Write-Your-Own AP Calculus FRQ Project

My FAVORITE Project – do you want your students to excel at completing Free Response Questions on the AP? Well, why not have your students write their own FRQs to learn how topics are connected in these tricky questions. This purchase includes 3 sections – the student assignment meant to be given directly to your students, a project rubric outlining each component of the project to be graded with open point allotments to customize to your grading needs, and teacher notes and resources. The teac

Looking for a meaningful way to help your AP Calculus BC students review challenging concepts while building confidence before the exam? This FREE “Tough Stuff” Project is a student-centered activity that encourages deeper understanding, ownership of learning, and peer teaching—all essential for success in AP Calculus BC. Students identify a concept they find difficult, learn it more deeply, and then teach it in a clear and engaging way. This project is perfect for pre-exam review, post-unit r

Derivatives Board Game Project

In this project, students will develop a board game of their own creation which integrates what they are learning about taking derivatives, and is fun to play! Download this free rubric for the project, pre-designed for you! Build into this rubric is a detailed description of the board game project, as well as breaking down the project management into stages.

AP Calculus Extra Credit Opportunity

Created by
Mr Buck
Sometimes kids in AP Calculus take longer to learn a concept and need a second chance. This extra credit opportunity provides a rubric for students to create their own Free-Response Question. Students learn better when they apply their knowledge (even if incomplete) to creating and solving their own problems. As they say, teaching is the best way to learn. Students find this extra credit opportunity enjoyable and challenging. Furthermore, it allows the teacher to use the student-generated FR

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

Similar to an Escape Room, this engaging fun project for Calculus students, uses techniques from the Volume of Revolution (part of the Applications to Integration Unit), to escape capture by Aliens. Your students have been unwittingly captured by aliens from the planet Relssek, and in order to be set free and escape their captors, they must find the volume of the Queen’s favorite mug, no easy task. In order to solve the problem they will use their prior Algebra knowledge plus Calculus to dete

AP Calculus Project #1 (English Teacher versus Machine)

Created by
Smits Docs
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.

Curve Sketching with Calculus

All About STEM
Curve sketching with Calculus takes lots of pieces of information and puts it into a single graph! Help your students organize their thoughts and practice their graphing skills with this ready-to-go project or use as group work practice! Students can choose the two functions they would like to sketch from a list of six options, but one must be a polynomial function and the other a rational function. Or instead of having students pick, feel free to differentiate and assign specific functions to

Modeling the spread of ebola using calculus (original and key)

Created by
Kevin Fraker
This project has 4 pages. page 1 gives data on the cases/deaths due to ebola. Students are asked to model both and find an appropriate function. [table to graph/function] page 2 asks students to analyze the rate of change of the cases/deaths and find an appropriate derivative function. [approximate rate of change using slope in table, make graph/function] page 3 asks students to consider an equation for the growth and use derivative analysis (increasing/decreasing concavity extremes) to answer

ANGRY DERIVATIVES

This is an exploratory, open-ended calculus project that focuses on understanding derivatives using the popular game Angry Birds. Students will create their own functions, find their derivatives, use resources such as desmos to graph them, and formally summarize their work. This download will give you the detailed student hand-out. I have not included a rubric. I have only used this project once so far and the results were a mixed bag, so I ended up scrapping the rubric I had. If/when I use

AP Calculus Group Activities

This is a collection of five group activities with answer keys that can be used at the end of the school year or intermittently throughout the year. Groups can be selected randomly or created by you. I selected my groups, which I called Lab Groups, based on having one high performing student and one low performing student in each group. I used these lab activities as a grade. They can also be used as final or AP exam practice. They are perfect for end of the year activities to prepare for finals
