Description
Engage your high school or college students with this interactive AP Calculus game designed to master first and second derivatives! Perfect for game-based learning. Make solving derivatives fun, collaborative, and highly effective for your classroom! Great for early finishers and test prep review!
- First Derivative Problem: Help students master derivatives with problems like finding f'(-2) for f(x) = 5x - x² - 9, an essential skill in calculus learning.
- Second Derivative Problem: Deepen understanding of higher-order derivatives by solving g''(1/8) for g(x) = 4x³ + 3x² + 9 in this engaging and interactive card game.
Students will pick up a card and solve the derivitive.
The answer (1-10) will determine where the student can place their marker.
Three wild cards have been included (labeled Wild A, Wild B and Wild C).
2 game boards for Four in A Row are included in this download.
Four in A Row Game Rules:
-This is a 2 player game or it can be played in 2 teams.
-Students are given 2 cards at a time.
-Students solve the problem
(optional: the opposing student can check the student's work for accuracy.)
-Once the student solves the problem correctly, they place their marker (not provided). The goal is to be the first person to get 4 in a row.
Wild Cards
There are 3 types of wild cards (Wild A, Wild B and Wild C). (6 total Wild Cards)
These problems are more challenging to solve.
It is recommended that:
"Wild A =Remove an opponent's piece"
"Wild B =Place your piece anywhere"
"Wild C = Remove AND Replace your opponent's piece"
✏️Teacher Directions✏️
-PRINT out the game board and cards on cardstock.
-LAMINATE the cards to play for years
-CUT out the cards
-Find 2 different blocks/coins for students to mark their spot.
-Students will need scratch paper or a whiteboard to work out their problems.
-PLAY
Game Board:
There are 2 different Gameboards
Each game board has 3 of each of the numbers from 1-10.
The deck of cards has 4 solutions per number from 1-10 (40 regular cards)
Total pieces: 2 game boards, 46 cards, (token markers not included)
PLUS: Answer keys and Logarithm Properties are provided!
⭐PRO TIPS⭐
- Math Decks from LOMA Learning can also be used with common games you probably already have in your classroom. Replace the dice with these cards and you've transformed your classroom!
