This walkaround activity sorts indefinite integration problems from Mild (easy), Medium and Spicy (difficult). The skills and content required for this assignment include: Power Rule Trigonometric Inverse Trigonometric Natural Log Exponential (e) Chain Rule There are 16 questions total with an answer key attached. The file is also uploaded as a Word document for easy editing if you wish to modify the questions. It is a great review for students prior to learning more challenging chain rule prob

This activity is designed to allow students to practice their derivatives with questions that are tiered from mild (easy) to spicy (difficult) and requiring the most steps, while walking around the room and having some independence to choose the problems they wish to do. You can design the activity to be fully completed, or have the students choose a certain number of mild medium and spicy questions they need to complete. The derivatives include the following rules: Power, product, quotient, ch

Students will complete a hands on activity matching sets of cards to each parent function. There are 4 different cards for 8 different parent functions including: Constant Linear Quadratic Cubic Square Root Absolute Value Exponential Rational With the 4 different sets of cards: Name of the parent function The function itself The graph A description of each Students will have to group the correct answers together and put their answers on the answer sheet provided using the indicators at the bott

The format of the review sheets ask students to describe what each word means, ask what they would "do" or "perform" if they were asked about an operation or to draw a picture to represent it. Ideally you are hoping they can compare and contrast different words like simplify and solve and other words. The file is uploaded in a word document for easy editing and adding/removing certain vocabulary words.

Students will be able to use and distinguish between basic exponential growth, decay, compound interest and continuously compounded interest word problems. The file is in a Word Document for easy editing if needed. There is also an answer key with the set up of each problem.

Students will use a straight edge to draw two convex polygons and discover the triangle sum theorem by connecting the vertices and completing a guided chart.

Word Problems dealing with simple and damped harmonic motion that used only trigonometry(not physics) to solve. Answer key is included.

Discover the concept of end behavior by using a calculator to plot the graphs of various polynomial functions and look at patterns of odd/even exponents and positive/negative coefficients.

This is a discovery activity where students will use plastic pieces of various lengths that snap together forming sides of triangles in order to discover the relationship between the side lengths of a triangle and the types of triangles they form, if they even form a triangle. This can be done with different size popsicle sticks, straws or even string. At the end of the activity there are essential questions that students are required to answer, leading them to the properties of triangles they

This is a short discovery activity for students to use logic, reasoning and patterns to discover how to multiply matrices on their own. Students are given 3 examples of a worked out problem and asked to discover HOW they were multiplied in order to create a formula. This project works best with limited interaction between student and teacher so students build their reasoning skills.

This is a two-part project. There is a sample rubric attached as well as a sample of student work. Part 1: Students will graph a piecewise function with 20 intervals using constant, linear, absolute value, and quadratic functions. Once graphed, the picture will look like an animal that they can recognize if they completed it correctly. Part 2: Students will create their own piecewise function and the corresponding graph in order to create their own picture. *You can allow the use of graphi
