = x^3
Participants› Teacher › Students
Materials› Equations› Time› Second Story
Lookout (such as a balcony, etc.)
› Digital camera
Break the class up into two teams by counting off
A 3 round competition in which both teams will each be given a function to graph
Each round both teams are given only 30 seconds to graph their function
15 seconds is initially permitted for discussion
For the remaining 15 no talking is permitted
y = x^2y = x^2Correct!
y = x^3y = x^3Correct!
Increased Processing speed
Why is this important?› Linked with good
performance on cognitive tasks
› Precedes an increase in working memory capacity
Maintains:› Sustained attention› Executive attention
Retention› Short term (working memory)› Long term
Social benefits:› Teaches students to work
together› Promotes peer bonding› Create a friendly
atmosphere between students
Emotional benefits:› Self-confidence
