Handouts
  • 35, Walsh, Investigating Released AP Questions Grades 6_ 12.pdf (3.4 MB)

  • Participants will investigate released AP Calculus test questions and learn how middle school and high school students can correctly answer them, using mathematics they already know. We will use estimation and Riemann sums to solve with definite integrals, and rates of change to solve problems that calculus students solve with derivatives.

    Presentation Format: Preservice and Inservice Session
    Grade Band Audience: 6 to 8, 9 to 12
