Famous Curves Project
This is a project for the first unit of Calculus - right after the students learn the definition of the derivative and how to find the slope of the tangent line to the graph. Students will first choose a famous curve, make a poster of the equation with graph, take the derivative, find the slope of the tangent line and the equation of the tangent line at two points on the graph, they will also find a few things about the history of the curve. The assignment also comes with a rubric to grade it

Real Life Math - Where am I ever going to use this? End of year project
Have your students ever asked "Where am I ever gonna use this in real life?". Well, they'll be able to answer that questions after doing this assignment. In this assignment, students will research the math topic in depth including the mathematician who discovered it, where it is used in real life and how. This is great for an end of year, end of the quarter or extra credit assignment or just for a break in the action. Included in this 6 page packet are instructions/description of assignment
A Tale of Two Mathematicians - An interactive Play
After my students completed the AP Calculus Exam during my first year of teaching AP Calculus, I continued covering material from our calculus text. However, the students struggled because the material was more difficult and, more realistically, their enthusiasm had diminished significantly after the demanding schedule that led up to the AP Exam. Therefore, I began looking for alternative mathematics that could be used to motivate students and maintain their interest after completing the AP Ex

End Of Year Mathematician Project - Algebra 2/Calculus/PreCalculus
This is a great project for the end of the year! Students are required to research a famous mathematician (they can choose one not listed as well) and create a research paper using the guidelines within the project. There is also an option to have your kids do a presentation (which I love!) with the guidelines provided as well. Rubrics are given for both the paper and presentation! Enjoy!

End of Year Math Project - I can teach __________!
So it is the end of the year. You're burnt out. The kids are burnt out. But you need to review for the Final Exams/End of Year Testing. Here is a great project for your students that will get them engaged and have them reviewing the material without the class getting bored with the same old examples.
In this project, students have just been hired as the new (Insert Subject Here) Teacher at their school! Now it is their job to teach the rest of the class what they need to know for the end of ye

Calculus Career Project
Are you looking for an interesting and educational project to give to your Calculus students? You found one! So many times my students have asked what this higher level mathematics can do for them and how they can use it in the future. This project gives the kids an opportunity to not only see how math is used in careers but also what kind of schooling is required and what kind of salaries they can make using mathematics for a living! The project details and scoring rubric is attached!

Famous Mathematician Bingo and Research Project
I realized that my students knew very little about the mathematicians behind the math they were learning and I decided to give them an opportunity to gain some background knowledge. I went to Wikipedia to create brief bios for 24 influential mathematicians and then turned that information into a game of bingo. After hearing a little about each mathematician during bingo, students will choose 1 mathematician to research further and create a resume for.Included:-Bingo board for students to fill in
Area Under the Curve - Calculus
This is a stand alone program written in Visual Basic. The program will find areas by LRAM, RRAM, Trapezoids, and Integration. The user may enter multiple coefficients for each function, choose the xmin and xmax, and choose the number of regions by which to divide the domain.
Functions include:
All 6 Trigonometric Functions, Common Log, Natural Log, Rational Functions to the 3rd degree, and Polynomials to the 5th degree.

When will the Earth stop spinning?
Every bit of knowledge can be very powerful in solving even highly complicated looking problems. In this study, I present a scientific (semi-empirical) path which leads the reader to the answer to the question: "When will the Earth stop spinning?". Practically, using the high school Physics and Math knowledge, that how a scientist would predict the fate of the Earth's spin is shown. I intend to make high school students, who have taken AP Physics classes, realize how powerful the knowledge they
SMOOTH GOLDEN EGGS
GOLDEN RATIO in EGG SHAPESHere, I use Golden Ratio to plot different egg shapes with smooth surfaces, with the help of a mathematical function I propose in this paper. It is an extremely fun activity you can conduct with your math students who have some knowledge on functions, limits, and derivatives. As mentioned above, in this paper, I intend to demonstrate how to plot smooth “Golden Eggs” using mathematical functions. In order to do that, I first review a proposed shape for a Golden Egg, whi
