Title	Quadratic Transformations (Vertex form)
Description	Students will explore quadratic transformations by changing a, h, and k values using vertex form. Students will understand that "a" changes a parabola's concavity and (h, k) is the vertex. This is an intro to vertex form so rational "a"-values are not explored, nor is scaling.
