Illustrative Mathematics: F If.3 Snake on a Plane

Curated by ACT

In a video game called Snake, a player moves a snake through a square region in the plane, trying to eat the white pellets that appear. This task has learners approach a function via both a recursive and an algebraic definition, in the context of a famous game of antiquity that they may have encountered in a more modern form. Aligns with HSF-IF.A.3 and F-BF.A.2.
