Composite Functions
Students will combine two or more functions to form a new function, understanding the order of operations.
Key Questions
- Analyze why the order of composition matters for most composite functions.
- Explain the domain and range considerations when forming a composite function.
- Construct a real-world scenario that can be modeled using composite functions.

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.
