Factoring with an Area Model (templates)

NOTE: uses editable labels which are an unreleased feature and may cause issues. Check on your students' devices before assigning. Known issue: exponents on mobile/iPad must be entered with `a^{b}` button in Desmos keypad. The `a^{2}` button does not work. These are templates for making factoring practice problems. Screen 2: Template for teachers to make specific factoring problems. Just enter a, b, and c for ax^2 + bx + c in noteValues CL Screen 3: This template is for students to enter their own values of a, b, and c and then factor it. Screen 4: This is a walkthrough where students can enter a trinomial and watch how it gets factored with the area model. Screen 5: This is like screen 2, but you can choose to give some chunks of the answer to the student automatically. This is good for scaffolding. Screen 6: This is like screen 2, but gives no feedback so you can use it for a quiz. Screen 7: Template for factoring a binomial Screen 8: Template for factoring GCF out of trinomial only. twitter: @dwekselgreene
