AP Precalculus Unit 1 Modeling Project | The Clepsydra Challenge
Bring AP Precalculus Unit 1 to life with The Clepsydra Challenge, a hands-on modeling project where students investigate how the shape of a vessel affects the rise of water.In this real-world investigation, students collect volume-height data, create a graph, analyze changing rates of change, compare wide and narrow sections of a vessel, and connect their results to concavity, domain, range, and mathematical modeling. This project is designed to support conceptual understanding of Unit 1 topics

Combinatorics I Set Partitions I Bell Numbers I Counting Principles HS (9-12)
This advanced combinatorics project introduces Bell Numbers, set partitions, and the Fundamental Counting Principle. It balances theory, structure, and real-world problem solving. Designed for AP-style reasoning and Grade 9+ accelerated learners, it strengthens discrete math thinking. The resource is classroom-ready, accessible, and engaging. Students explore how counting extends beyond simple multiplication rules. They model and analyze set partitions using structured reasoning. Students

Instantaneous Rate of Change | Answer Key
This worksheet focuses on estimating and calculating the instantaneous rate of change of functions at specific points. Students practice finding slopes of tangent lines using limits, difference quotients, and interpreting graphs or tables to approximate instantaneous rates. Problems include polynomial and quadratic functions. Ideal for deepening understanding of derivatives and preparing for calculus concepts.

Lesson Plan: Parallax and Trigonometry
This lesson engages high school students in understanding how trigonometry is applied to measure distances using the principle of parallax, a key method in astronomy. Students investigate how a shift in viewpoint creates a measurable angle that, combined with a known baseline, forms a triangle. By applying trigonometric functions and small-angle approximations, students calculate distances to objects, simulating the method astronomers use to determine the distance to nearby stars. Through intera

Polar Coordinates Mystery Picture
Students will practice plotting polar coordinates to create a mystery picture. Coordinates include radians, degrees, negative angles and radii, and coterminal angles. When points are plotted and connected in order, the resulting picture is a sea turtle. A link to an editable Google Doc is included.
