Instructional Ideas
- Use the resource to introduce piecewise functions
Classroom Considerations
- While the resource presents three different methods, they are really not necessary
- Learners should have familiarity graphing different types of functions (linear, quadratic, etc.)
Pros
- Includes blank coordinate planes
- Warm-up questions review the skills needed in lesson
Cons
- Contains too few practice problems
