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.

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 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.

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 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...

Young scholars 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...

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...

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...

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...

Don't be obtuse, this geometry unit is the just the right resource for educating the acute young minds in your class. From classifying and measuring angles, to determining the congruence of shapes, this...

Introduce youngsters to the important role shape and form play in art with this extensive collection of activities and projects. From teaching first graders how to create mandalas to engaging third and fourth graders in the design...

Class members listen to the William Wise book Ten Sly Piranhas and act out the story with one child playing the piranha. They use goldfish crackers (eating them to show subtraction) to demonstrate and understand equations they see...

This plan aims to increase the reading proficiency of your fourth grade class. While no materials are provided, a list of activities to practice are included. Various activities include creating songs for short vowel sounds, using cue...

Students design an on campus treasure hunt to find various architectural vocabulary words which they then create definitions for on the blog page on the Environmental Design website.

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.

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 review ways to use the calculator to graph a function, solve an equation, calculate a numerical derivative, and calculate a definite integral. They practice using their calculator to solve a set of sample exercises. Students...

High schoolers engage in daily spelling and vocabulary practice of workplace-related terms with definition matching exercises, word scrambles, dictation, sentence writing. Finally, they compose a short essay in which they use the words...
