Applications of Integration: Area and Volume
Students will apply integration to calculate areas between curves and volumes of solids of revolution.
Key Questions
- Analyze how integration extends the concept of area to regions bounded by curves.
- Explain the disk/washer method and the shell method for calculating volumes of revolution.
- Construct the area of a region bounded by two functions.

5E Model
The 5E Model structures lessons through five phases (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate), guiding students from curiosity to deep understanding through inquiry-based learning.
unit plannerMath Unit
Plan a multi-week math unit with conceptual coherence: from building number sense and procedural fluency to applying skills in context and developing mathematical reasoning across a connected sequence of lessons.
rubricMath Rubric
Build a math rubric that assesses problem-solving, mathematical reasoning, and communication alongside procedural accuracy, giving students feedback on how they think, not just whether they got the right answer.
