5. AIMS / SUCCESS CRITERIA  AIMS -To explore the relationship between parabolas and the completed square form of their equations  -To link key features of parabolas to ‘real life’ contexts  SUCCESS CRITERIA: -I can start from any representation (graph, table, equation) and connect it to the others -I can link the key features of quadratic relationships to a given context to real life contexts
