About the store
Hello! I am a long-time creator and educator - for my own students and the teachers I work with. I have taught in public high schools in Texas since the last century. I have taught every math course Texas offers with the exception of Statistics - most of my years were spent in Algebra and AP and Dual Credit Calculus classrooms. Alongside teaching, I have served as an instructional dean for math and science in two different high schools.
I have to modify almost everything I have made before I put it up here, so check back often. It is likely that notes and practice assignments will appear first, but I will get to the activities and conversation starters.

Calculus Formula Sheet/Bookmark and Seven Quizzes
This includes a document that can be copied front to back to provide a 1/2 page reference sheet of all the derivative and integral rules for AP Calculus AB and BC. If you print it 2 pages to one, you can create bookmarks (use cardstock) for students to use in their interactive journals. My students liked the bookmarks and liked that they could pull it out as needed. This also contains 7 "formula" quizzes. They are the same exact formulas with the right-hand column blank - they are just mixed up

Algebra Vocabulary Symbol Concept Match
This is a three-way matching activity. It includes 42 vocabulary, concepts, and symbols used in algebra classes. Each match will consist of a term/phrase/symbol, a verbal description, and the item in action - how it might be seen in a math classroom. Different combinations of cards can be used at different points in the year (a few cards for a warm-up, a unit's worth of cards, or a year-end review). This is best taken on by a small group of students or as an extension activity. This includes a

Function, First and Second Derivative Graph Match / Card Sort
This three-way match/card sort/puzzle connects facts about the original function to graphs of the first and second derivatives. My students started at the graph of the first derivative and then worked forwards and backwards to the second derivative and original function. This CAN be done when they first learn about derivatives before they learn about antiderivatives - it helps them make connections early. My students put their matches in their interactive notebooks.

Connecting the Discriminant, Factors, Graphs of Quadratic Functions Matching
For this activity/card sort/matching, students will connect (no calculator required), the value of the discriminant, the equation, conclusions about the factors and concavity, and the graph of the function.

Linear Functions Matching Graphs to Equations Mixed Review
This has the student identify the attributes of the function given by the form of the equation (slope and intercept, intercepts from standard, point and slope, etc.) . They will then match their information to given graphs. When complete, they will match the graphs to another form of the equation (that could be simplified or changed in some way).

Rational Functions: Discontinuities, Asymptotes, and Intercepts
This assignment focuses on connecting zeros from the numerator and denominator to different attributes of rational functions: removable discontinuities, vertical asymptotes, and x-intercepts. It also asks for the y-intercepts. The students will then match their results to given graphs, give the domain and write the equation of any horizontal asymptote they see. The last two problems give the student the attributes and asks them to write the equation.

Evaluating Functions, Function Notation, Multiple Representations Matching
This activity gives the students four different functions (each a different representation). The students will then match a function value (using function notation) with the answer. The four functions could be displayed for the class and the matching cards given to individual students, pairs, or small groups. (This could be a pre-assessment if given to a small group to see what they can figure out.)

Teaching style
I believe in students knowing why things work so they don't need a "trick" to remember. I believe they learn more when they talk to each other about the mathematics - how else will they ever see that there is another way?
For my work with calculus and calculus students, I keep a focus on them being able to quickly and correctly justify their answers, which you will see throughout the notes and assignments. I also do not think you can "cram" for an AP test, so you will see reviews of previous topics on assignments.
It's important to note that antiderivatives are taught right after derivatives - not the next semester. It allows for more depth to problems AND more time for the students to sort out what they should be doing before the AP test at the end of the year.
My own education history
I have my Bachelor of Science in Mathematics and a Master of Education in Mathematics Education from the University of Texas at Austin.
