Inverses of Functions Tarsia Puzzle

With this activity, students will match functions with their inverses in order to create a mystery-shaped puzzle! As students find the matches, they will place the edges together of each pair until all the pieces are matched and the puzzle is complete. This activity is great for group work, extra practice before or after an extended break, and especially useful for kinesthetic learners.

Tips for use:

• Laminate and cut out the puzzle pieces for repeated use. Store them in individual baggies and all baggies in one large manila envelope for easy use in the future.
• Allow students to work in groups of 2 – 3 for a fun group activity.
• Best used for skills reinforcement, not introduction of the concept.
