Learners, using 15 years of sunspot data, plot data on a classroom graph. They discuss why the pattern from their individual sheets did not and could not match the class graph.

Seventh graders investigate the concept of looking at the data put in a variety of ways that could include graphs or data sets. They analyze data critically in order to formulate some sound conclusions based on real data. Students graph...

For this math worksheet, students perform multi-step operations that involve the addition of two other operations. The sheet is a teacher's guide.

Young scholars research carnivorous plants and how they trap insects. They role play as botanists to write a research field guide about a newly discovered imaginary carnivorous plant.

Students explore lead poisoning and how it relates to ceramic dishes. They perform an experiment to discover if any of your ceramic ware is leaching lead which might cause lead poisoning.

Pupils explore the amount of lead in ceramic plates through an experiment. Students determine if everyday dishware is leaching lead into food. They chart their results and discuss how much lead in ceramic dishware may cause lead...

Students explore the changes in the Sequoia forest ecosystem. They evaluate reasons for the changes and discuss opposing views of human activity, logging and fire management practices. Students observe a video, describe the location of...

Learn about accumulation functions with this handy reference guide. Provides a detailed definition and examples that enhance further explanation. Includes links to related topics.

In this activity, students examine functions defined by a definite integral. They create tables and graphs for integration functions. They understand the foundation of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus.

In this activity, students explore the connection between an accumulation function, one defined by a definite integral, and the integrand. They also discover that the derivative of the accumulator is the integrand.

Practice associating the area under rate-of-change curves with net change.

The interpretation of definite integrals as accumulation of quantities can be used to solve various real-world word problems.

Given a word problem that involves rates and accumulation, find the appropriate expression for solving the problem.

Students learn how to generate a table of values showing the accumulated amounts of a sum of money compounded over n periods. They graph these values and learn how to determine the accumulated amount corresponding to any given period.

Explains the function of the Antiproton Decelerator, a device at the European Center for Nuclear Research used to "slow down" bunches of antiprotons for use in experiments.

Students use the calculator to determine the amount of money that will accumulate in a savings account, if every month a certain sum is deposited in the account. They explore the use of the constant function key on the calculator to make...
