I have wanted to do a review activity centered around some type of "Math Madness" competition for a long time, but couldn't quite figure out the logistics of how to make it work. I was inspired by a post on the AP Calculus Facebook Teachers Group and I decided to give this a try in my classroom.
Here's what I did...
First, it was important to me to keep each student involved in this activity for as long as possible, so I decided to have a Double Elimination Tournament. I have 22 students in Calculus AB, so I googled 22 team double elimination brackets, and found a perfect bracket already made at
Print Your Brackets.
