Description
Help students master quadratic functions in vertex form with this engaging, self-checking digital activity! In this resource, students drag each quadratic equation to the graph it represents, focusing on identifying the vertex, direction of opening, and transformations of parabolas. This activity includes multiple sets of problems where students analyze equations written in vertex form and match them to the correct graph. Visual comparison and hands-on interaction make this a perfect tool for practice, review, intervention, or assessment in Algebra 1 classrooms. ✨ Skills practiced include: Identifying the vertex from vertex form Recognizing horizontal and vertical shifts Determining whether a parabola opens up or down Matching equations to graphs without graphing from scratch ✔️ No prep required ✔️ Self-checking & student-friendly ✔️ Great for independent work, stations, or sub plans
