Infinite Series Teacher Resources

Read a series to develop an understanding of series. The special focus professional development on infinite series consists of eight articles. Articles contain information strictly for teachers along with aspects to incorporate into the...

Delve into the middle of calculus. The resource is the second eBook of three that covers the complete calculus content. Seven chapters begin with integrals and different methods of integration before moving on to differential equations....

Learners analyze geometric series in detail. They determine convergence and sum of geometric series, identify a series that satisfies the alternating series test and utilize a graphing handheld to approximate the sum of a series.

In this math activity, students examine the infinite series. They determine if it diverges or converges. Example 2 and 3 is group work to apply the tests for convergence or divergence.

Everything you wanted to know about calculus—and more! The resource is a complete Calculus textbook with explanations, examples, and practice problems. 

In this word problem activity, students solve one sum of an infinite/rate problem.  The rate problem is solvable in two ways.  The easiest approach is provided.

High schoolers are introduced to infinite series, geometric and telescoping series as well as the relationship between the sequence of partial sums of a series and its sum. They apply symbolic capacity of their calculator and calculus to...

In this infinite series worksheet, students use comparisons to determine convergence for improper integrals. They use the integral test for infinite series. Students state the reasons they believe a given integral is converging or...

In this math worksheet, learners investigate the concepts of divergence and convergence for the functions. The sheet is handwritten and has poor quality.

Geometric series either get bigger or approach a single number. So, how do you know which it is? An interactive presents three different geometric series with varying common ratios. With the aid of patterns, pupils determine values of r...

Have some fun building squares out of triangles. Pupils investigate the partial sums of odd numbers. Using the sum of the first four odd numbers, learners see that it can be rewritten as a sum containing a triangular number. Simplifying...

In this math worksheet, students write a problem having solution u(x, t) for each function u given. They include the lengths, physical constants, and initial conditions.
