An Introduction to Quadratic Functions using the 5E Instructional Model

Student-centered learning has been shown to increase student’s engagement and overall achievement in the classroom. The 5E instructional model is one way for teachers to implement student-centered instruction into their classrooms. This model allows for students to engage, explore, explain, elaborate and evaluate throughout the learning process. This curriculum project presents four sequential Algebra I lessons that incorporate the 5E instructional model to teach an introduction to quadratic functions. The curriculum was designed to be aligned with the NYS Next Generation Mathematics Standards for Algebra I. The answer key for all lesson materials and activities is included in the appendix of this project. By using these lessons, mathematics teachers can be supported in incorporating a student-centered approach in their classroom in order to maximize student learning and engagement.
