This is a self-checking practice created for students to find the first and second derivatives of common and composite functions. The functions include polynomials, rational fractions, radicals, trig and inverse trig expressions, exponential expressions and natural logarithmic functions. In each section, students have to differentiate once or twice a function given and then to prove that this function satisfies a given differential equation. Thus, students check whether they have computed the derivatives correctly. (There are sections 12 in total - 12 functions and 12 differential equations). The resource can be used for class work, independent practice or partner activity, for enrichment and homework assignment. Typed solutions to the problems are provided.

This resource contains total of 50 problems. Students will practice differentiation using the basic properties of derivatives and the power rule only. The packet has 6 worksheets: ⟐ The first and second worksheets WS # 1A and WS # 1B are similar. Students will have to find the first derivatives of 10 various functions ( polynomial, rational and radical). These are designed to be possibly used as a partner activity. ⟐ The third worksheet is finding the first derivatives of 10 functions as some of the examples are a bit more complicated and challenging than WS # 1A and WS #1B problems. ⟐ The fourth worksheet is finding the second derivatives of 8 various functions ( polynomial, rational and radical). ⟐ The fifth worksheet has the students finding the equation of the tangent line for 6 given functions at indicated points. ⟐ The sixth worksheet asks the students to determine the intervals on which 6 given functions are increasing and decreasing. The worksheets can be used as class practice, for an extra practice or enrichment, an assessment or homework assignment. It can be used as a partner activity – for instance: ⟡ Partner A will solve WS # 1A while Partner B solves WS # 1B, then they swap papers and Partner A will solve WS # 1B while Partner B solves WS # 1A. Once they have completed the work, they compare their results. If there are different answers to one and the same problem, students have to identify and correct any errors. Answer keys are NOT included!

This is a collaborative activity to practice evaluating indefinite integrals by using Integration by Parts. It aims to develop and consolidate student’s skills in both integration and differentiation as well. Partners work through 16 sections (or less if preferred) 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 (saving time) 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 answers. A purpose of this activity is to aid learners gain a better understanding of integration. I hope it will be helpful for your calculus students. Typed answer keys are included

Here’s how: Students are given a figure with shapes of a circle, called “stars”. Sixteen of them are labeled with the correct answers of students’ questions and form the configuration of the constellation Draco. Students connect the “stars” of the constellation with straight lines in a specified sequence. At last, they try to identify the constellation.

It could be splitted into two parts. The quiz can be used as an assessment as well.

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.

This is an engaging and collaborative partner activity for analyzing and sketching graphs of polynomial and rational functions using calculus. Students will use limits, first and second derivatives to provide information about function behavior and then sketch the graph of the function. Activity Directions: Students are given five sections to work through. In each section partners are given two functions of the same type to identify their features (intercepts, asymptotes, intervals of increase and decrease, local maximum and minimum points, intervals of concave up and concave down, inflection points). After finding all the important parameters students are asked to draw a graph of the function. ▸The functions of a section differ only by coefficients so partners obtain similar results and graphs with the same shape. Students are provided recording/response sheets with a number of steps of the general algorithm for investigation of functions, rooms to record their results and coordinates grids where each axis labeled using an appropriate scale as dictated by the problem so sketching to become easier. This product can be also used as a group activity, for collaborative learning, for enrichment and extra practice, as independent practice and homework assignment. Detailed typed answer keys are included. All the graphs are drawn as well. BONUS: I have included 4 additional sections for extra practice or enrichment. (These are without answer keys.)

This is an engaging card sort activity for studying the intervals of concavity and inflection points of given functions. The functions (common and composite) include polynomials, radical, exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric and inverse trigonometric expressions. They are specially selected so that each function has not more than one inflection point. Activity Directions: Students determine the intervals of concave up/concave down and the inflection points of each of 12 given functions. They are also given 16 cards each with a statement written on it. The statements concern the concavity and inflection points of the given functions and are true or false.

For extra practice, students can solve all the problems and find out how many of the improper integrals are divergent. (There are 30 different improper integrals in this activity total and 9 of them diverge). Answer keys are included.
