Green Globs and Graphing Equations   

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
---
Grade Levels: 9-Adult

In Green Globs and Graphing Equations, students explore the connections
between graphs and symbolic equations in a colorful interactive learning
environment. Here they examine lines, circles, ellipses, parabolas,
hyperbolas and other graphs, visually experiencing the effect on a graph's
shape and position as they alter the equation that supports it. 

Students continue their learning with a series of fun, competitive games
that build problem-solving strategies as they write equations to uncover
hidden graphs and "explode" points on a co-ordinate grid. This math program
creates an solid conceptual foundation in algebra, trigonometry and graphing
concepts in your students. Math teachers praise this program because it
encourages students to think creatively about graphing equations.
