Angry Birds Parabola

I got this  idea from pinterest.  Thanks to Mr. Orr's for the idea!  You can visit his website here.

My students were able to draw a parabola, label the vertex and x-intercepts, and then create equations for the parabola in factored and standard form.  You could also get them to find the vertex form if you've covered that topic.
Here are the a couple of the results!  I love how they turned out and it's so great to see their work on the walls.

 

SOHCAHTOA Trig Foldable

This year, I made an instruction sheet to go along with the Trig Foldable.
I made sure to demonstrate how to fold the paper before I let them get started and provided different coloured papers for them to choose from.

Download the instruction sheet here.

I love the way these foldables turned out.  The kids really got creative!
