Build a patio from toothpicks and marshmallows to analyze functions! Learners look for patterns in the data as they create different size patios. As they discover patterns, they make connections between the different representations of...

As part of a unit study of immigration, class members participate in a mock Immigration Court activity in which they argue four cases before an immigration judge.

In this Cramer's Rule worksheet, students first evaluate five determinants or square matrix. Then they solve the last five problems by applying Cramer's Rule. Students identify and define Cramer's Rule as a theorem used with linear...

For this derivatives worksheet, students identify the partial derivatives of a function, find the rate of change, and determine the maximum and minimum values of a function. This one-page worksheet contains 6 multi-step problems.

Facilitate an understanding of equality using a modeling task. After watching different-sized cups being stacked, learners use their math skills to determine when the height of each cup tower will be the same. Meant as an introduction to...

Eighth and ninth graders solve and graph 24 different problems that include completing input/output tables and graphing the pairs. First, they find the missing values for each table and write the rule for x. Then, students write the...

Time to crunch the numbers! Young scholars use an interactive number cruncher to practice operations with whole numbers. They input a number and watch as the number cruncher produces the output and then use the data pairs to determine a...

Pupils use the six released free-response questions from an AP Calculus BC exam to prepare for their own exam. The questions cover a range of topics from the BC curriculum, with half of the items coming strictly from AB material and...

In this algebra worksheet, pupils use the given values for the functions to create a pattern of solving an equation that is extended into a word problem.

Scholars find a pattern from a geometric sequence and write the formula for extending it. The worksheet includes a table to complete plus four analysis questions. It concludes with instructional implications for the teacher.

Differentiate between calculus concepts. The beginning of a helpful calculus resource begins with a short review of functions and moves right into limits to define derivatives. The six-chapter resource continues with applications of...

It's time for scholars to show what they know about coordinate planes with a collection of three assessments. The exams' objectives include plotting points on a single grid, measuring using the distance formula, and identifying...

Pupils analyze a pattern of conference tables to determine the number of tables needed and the number of people that can be seated for a given size. Individuals develop general formulas for the two growing number patterns and...

What is the difference between accept and except? Affect and effect? Brilliantly advise your class with the advice in these slides. Definitions of commonly misused words from A-Z help clarify meaning and usage.

In this trigonometric functions worksheet, students differentiate inverse trigonometric functions using the chain rule. There are 15 questions.

In this long distance phone plane worksheet, students compare various phone plans and determine which long distance plan has the greatest savings. Students support their answers visually through the use of tables and graphs. They write...

Put all of the derivative rules into one basket. The lesson stars with warm-up exercises that provide a connection to previously learned concepts. The lesson plan uses the different derivative theorems to calculate a variety of...

Getting the best pick of the apples depends on where to pick. The short assessment presents a situation in which class members must analyze a real-world situation to determine the cost of picking apples. The pricing structures resemble...

Pupils determine the theoretical probability of winning a game of marbles. Individuals compare the theoretical probability to experimental probability for the same game. They continue on to compare two different probability games.

All you need is a zero and a one. Build pupils' understanding of binary values and number systems to gain familiarity with binary numbers. Using a hands-on activity and technology, scholars learn how the binary system works and its...

In this function instructional activity, students determine the natural domain and range for functions and formulas. They identify the composition of two functions and complete the derivation of the quotient rule. This three-page...

For this chain rule worksheet, students use the chain rule to differentiate compositions, and determine the value of the limits. They give reasons justifying each step of the chain theorem. This six-page worksheet contains theorems,...

In this function learning exercise, students solve complex exponential and logarithm functions. This two-page learning exercise contains approximately six problems.
