IB Math SL (Class 24)
Lesson Title
Lesson for PS 7: The Derivative Function
Overview
In today’s class we take a step further into Calculus by asking “Does a function have a derivative at every point?” This leads us to “functionizing” the derivative.
Derivative Function 1
Vocabulary
function
independent variable
dependent variable
with respect to
rate of change
limit
derivative
Key Attitudes
Willingness to work as a group to help meet individual and group goals.
Key Ideas
I can explain what is meant by “derivative function”.
I can determine over what interval a function is differentiable given the graph of the function.
When given four graphs, I can determine if any two represent a function and its derivative function.
I can sketch the graph of the derivative function when given the graph of a function.
I can sketch the graph of a function without using a calculator and then create a graph of the derivative function.
