How this resource helps
Connect rules, tables and graphs to domain, range and intercepts for the standard’s function families. Analyze signs, increasing and decreasing intervals, average rates of change and relative extrema. Explain symmetry, end behavior, period and discontinuities without losing domain restrictions. Use technology for complicated cases, record settings and estimates, and verify graphical evidence algebraically. The suggested 3-session pathway covers: Read and sketch simple families; Track changes and special features; Technology, critique and transfer. Seven instructional sections move from warm-up and modeling through guided, collaborative and independent practice to small-group reteach and exit tasks. Select tasks based on student evidence; the reusable 60-task bank is not intended to be assigned in full within the suggested sessions. Require the requested features with interval endpoints, a justified graph or table connection, and distinctions among an intercept, an extremum and a discontinuity. For technology, retain input expression, angle mode, graph window, refined estimates and an independent algebraic or table check. Do not treat a missed feature in one window as proof it does not exist. Download contains one 124-page PDF in a ZIP. No editable Word or PowerPoint files are included. Course-aligned, not an invented grade-specific standard. Review the full SAMPLE-watermarked preview before purchasing.

Standard or objective
NC.M3.F-IF.7 — Analyze piecewise, absolute value, polynomials, exponential, rational, and trigonometric functions (sine and cosine) using different representations to show key features of the graph, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases, including: domain and range; intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; rate of change; relative maximums and minimums; symmetries; end behavior; period; and discontinuities.
