Learners investigate the intervals represented by a function in this calculus lesson. They decide what interval of the function will be positive, negative or zero. They are then given graphs of functions and asked to analyze it.

Learners discuss the importance of fundamental theorems in math. In this calculus instructional activity, students define the fundamental theorem of calculus and discuss why it is so important they understand it. They work problems to...

Young scholars define integrals and explore how they relate to the areas under a curve. In this calculus lesson, students solve word problems relating curves and integrals. They sing a song to help them remember the formula for the area...

Students evaluate and define limits using substitution. In this calculus instructional activity, students apply the use of Integrals to explore Newton's law of Cooling. They solve rate and temperature problems using Integrals.

Young mathematicians use their geometry skills to save the Land of Venn in an engaging math game. A fun way to reinforce children's understanding of basic geometric figures and shapes.

Students identify the meaning of the Mean Value Theorem. For this calculus lesson, students solve problems using the definite integral. They calculate the average value of a function.

Young mathematicians solve and graph piecewise functions in this calculus lesson. They integrate linear functions containing restrictions and graph their answers using the TI.

Students review Riemann Sums with rectangles, used to approximate the area under a curve. They listen as the teacher introduces the Trapezoidal Rule to approximate the area under a curve. Students use Simpson's Rule to find the area...

Students explore the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus and apply the properties of definite integrals to solving equations. As a class, they explore formulas to use in evaluating integral yields in regions above and below the x-axis....

Pupils practice sample questions from the AP Calculus Exam. They solve calculus problems involving bounded regions, integration, derivatives, and limits. They then answer free response and multiple choice questions on the above mentioned...

Twelfth graders review the fundamental theorem of calculus and solve for the area under the curve. In this calculus lesson, 12th graders differentiate between the area under the curve and the definite integral as it related to the...

Students practice their multiplication facts by reinforcement and repetition. Students write facts in their math journals, and use labeled soccer ball and deck of cards to practice multiplying by "number of the day." Play continues until...

During read-aloud of Kindergarten Count to 100 by Jacqueline Rogers, children listen for context clues about vocabulary that includes the words "first," "second," and "third." I love the way vocabulary development skills are integrated...

Youngsters count, classify, and estimate quantities using buttons after a read aloud of The Button Box by Margarette S. Reid. They discuss the difference between guessing and estimating. Based on an experiment, they predict the...

Students investigate symmetry in the real world. In this geometry lesson, students inter-relate math and technology. They create and name a variety of polygons.

Students calculate the area under a curve. In this calculus lesson, students integrate the function to find the area under the curve. They use the Ti to create a visual of the graph.
