It's hard to tell but this poster is made from 4 sheets of regular computer paper taped together and trimmed into a square. I made the poster for free by following the directions in this post.

By the end of the week, we needed a get-up-and-move activity so I made my students a scavenger hunt. Questions included: find the zeros, find the vertex and find the y-intercept. They all liked the y-intercept questions:) You can find this activity in the sidebar "freebies" section too. To get the practice we needed in this unit, we used this graphing calculator warm up template.
It helped my students gain confidence working with the graphing calculator to find zeros.
More quadratics activities are found in the post Fun with Quadratics.
