RF02 activities

- Down the Drain from Erick Lee - Drain the water from a hole in the bottom of a water bottle to investigate two different quadratic relationships: the shape of the stream of water and the rate the water level falls.
- Desmos Polygraph: Parabolas - This is a great online activity for a class to try out.One student selects a parabola. Another student tries to guess which parabola was chosen by asking yes/no questions. Student practice mathematical communication in this activity.
- Angry Birds - Parabolas from Jon Orr - Given different parabolic flight paths do the angry birds hit the pigs?
- Polynomial Roots and End Behaviour Card Sort from Julie Reulbach - This would be a nice activity to modify to work with just quadratics vice all polynomials. Let me know if you're an HRSB teacher and would like help developing this idea.
