UNIT 8: EXPONENTIAL FUNCTIONS UNIT

*****I am a teacher in Texas, so this is the last unit I teach before we start reviewing for the Algebra 1 EOC. In Algebra 1 in the state of Texas, we do not cover horizontal and vertical translations of exponential functions; nor do we cover solving exponential equations. These concepts are covered in Algebra 2, so they are not included in this unit bundle. Additionally, as it is near the end of the year, my warmups become a spiral review of prior concepts that I want my students to recall. I wanted to include this information so you know exactly what you are purchasing!*****

Lesson 1: Intro to Exponential Functions

Lesson 2: Transformations of Exponential Functions (effects of change in value of "a")

Lesson 3: Exponential Growth and Decay

Lesson 4: Arithmetic Sequences

Lesson 5: Geometric Sequences

Day 6: Test Review

Day 7: Unit Test

ALGEBRA 1 EOC REVIEW:

We have FIVE big Reporting Categories (our groups of standards we must teach) in the state of Texas for Algebra 1.

• BIG IDEAS BUNDLE: Five of the products included review big concepts in each of the Reporting Categories - these BIG IDEAS products incorporate both notes and practice problems. 21 pages total!

• REPORTING CATEGORIES BUNDLE: The next five products included break out ALL questions from the 2017, 2018, and 2019 versions of the Algebra 1 EOC into separate Reporting Categories. Click here to check out the free version I have listed for Category 1. I include an answer key for all questions AND work through ALL problems in my TUTORIAL VIDEOS found on my YouTube Channel: Mandy’s Math World.

• SPIRAL REVIEW WARM UPS: are included with 35 multiple choice questions and 4 free response questions. 39 questions total!
