My Algebra 1 students are required to live on able to evaluate functions from a table, equation, or graph. Last year, I taught these every bit split upward skills. This year, I've decided to combine them into a unmarried science together with hence that (I hope!) students tin give the axe come across that we're doing the exact same matter inwards each case. We're merely given the data inwards a unlike way.
Last year, I played a version of evaluating functions country of war amongst my students that I haven't blogged nearly yet. Oops... It worked well, but it exclusively allow students practise evaluating functions from an equation. Last night, every bit I was laying inwards bed together with trying to intend nearly sleep, I started brainstorming how to brand a game that incorporated evaluating functions from graphs together with tables, too. I would convey liked to include mapping diagrams inwards this activity every bit well, but it seemed similar to a greater extent than of a hassle than it would live on worth.
Here's what I came upward amongst this afternoon:
If that picture is besides fuzzy or difficult to read, hither are the instructions inwards typed form. :)
Game Preparation Instructions
1. Decide how many students volition live on inwards each group.
2. Print i re-create of page 2 (evaluation cards) for each educatee inwards each group. Printing these on unlike colors of newspaper volition arrive easier for students to kind out which cards belong to who at the get of the game.
3. Print i re-create of pages 3-5 (function cards) for each group.
4. Laminate (if possible) together with cutting apart.
Game Play Instructions
1. Shuffle the larger business office cards (pages 3-5) together with house facial expression upward downward inwards the middle of the playing area.
2. Distribute the smaller evaluation cards to each player. If they are printed on unlike colors, each actor should teach nine cards inwards a matching color. If cards are non color-coded, distribute nine cards to each player. Each actor should shuffle their deck several times.
3. Turn over the hand business office carte together with house it inwards the middle together with hence all players tin give the axe see.
4. Each actor turns over their valuation carte together with evaluates the business office at that value.
5. The actor amongst the highest value wins each of the other players’ evaluation cards. Cards that are won teach on the bottom of the stack.
6. Continue play past times turning over a novel business office carte inwards the middle of the playing expanse together with having each actor plow over a novel evaluation card.
7. If 2 or to a greater extent than players convey identical evaluation cards that evaluate to the same highest value, each of those players should plow over a novel evaluation carte to human activity every bit a necktie breaker betwixt those players. If 2 or to a greater extent than players convey non-identical evaluation cards that evaluate to the same highest value, a novel business office carte should live on turned over to human activity every bit a necktie breaker betwixt those players.
8. Play ends every bit presently every bit i actor runs out of cards. The players who all the same convey cards are considered the winners of the game. Another circular may live on played if fourth dimension allows. (This dominion keeps all students engaged throughout the game.)
If y'all convey whatever questions nearly the rules (or suggestions to brand them better!), delight teach out a comment at the bottom of this post!
* Best results if each page printed on a unlike color
* Example: If students volition live on playing this inwards groups of three, usage 3 unlike colors when you impress these. If y'all are printing multiple sets, each grouping of cards tin give the axe usage the same 3 colors.
