Hello teachers friends! My name is Niki.I have been teaching mathematics for over 20 years. My subjects are Algebra through Calculus 3 along with Geometry, Trig and Differential Equations. My passion is to create engaging fun and rigorous math resources of high quality for teachers and students. My products include partner and group activities, matching and sorting activities, multiple-choice games, rigorous worksheets & lessons, challenging independent practice, homework assignments, etc.
This is a collaborative activity to practice evaluating indefinite integrals by using their BASIC properties and the table of common integrals. Partners work through 20 sections each containing one integral.
Activity Directions:
A partner start solving an integral while the other partner is waiting for the answer to check it by differentiating. In the next section, partners take turns and it goes the same way.
An alternative way to use this activity:
Partner A solves an integral of a section while Partner B solves an integral of the other (the next in line) section. Then they swap papers and differentiate the obtained functions to check each other’s work. If extra practice is needed Partner A and Partner B can change places with each other and continue solving.
Applying both integrating and differentiating help students gain a better understanding of integration. I hope it will be beneficial for your calculus students.
Answer keys and full solutions (typed and handwritten clearly) are included.
