AP Calculus Optimization Discovery Project with M&Ms!
Optimization is a tricky topic in calculus. This one-day activity allows students to discover how calculus can help them. Each student (or small group) starts with an index card, which will be cut and folded up to form a box. First they calculate what would happen if the box is made various ways, and see that the volume changes depending on the size of the cuts.Next students develop an equation and apply calculus to determine how to create a box with maximum volume - so that they can fill it up

Volume by Cross Sections Project
This is a poster project whereby students create 3-dimensional models of physical objects by using cross sections. Students determine what functions to use for their base regions and the cross sections. They use a spreadsheet to calculate the Riemann sum for their objects and compare their calculations to their integral values. Students have a lot of fun with this project and they get very creative. I recommend that you allow at least 3 weeks for the project and require them to submit their
