My students love these! I bring in basic ingredients and they bring in a coffee mug. I hide the quantities of the ingredients in basic integral problems. When they solve the problems they can then mix the ingredients and microwave their cookies!
This is a quick practice on finding trig derivatives without the Chain Rule. I use it in BC to quickly review. Students answer the questions to complete the joke. I don't include a key because upon completion, the joke answer will act as a key. It is a Word Document so you can edit as you see fit. Some problems are multiple choice while some are short-answer. I require students to show work to all types of problems so questions are spaced out to allow students to put work directly on the h
This is an activity where students must find the killer of a student by reviewing derivatives. This is a review on finding derivatives implicitly, derivatives of inverse functions and trig inverses, as well as derivatives of logs and exponentials. The handout is specific to my school but is a Word document so you can edit with names of teachers from your building and places in your building. Students loved this activity because it add a little mystery to a worksheet. They also found it funny
This is a handout reviewing some concepts of derivatives including the Power Rule, Product Rule, Quotient Rule, and Chain Rule. It includes trig derivatives but not logs or exponentials. If you are a big Taylor Swift fan, this handout may not be for you. It pokes fun of the drama in Taylor's life. Students answer questions and eliminate possibilities with their results. In the end, students reveal who Taylor is currently feuding with, where, why, and the resulting song she wrote. My kids g
