Dialogue with "would you rather?"

I really like this idea for inspiring math dialogue. http://wyrmath.wordpress.com

However, I still struggle with some students who simply guess with no reasoning and then claim they can get it "right" without doing the math. I realize they haven't accepted that several answers can be right...they are still locked into "answer getting".

Function Notation and Algebra 1

I'm trying to work in function notation in a better way. I started with Robert Kaplinsky's 100 by 100 In-N-Out Burger activity and it worked really well. I highly recommend.

From there I wrote this activity for U-Haul rentals. Notice what I did with function notation trying to bring in CCSS. Feel free to use and give feedback. I will let you know how it goes.
