Understand continuity in terms of limits.


Remarks


Example 1: Show that  f(x)=3x + 1 is continuous at x = 2 by finding  and comparing it with f(2).

Example 2: Given that the limg(x) as x approaches to 5 exists, is the statement “g(x) is continuous at x=5” necessarily true? Provide example functions to support your conclusion. 

General Information

Subject Area: Mathematics
Grade: 912
Domain-Subdomain: Calculus
Cluster: Limits and Continuity - Develop an understanding of the concept of limit by estimating limits graphically and numerically and evaluating limits analytically. Extend the idea of a limit to one-sided limits and limits at infinity. Use limits to define and understand the concept of continuity, decide whether a function is continuous at a point, and find types of discontinuities. Understand and apply continuity theorems.

Lesson Plan

Name Description
Leap Frog Review Game

In this lesson students will demonstrate their knowledge of limits, graphing, and exact trig limits evaluated using substitution. The students will play a game in which they evaluate their knowledge of problems in the unit while it serves as a formative assessment for the teacher. The students receive immediate feedback on their work while the teacher works the problems, correcting errors or misconceptions. This lesson gives the student a power review of the concepts in the unit because the timing is determined by the teacher. All students are engaged and focused while playing this game. Giving students access to the PowerPoint of the game after the lesson provides a good study tool for the students.
