Graphs of Quadratic Functions: Year 8 6.1 practice

What you need to know

Check yourself against these “I can” statements.

I can complete a table of values for quadratic functions like y = ax² and y = ax² + b, including negative x values
I can recognise the U-shape of a quadratic graph
I can find the line of symmetry and turning point of a quadratic graph
I can explain how changing a number in the equation changes the quadratic graph
