Are You suprised
Dominion Math Department
June, 2016
Welcome to Calculus AB! We are very excited that you have chosen this course and we look forward to working with you over the next year. Calculus is very different than many of the math classes that you have taken in previous years. It requires that you be able to readily access any of the skills and concepts that you have acquired over your previous math courses.
As we embark on this journey, several questions arise:
1) How do I make sure that I am ready for this course?
To help you be as successful as possible, we have put together a packet that will help you refine your pre-requisite skills. There are 8 sections to this packet along with a suggested pacing guide to assist you. The questions will be graded for completion and there will be a quiz at the end of the second week of school that will cover all of the pre-requisite material.
2) What do I do if I don't remember a lot of the pre-requisite skills?
You can email us for help on content specific questions or check out some of the great online tutorials such as Khan Academy.
3) What tools will I need to be successful?
A positive attitude and good study habits are your most powerful tools to ensure success in this course. These include, but are not limited to, having a willingness to come and ask questions when you are confused, taking good notes, actively participating in class, completing your homework on time, studying for tests/quizzes, and correcting incorrect answers on homework and tests/quizzes. A well-organized notebook, paper, pencils, and a graphing calculator (TI-84/TI-89) are required. You may check out a graphing calculator from the math department at the beginning of the school year.
4) An AP course is a lot of work. How much should I expect from Calculus AB?
Calculus is a demanding course and will require an average of approximately 60 minutes of homework time for every 90-minute block.
5) What are the requirements at the end of the course?
AP Calculus is intended for serious math students who plan to take higher-level mathematics and/or science courses in college. The curriculum, pace, and rigor of the AP Calculus AB course is determined by College Board guidelines. All enrolled students are required to prepare to take the AP exam, so it is taught as if EVERYONE is planning on taking the exam. At the end of the year you have 2 choices: 1) take the AP exam which will be administered on Tuesday, May 9th or 2) take an alternate AP exam which will count towards their 4th quarter grade. No exceptions will be given!
Have a wonderful summer and please be responsible about pacing yourself so you can turn in your assignments on time. We look forward to working with you next year!
