What is a fun activity for students to practice simplifying complex numbers? Using imaginary numbers, students will simplify 20 complex number expressions and match them with the list of solutions. The no prep worksheet has students use these answers to decode a math riddle. It’s a fun way for them to self-check their work. An answer key is included. Concepts included:· Adding and subtracting like number types. · Converting i2 to a real number. · Using the distributive property with complex n

One of the best ways for students to learn is by correcting mistakes- theirs or someone else’s. The Error Analysis of Limits will give students an opportunity to find common mistakes when taking limits especially for indeterminate forms. Many strategies are covered from substitution to complex fractions. Students will identify the mistake, determine what strategy to use, and then solve the problem correctly. Each problem is on a separate sheet, so you can mix and match to your students needs.

What is VANG? It is the four ways to represent a function- Verbal, Analytical, Numerical, and Graphical. By identifying functions using all these types of expressions, students will demonstrate a deep understanding of the function. This set of cards can be used as a group activity. Each student is given a card that describes a function verbally, analytically, numerically, or graphically, and then they find the other three students with cards that match their function. This activity can

Are you looking for short, simple explanations of how limits work?This bundle of 10 lessons on limits is the key to all levels of student understanding. From an Introduction to Calculus through AP Calculus BC, this student friendly program breaks up calculus into small bites that students can easily digest. Each lesson includes an explanation with examples, guided practice, and an activity sheet to aid students in mastering the concept. Comic figures emphasize points about limits throughout th

Don’t miss out on one of the top 5 theorems in calculus.Learning to apply the Intermediate Value Theorem is essential for calculus students. In this short but effective lesson, students will gain a rudimentary understanding of the IVT. Both print and digital editions are available. Use them in your class and/or with online learning. All students benefit! Topics covered in this lesson are:· What is the Intermediate Value Theorem? · Conditions for using the Intermediate Value Theorem. · Fin

Start improving your students AP scores in the fall. A common question on the AP Exam is about solving a piecewise function for continuity. This along with several other types of problems, such as removing a discontinuity, are explained in this lesson. Both print and digital editions are available. Use them in your class and/or with online learning. All students benefit! Topics covered in this lesson are:· How to remove a removable discontinuity. · How to determine if a piecewise function i

Help your students continuously learn more calculus!Students will explore the mathematical definition of continuity by comparing the limit of a function and its value at a given point. They will learn the characteristics of the three types of discontinuities and how identify each. Both print and digital editions are available. Use them in your class and/or with online learning. All students benefit! Topics covered in this lesson are:· Definition of continuity. · Types of discontinuity wit

Squeeze all you can out of your students.This lesson explains and applies one of the top limit theorems in calculus- The Squeeze Theorem. By using graphs, tables, and equations, student explore finding an unknown limit by using this theorem. This student friendly program breaks up Calculus into small bites that students can easily digest. Through reading and guided practice, students will gain the knowledge to complete the activity sheet at the end of the lesson. Comic figures emphasize poin

Students don’t have to be right-brained or left-brained to understand one-sided limits. This lesson uses graphs, tables, equations, and verbal explanations, to aid all students in understanding right sided and left sided limits. This student friendly program breaks up Calculus into small bites that students can easily digest. Through reading and guided practice, students will gain the knowledge to complete the activity sheet at the end of the lesson. Comic figures emphasize points about li

Teach your students the techniques to determine tricky limits.Two techniques that are often found on the AP Exam are using the conjugate to rationalize a numerator and simplifying complex fractions. Students will learn and practice both “tricks” in the fifth lesson of my limit series. “Relearning” how to simplify a complex fraction is also important knowledge for college entrance exams. This student friendly program breaks up Calculus into small bites that students can easily digest. Through

The Easiest Way to Determine Limits is with Good Algebra Skills.Students will practice determine limits analytically using substitution and factoring skills in the fourth lesson of my limit series. This student friendly program breaks up Calculus into small bites that students can easily digest. Through reading and guided practice, students will gain the knowledge to complete the activity sheet at the end of the lesson. Comic figures emphasize points about limits throughout the lesson to keep

What is the simplest way to explain basic limits to your students? Explore limits verbally and graphically in this first lesson of my limit series. This student friendly program breaks up Calculus into small bites that students can easily digest. Through reading and guided practice, students will gain the knowledge to complete the activity sheet at the end of the lesson. Comic figures emphasize points about limits throughout the lesson to keep students interested and motivated. Both print an

Don’t let your students forget all their precalculus skills over the summer! This 10-topic worksheet review covers all the types of functions needed for calculus with emphasis on trigonometry. It’s a great way to prepare your students for AP Calculus. Included in this packet are: · 10 review worksheets. · A formula and concept section they can refer to if they get stuck. · An answer key for you to grade their work, or you can provide it to them for self-check. · Self-evaluation questionna
