| Description: |
Gives students experience in manipulating graphs by changing domain and range values for the viewing window, which can easily be carried over to more powerful tools such as graphing calculators. Allows students to become familiar with the Cartesian coordinate system. Questions encourage thought about how the shape of different areas of a graph are not necessarily representative of the shape of the entire graph. |
