Introduction to Functions
Students will define functions, identify domain and range, and distinguish between functions and relations.
Key Questions
- Differentiate between a relation and a function using various representations.
- Explain how the vertical line test helps identify a function from its graph.
- Analyze the importance of domain and range in defining a function's behavior.

5E Model
The 5E Model structures lessons through five phases (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate), guiding students from curiosity to deep understanding through inquiry-based learning.
unit plannerMath Unit
Plan a multi-week math unit with conceptual coherence: from building number sense and procedural fluency to applying skills in context and developing mathematical reasoning across a connected sequence of lessons.
rubricMath Rubric
Build a math rubric that assesses problem-solving, mathematical reasoning, and communication alongside procedural accuracy, giving students feedback on how they think, not just whether they got the right answer.
