Review

I was helping in a grade 10 class and saw a neat strategy for review. Several topics were written as titles on the boards and students circulated adding in their strategies for achieving the goals.

how to factor

how to find the roots/x intercepts/zeros of a quadratic

how to find the vertex

how to go from factored form to vertex form

how to go from standard form to vertex form

how to go from standard form to factored form

This was a work in progress as I snapped these photos. Students were collaborating, and adding their strategies to those listed, and editing what was written if something was missed.

Students were then working on a review package with a great deal of support material on the walls to help. This was a nice way to reactivate prior knowledge.

Exams are coming soon, it’s a good time to be reviewing!
