What will be in the Teacher Package?
+ PowerPoint presentations for every lesson (On a CD that you can use on your laptop or your desktop computer) to teach your students every day. The laptop (desktop) version includes lectures similar to the iPad version. The important difference between them is that the iPad version is for individual use only, while the CD for the laptop (desktop) is designed so that you can present these lectures to your students. Please note that presenting the lectures from the iPad is against copyright protection law, similarly to showing rented movies to a big group of people.
+ Lesson plans (what topics to cover/review every day)
The lesson plans that I offer form a crucial part of students’ success on the AP Test. I spread out time exactly the way that works best, in my experience, for every topic to be covered, understood, and reviewed - not any more, and not any less. I have learned this as a result of years of trial and error, working on and making constant modifications and improvements to my lesson plans. + Worksheets to prepare for the AP Test (every question specifically designed to practice a certain skill or concept) These every day worksheets (for each topic) with Multiple Choice Questions are a necessary addition to the textbook problems, meant to help students to do well on the AP Test. + as a bonus I will also share with you my Packet of Free Response problems (from actual past AP tests). Free response questions that I assign are carefully chosen and given on the days when it makes sense for them to be assigned. The level of difficulty is also carefully chosen for the time they are assigned. The packet with FR problems is organized in the order they are assigned. Packages come either with a 3-year limited use license or a life-time license. Usage is for your class only and you are under no circumstances allowed to distribute the PowerPoint lectures to students or any "Teachers Package" materials to other teachers. |
Teacher Testimonials for the Teacher packages
"I highly recommend both the Precalculus and the AP Calculus teacher packages from the Mathboat team. Using the Powerpoints have been life changing for me. This is my 29th year teaching. What a difference a good quality Powerpoint can make in the classroom. It's like having your lesson plan up in lights. I have attempted to make my own, but it is very time consuming. Thank you Rita for providing a good quality product." Linda Muratore
“ I purchased this set last year… They are great!...The ppts are clear and concise and the students love the designs. The worksheets are very rigorous and cover a variety of applications.” Amy Edmonson
"The PowerPoint example problems are incredibly well chosen and organized, and the presentation of the steps to obtain the solution is very helpful for students who were unable to obtain the correct solution the first time on their own. The Multiple Choice Practice worksheets are also excellent in terms of the selection of problems with quality "distractor" choices." Hank Moore
"Since this was my first year teaching AP Calculus, I wasn't very sure about the pacing and the depth at which each topic needed to be covered. The lesson plan guide in Mathboat teacher package helped me with the pacing and PowerPoint presentations which were also part of the package helped me with presenting information tailored for the AP Calculus Class. Using these resources together with the book " Multiple choice questions..." also from Mrs. Rita and reviewing questions from the past exam papers enabled 5 out of 9 students to get a "5" and the remaining 4 students to get a score of "4". Thank you Mrs. Rita for these high quality materials!" Isaiah Gudipati
"I purchased this program for my BC calculus class and I will be the first to admit that my only mistake was not buying this sooner! This program is completely comprehensive, it is very thorough and is actually very close to real AP questions, but is even more challenging than past AP questions, which is a GOOD THING! My students felt VERY prepared for the AP exam this year … I must fully recommend this to anyone teaching AP" Calculus!" Miguel Acosta
"I purchased this two years ago for my AB Calculus classes and absolutely love it! Rita has dedicated unlimited time and effort into developing a resource so extraordinary and easy to use. My students love the power point demonstrations and being able to help them visually comprehend difficult topics is so helpful…The worksheets that are included challenge the students and enforce the topics. I highly recommend this product to any Calculus teacher, especially new ones!" Christine Baccaro
"I have just completed my 4th year teaching Calc AB and my 1st year teaching Calc BC…Without Rita's powerpoint notes, I would have spent all of my prep time creating class presentations instead of preparing to teach. I highly recommend the powerpoints, especially to new Calculus teachers. These will save your sanity." Glen Conradson
"I have used Mathboat's BC teacher package. It has been a lifesaver. It not only gives you organized clear ready to use presentations, it helps me to keep a good pace so I am sure to cover the curriculum. Love it. Well worth the price." - Teresa Barnhardt
"This is my first year teaching Calculus AB and I found the mathboat package a great tool that helped me enjoy teaching the course. Beside very clear and well organized power points lessons, we have access to worksheets and detailed power points solution to the worksheets. The package includes the set of all the required topics to be covered, so not to worry about missing any content from the course. It saved me 80% of my preparation time and now I am using my time to do more readings and looking for a variety of resources and more application when needed. I also have to mention the services after the purchase: The team is amazing in the follow up on any changes required by the college board as well as in assisting you in case you have any question or difficulty. I highly recommend this product." - G.J.
"I can say that I enjoy using your powerpoints and the students like them as well. I think your worksheets also work nicely because almost every single problem is solved differently than the others - they aren't solving 10 problems that are all of the same type as you get in the textbooks and other material. I had 81 BC students. 76 of them got 5's, 5 of them got 4's. I had 37 AB students. 30 of them got 5's, 6 of them got 4's, and there was one 2. I was very pleased and so were the students." Gregg K, China.
"I just accessed my AP scores. THANK YOU!!!!! Your materials were exactly the way I wanted to organize my AP course but never had the time to devote to the project. Using your materials, I had the best scores in the 5 years I have taught BC. 90% of my students passed AB and 85% passed BC. The number of fives increased dramatically from previous years. I cannot thank you enough for the work you put in plus your willingness to share your materials!!! I know ultimately that the scores are a reflection of the work and effort that the students put in, but having materials of the quality that you have created made so many aspects of the course so much easier for my students and for me." - Denis Bergstedt
"Thank you again for your Calculus package. The students are finding your work very challenging, and for me it is crucial to have them see AP style explanations. They are getting a major hang of things, and its also great to learn myself the rigor of what these students should be dealing with on a daily basis." - Manuel N.
“I received the Mathboat program very late in the school year. I was only able to use a few of the worksheets. My students' AP scores were the best they have ever been! I believe the level of rigor in the worksheets had something to do with that. I am anxious to use the entire program starting in September for my AB and BC students.” -Jim C.
“I purchased the AB Teacher package late into the school year. So, I used only the chapters on integration and volume. I surveyed students and they were very positive about the lessons and I found the homework to be of a good length, challenging but doable for most of my students who were quite week at m/c questions. I am happy to report that … they seemed to do much better on the m/c section than they have in the past and I attribute much of this to the practice they had with your program. Overall the scores were better than in the recent past. I will start my new year out with the Mathboat program. Thank you for putting out such a great product and thank you for making so easy to use right out of the box as they say” - Holly S.

“My students did extremely well and I was so pleased and proud of their results. One improvement over the past year was that
no student earned a score of 1 – something I always strive for.

Your website and programs have been helpful in aiding me with numerous supplements that the students are able to complete and use as review material. “ - Christine N.

I do feel that what I did with the Mathboat material made a huge difference.” Erica D.
“This was my second year teaching AP Calculus AB, and my second year using the Mathboat program. I believe that the Mathboat program has been helpful, and I am fairly pleased with my students’ scores on the AP Exam (50% scored 5 and 90% scored 3 or higher).
