📚 WALT, Success Criteria & Support

WALT: We are learning to complete tables of values for quadratic equations, plot the coordinates on a Cartesian plane, and draw the parabolas so they combine into a butterfly shape.

Success Criteria:

• I can calculate y-values for given x-values using a quadratic rule.

• I can plot and label points accurately on the Cartesian plane.

• I can sketch smooth parabolas through plotted points and identify each vertex.

Differentiation:

• Support: use integer x-values and completed example for one equation; work in pairs if needed.

• Core: complete the tables, plot all points and sketch each parabola.

• Extension: modify one equation (change a or k) and predict how the graph moves; sketch the new curve.

Dyslexia-friendly reading options:

• Read each equation aloud; highlight numbers and operation signs; work with one equation at a time.
