Calculus - Limits Card Sort Activity
A pairs / small group activity for students to practice what they know about limits.
Each group gets a formula for a piecewise-defined function and 18 cards. They must determine which six cards are true for their function. As an extension, groups who finish can be assigned a set of six of the remaining cards and create a function that has those properties.
The file contains detailed instructions as well as an answer key. Each card has a letter written on it, which allows teachers to quickly

Disk and Washer Radius Practice
For most students, the hardest part about finding the volume of a solid of revolution is identifying whether to use disks or washers* and what the radius/radii are. This set of 24 problems lets students focus on those two important aspects, with four sets of six related problems. Students are not asked to complete the (sometimes tedious) calculations to find the volume; instead, they are asked only to focus on identifying whether to use disks or washers and giving expressions for r (and R, for

Calculus Projects (AP)
This document contains 7 projects that I use in my AP calculus class. Most of them are geared toward an AP class. Rubrics for all 7 are included with the number of pages.
1 - review of pre-calc material for the first week of class. The students have to present their topic to the class and assign homework to the class.
2 - creating multiple choice questions. They have to create questions in the format of the AP test, including incorrect answers.
3 - creating a limit example. Students have to s
Famous Curves Project
This is a project for the first unit of Calculus - right after the students learn the definition of the derivative and how to find the slope of the tangent line to the graph. Students will first choose a famous curve, make a poster of the equation with graph, take the derivative, find the slope of the tangent line and the equation of the tangent line at two points on the graph, they will also find a few things about the history of the curve. The assignment also comes with a rubric to grade it

First and Second Derivative Tests and Concavity Notes
These notes correspond with my First and Second Derivative Tests and Concavity PowerPoint. Students may follow along as you go through the power point and make their own notes. This hopefully saves time and allows students to focus more on the concept rather than trying to get everything written down.

Rollercoaster Project
The Rollercoaster project is interactive and hands-on to assess the student's knowledge of polynomials and slopes. Students work in groups of 3-4 and will complete the assignment in roughly a week. Teachers can alter the amount of time needed for completion. Student's have their own roles and room for creativity. This would work as a great quarter project for a review of turning points, end behaviors, and writing polynomial functions.

A Tale of Two Mathematicians - An interactive Play
After my students completed the AP Calculus Exam during my first year of teaching AP Calculus, I continued covering material from our calculus text. However, the students struggled because the material was more difficult and, more realistically, their enthusiasm had diminished significantly after the demanding schedule that led up to the AP Exam. Therefore, I began looking for alternative mathematics that could be used to motivate students and maintain their interest after completing the AP Ex

AP Calculus Project #1 (English Teacher versus Machine)
This witty project has the students utilize a number of Calculus concepts such as: Riemann sums, over/under approximations, the FTC, accumulation, average value and average rate of change.
It has the students analyze student reading abilities and see whether the new computer program geared towards helping students read is more effective than the famous English teacher Mrs. Kreat!
This is great after the AP test, but would also be useful before hand in preparing for free response questions.
AP Calculus Free Response Packet
This packet contains 18 multi-part questions modeled after past AP Calculus free response questions. This document can be used as an AP exam review packet or split up and used throughout the course (which is what I intended in writing the problems). The packet covers most all of the content in AP Calculus AB. I also sell these same problems divided up into four units (differentiation, applications of differentiation, integration, differential equations and applications of integration).
