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.

Calculus Book for Dummies Project
This is a project I assign to my AP Calculus students as a way to review for the AP. It is based off the calculus book for dummies concept. Each chapter has an individual set of requirements, all created by myself. Please feel free to edit as you see fit.It is a great project to review for the AP calculus AB and BC exam. I assign it to the students and let them have free reign on how they want to present the books. Requirements are no loose leaf paper and it must be typed if they have poor hand

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.

Calculus: The Coyotes Instantaneous Velocity on Impact with Key (Editable)
Before delving into calculus directly, I like to give my precalculus/IB students something to which they can relate: the concept of instantaneous velocity, as it applies to the infamous cartoon coyote. This activity "holds their hands" through the process of calculating the coyote's instantaneous velocity from an informal limits perspective.
I use it within cooperative groups, and I circulate to make sure they are getting the purpose of the questions.
The file includes spiral review problems.
