Thank you for this very well thought-out and interesting lesson! Great sense-making approach to this topic, and excellent examples, exercises and activities.
My only thought is that it would be hard to teach all this in 15 minutes. If there is time before our class, I would think through how you might make the lesson move quicker (for example, have each of three groups test out the ideas with a different family of functions (quadratics, sinusoidal, etc.) at the same time), or how to take on a bit less for this 15-minute microteaching lesson (perhaps only look at one family of functions? Sinusoidal might be a good choice, but quadratics aren't bad either).
