Algebra 1 - Slope as Motion! – Room 313 Can you walk a function? Come see how we use a sonic motion detector to trace slopes on a graph. Presented by Andrew Davis, Emily Gunderman, and Emily Kaffel Geometry - Understanding Kaleidoscopes!! – Rm 311 Have you ever wondered what goes into creating a kaleidoscope or how it works? In this lesson, we are going to use some of the same concepts to investigate shapes and some of their properties! Presented by Nicole Brooks, Shmonica Cobb, and Lindsay Polarek Algebra 2 - Parabola Possibilities – Room 303 Use the graphing calculator and work with your team to determine all of the ways you can change the graph of a parabola by changing its equation. Also, learn other helpful graphing calculator features that enhance student learning. Presented by Erin Carmichael, Do Hwang, and Anne Munroe PreCalculus - Arr You a Pirate? Finding Functions Using View Tubes – Room 306 A student thinks he/she can learn better by looking through a tube which resembles a monocular. Your job is to determine how much the student can see from any distance away from the SmartBoard! Can we do this mathematically? Let’s find out! Presented by Vince Shamhart and Micah Ward
