Description
In this activity, your Pre-Calculus, Algebra 2, or Trigonometry students can practice the vocabulary of Conic Sections while investigating similarities and differences in the properties of parabolas, ellipses, and hyperbolas.
The activity can be used in a variety of ways to aid learners in understanding of key elements related to conics. Itโs best to use the graphs to sort first, then incorporate the equations to complete the matching portion of the exercise.
The product contains 16 graph cards of parabolas, ellipses, and hyperbolas along with 16 equation cards. Students can sort the cards in a closed or open sort and record their findings on a “sorting mat.” Sorts can be done on standard form, conics with center (vertex) at the origin, conics with center at (h, k).The packet also has a sorting mat recording sheet and a matching recording sheet in the eight-page document. An answer key is provided.
