Function Machine
Activity: Students investigate very simple functions by trying to guess the algebraic form from inputs and outputs. Function Machine is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Linear Function Machine
Activity: Students investigate linear functions by trying to guess the slope and intercept from inputs and outputs. Linear Function Machine is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Simple Plot
Activity: Plot ordered pairs of numbers, either as a scatter plot or with the dots connected. Points are connected from right to left, rather than being connected in the order they are entered.

Slope Slider
Activity: Manipulate a linear function of the form f(x)=mx+b using slider bars. Explore the relationship between slope and intercept in the Cartesian coordinate system.
 Solve using tables, graphs, and algebraic properties. 
Functions and the Vertical Line Test Lesson: Introduces students to the vertical line test for graphs of functions.
Graphs and Functions Lesson: Demonstrates the connections between formulas and graphs.
More Complicated Functions: Introduction to Linear Functions Lesson: Introduces the basic ideas needed for understanding linear functions.

Data Flyer
Activity: Enter a set of data points, then derive a function to fit those points. Manipulate the function on a coordinate plane using slider bars. Learn how each constant and coefficient affects the resulting graph.

Function Flyer
Activity: A more advanced version of Slope Slider, this activity allows the manipulation of the constants and coefficients in any function thereby encouraging the user to explore the effects on the graph of the function by changing those numbers.
