Exploring Graphs
In this feature we start by challenging students to play a game in which they need to identify the equations of straight line graphs. They can then move on to consider the properties of quadratics and cubics.
You can watch a recording of the webinar in which we discussed the mathematical thinking which can be prompted by these problems.
Diamond Collector
Age 11 to 16
Challenge Level
