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...

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

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

While the Spanish claimed to bring civilization to California indigenous peoples, in reality, they also brought violence and forced assimilation to European values. Primary sources, such as the reports of Catholic priests and Europeans...

Take a break from reading to find the magic number with this vocabulary game using words drawn from Jerry Spinelli's Maniac Magee.  Participants match the definition to the word in each numbered square of the puzzle, then add...

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...

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