Guess What? Parabola Edition

Description

Bring quadratic functions to life with this engaging twist on the classic Guess Who? game—reimagined for secondary math.

In Guess What? Parabola Edition, students use yes/no questions and precise mathematical vocabulary to identify a hidden graph of a parabola. Each card features a unique quadratic representation with clearly distinguishable characteristics, encouraging students to think critically about structure, shape, and key features of quadratic functions.

Students will naturally engage in meaningful mathematical conversation as they ask strategic questions about direction of opening, vertex location, intercepts, and more. The goal isn’t just to “guess correctly,” but to justify reasoning, refine questions, and use accurate vocabulary throughout the process.
