Getting Ready for Next School Year
I am finding myself with a bit more free time these days now that the AP exams are over and seniors are gone, so I spent today getting all of my online platforms ready to go for AP Day.
What to do with Seniors after the AP exam?
The internet is chock full of ideas for how to spend the final weeks of school after the AP Calculus exam ends. Here are some academic ideas to continue their learning and some fun ways to spend your final days with your seniors!
Senior Projects + Shadowboxing
Today was day 1 of creating our polar design magnets in class, and, as usual when trying out a new activity, I learned A LOT along the way! Also, I now know what Shadowboxing is?!
Polar Project fun
This year, their “final exam” is a project, and I’m trying something new! I saw this idea in the “Desmos Educators” Facebook: creating a magnet using a polar graph design created in Desmos.
Deriver’s Licenses in AP Calculus
Last year, I began using Deriver’s Licenses as a fun way to recognize students for their mastery of increasingly complex differentiation skills.
AP Calculus Exam day goodie bags!
For the third year in a row, I created goodie bags to hand out to my students on the day of the exam. I love creating these to give them a little morale boost either right before or in the middle of the exam.
