What is covered in a lesson plan on exponential functions?

Understanding Exponential Functions

Students are introduced to exponential functions by exploring their unique properties and behavior, such as rapid growth or decay. They learn to graph exponential functions, understand their bases, and explore real-life applications such as population growth and radioactive decay. By Year 5, they delve into more complex functions and use exponential functions to model situations in finance, science, and technology.

Graphing Exponential Functions

Students start with the basics of exponential functions, plotting simple functions to understand their growth behaviors. They learn about the base of the exponential function and its impact on the graph. By Year 5, students graph a variety of exponential functions, analysing their asymptotes, intercepts, and rates of growth or decay, and use them to model real-world scenarios such as population dynamics and radioactive decay.

Real-Life Applications of Exponential Functions

Students explore how exponential functions model real-world phenomena such as population growth, radioactive decay, and compound interest. They apply these functions to predict and analyse situations in ecology, nuclear physics, and finance. By Year 5, they understand the broader implications of exponential growth and decay in technology adoption, epidemiology, and renewable energy resources.
