- Lesson Plan →Objectives, pacing and practice, built from this lesson's brief.
- Guided Notes →One page your students fill in and keep.
- Exit Ticket →Three items at the end of class. No student accounts.
- Re-teach →After an exit ticket: who missed what, and what to do tomorrow.
- Homework →Assign practice; it grades itself.

What you'll learn
- Read the vertex (h, k) and the axis of symmetry x = h from vertex form y = a(x - h)^2 + k, and explain the vertex as the point where the squared term is 0 (a minimum when a > 0, a maximum when a < 0)
- Determine from a alone whether a parabola opens up or down and whether it is narrower or wider than y = x^2
- Locate the vertex of a parabola given in standard form y = ax^2 + bx + c using x = -b/(2a) and substitution
- Write the equation of a parabola translated by stated horizontal and vertical amounts
- Identify an equation as a parabola from the fact that exactly one of its variables is squared
