Drag rhythmic values into up to 8 beat blocks per line to build a drum groove, or click a tile then click a block to place it — handy on a trackpad.
Math skill: Apply d/dx[uv] = u'v + uv'
How the beat teaches it: Every slot gives a product of two polynomial factors — apply the product rule, then evaluate at the given point. Build that many notes anywhere in the kit.
This is lesson 10 of 24 in RockBlocks Math, Calculus I, a free course where every lesson turns a math idea into something you can count, hear, and play. The previous lesson, “Derivative of a Polynomial,” covered differentiate Term by Term Using the Sum and Power Rules. Next is Lesson 11, “The Quotient Rule.”
Every slot above (A, B, C, D) is its own question, and it’s a real, blank RockBlocks beat the whole time — the same drag-and-drop tiles, kit, tempo, sheet music, and drummer view as anywhere else on the site. Tap ❓ Questionin the corner to read the current slot’s problem, build your answer right in the grid, then tap ✓ Check Answerto grade it. Once you’re done, keep going: expand the beat, drop it into a Stack, or save a copy to your own page — nothing here overwrites the lesson itself, so every visitor still starts from the same blank slots.
