This Relations & Functions Interactive Smart Notebook Lesson is a 22-slide Smart Board presentation, with guided notes, in which students learn how to identify functions from ordered pairs, tables, mappings, and graphs. Students get instant feedback as they work right on the board. The presentation is organized as follows:
Slides 1-4: Guided notes on the coordinate plane, relations, domain and range, functions, and the vertical line test. The printable notes and answer key are provided with the lesson when you download.
Slides 5-16: Function or Not a Function? Students decide whether each relation is a function. I give each student a red and green card to hold up their answer, and then a student taps the check or the X on the board to see “You are correct!” or “Try again!”
Slides 17-20: Students select all of the relations that represent functions, and each box turns green as they choose it. When they tap “Check My Answer,” a green check appears next to each function so they can see if their choices match.
Slide 21: Key points to today’s lesson. Use the eraser to reveal each bullet.
