The 2023 AP Calculus AB scores: 5: 22%; 4: 16%; 3: 20%; 2: 22%; 1: 20%. This is a hefty increase over last year, rivaling pre-pandemic performance; exciting to see this strong recovery, given the pandemic’s impact on math sequences/proficiency.

@AHSAAUpdates Is there a score update for this game?

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

Today in #APCalculus we made 3D solids with different cross sections out of #playdoh #APCalRocks @iteachmathcalc #MTBOS

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

Check out the #unitcircle plates we made in #precal today!! Exploring connections to #geometry and prior knowledge about #trig #iteachmath #precalculus #mtbos #algebra2trig @iteachmathPC

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

I LOVE Trigonometry! In #PreCal, we have been exploring the #UnitCircle by using prior knowledge from #Geometry and making connections to #model the Unit… https://t.co/GSCzAmZ0LM

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

@MsAlison314 I sent it. 😊

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

Unit Circle game with #PreCalc So much fun helping students make more connections with #geometry & #Trig #iteachmath #MTBoS @iteachmathAll

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

@MsAlison314 I can email you the handout that was given to me if you would like?

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

Receiving a lot of good information at the @ACT Workshop today. #ACTCCRW

WHY we teach is different than WHAT we teach. So many times we are focused on our what that we forget about our why and as a result become discouraged. Let your why motivate your what. #howsyourWHY #letWHYmotivateWHAT #DoSomething #acaeagles #proudtobeaneagle

TFW you can count the number of days left on your fingers

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

I am so proud of my #APCal students!! I could not have asked for a better first group!! I hope they rock their exam tomorrow.

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

@ProfeKT_Santana Wow!! This is awesome!!

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

@druinok Any FR problems dealing with area using Riemann sums I think could be adapted for geometry use. Also some of the basic theorems that make sense like Mean Value Theorem. #layingthefoundation materials are great also!! They make connections to ap in their curriculum.

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

@sagold @iteachmathAll @iteachmathPC Awesome!! Thank you!! Love that physics website! 😁

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

@sagold @iteachmathAll @iteachmathPC Is this the clip you are referring to?? https://t.co/bLbATRuI68

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

#MTBoS I am looking for some good stuff on teaching vectors in #PreCal Anyone have some awesome ideas? #iteachmath @iteachmathPC

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

@thstigerpride @bbarronx4 Haha!! It just isn’t Christmas time without a great rendition of “O Calculus” or “The 12 days of Calculus” 😂😂😂

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

@bbarronx4 @iteachmathcalc Thank you!! I’ll google it and see what I can find. I do love a good mathy carol. 😜

[Taylor Horn @the_math_hatter]

Any of my #apcal friends have a great version of “The 12 days of Calculus”. I googled it and found a few but I’m still looking. #iTeachMath @iteachmathcalc #christmasmathcarols

@MsKarpinski I think if Ss have a good understanding of how functions work, then that would lead to a deep understanding for predictions from the line of best fit.
