Vector Treasure Hunt! Drawing Vectors Activity for Physics or Precalculus!
Ahoy, matey! Your students will have a blast practicing drawing vectors on this Vector Treasure Hunt! Students must follow written directions to draw vectors onto a treasure map. If they draw their vectors correctly, the students will find the buried treasure! Students will need to use a protractor and a ruler to draw their vectors. When they are finished, they will draw a "shortcut" on the map. This will be the resultant vector and show the displacement of the ship. Students will also ge

Linear Equations Review Project
This is a one page handout that has students create their own design using line segments, then calculate slope, write equations, find x and y intercepts, and write the domain and range in interval notation. There is an example on the second page along with a grading rubric. This activity will take 1-2 class periods. It is highly adaptable. I left the file in Word 97-2002 format so you can tweak it for your needs.

Vector Treasure Hunt
This activity is designed to teach the students about displacement vectors. There are three parts in four pages. In part II of the lab students make a hunt for other students to follow based on vectors. The next day, students go out, follow the directions and find the "treasure". Very fun activity that teaches the students the basics of vectors. Appropriate for grades 7-12 with an emphasis on beginning physics students.

Introduction to Graphing Logarithmic Functions
This small packet helps students learn how to graph logarithmic functions by first rewriting the function in exponential form, then putting values into a table and graphing them. There is one example done by the teacher (you could do more if you like) and there are three problems for the students to try, with different bases. This is a good introduction activity for the first day you start to cover graphing logarithmic functions.

Domain, Range, and Is it a function? Cards
This is a great activity to do once you have taught how to find the domain, range, and determining functions. I used it as a warm-up after the lesson had been taught. You give each student a set of the cards (I recommend copying them on different colors of paper, that way they aren't as easy to get mixed up). The first thing you can do is have the students seperate them into 2 columns, 1 for functions, the other for nonfunctions. Once they have them seperated, you can have them find the doma
