=Functions and polynomials: chapter 2=

=On the first day of the unit, we created (well, I showed the students and asked them to copy it) a concept map for the topics in chapter 2...hopefully they can show you their notes sometime. I really like the flow of the chapter--from intuitive non threatening exercises that all will be able to complete to some that, if we get there, will challenge the best students.= =This chapter has some more traditional elements to it so I'm able to provide some links to helpful tutorials. There are other helpful videos out there, but I tend to like patrickjmt (whoever he is!) Enjoy!= Chapter 2 best guess pacing/assignments

Evaluating functions video [|Evaluate functions]

Domain and range video [|Domain and range]

Composition of functions video [|Composition of functions]

Finding inverses of functions video [|Inverse of function] (he uses the technique of replacing the f(x) with y, and switching...more procedural than intuitive...but still good)

Multiplying binomials video [|Multiply binomials]

Dividing polynomials video [|Divide polynomials]

Factor and remainder theorems video [|Remainder theorem] [|Rational roots test] [|Another rational roots test] [|Divide polynomials]

Factoring videos [|Easy factoring] [|Difference of two squares] [|Sum and difference of cubes] (There is NOT a factoring by scaling video so make sure you get good notes on that!)
