Unit 3 in Trig was short and sweet. Here are our notebook pages:

Our Trig BFF: The Unit Circle - I'm not sure my students just realized how familiar they were going to become with the unit circle!
In retrospect, I would have also given students laminated unit circles/formula sheets to keep in a pocket in the back of their notebooks.

Notes on how to find trig ratios from the unit circle:

Then, notes on how to generalize trig ratios for each quadrant. My trig teacher taught us "All students take calculus." Since my school doesn't offer calculus, I introduced it as "All students take classes." However, many of my students made up their own way to memorize the signs of trig functions in each quadrant.

In retrospect, I would have also given students laminated unit circles/formula sheets to keep in a pocket in the back of their notebooks.
Using our unit circles, we filled out this table of trig ratios for the first quadrant.
