1 Summer Assignment - PreAP PreCalculus Summer 2018 To All future students for the school year : For the Precalculus course, students must have a tool belt of required skills and understanding to allow for them to be successful in the course. These skills reach as far back as their 6th/7th grade math class and is inclusive of every math class afterwards. It is important for students to not only have the abilities to complete math problems that deal with these skills, but also be able to accurately ascertain which skills are required to complete a myriad of mathematical challenges that Precalculus provides to them. The overall objective is to prepare students for future success in advanced mathematical courses such as Calculus. This assignment is broken into levels that illustrate the level of mastery and understanding a student is demonstrating when completing these problems. As a student moves to a higher level, s/he brings along with them the skills they have acquired in the previous level. These skills become prerequisites for the next level and are important to the student s success as they continually strive to level up their mastery and understanding. The level system for this assignment is broken down as follows: Level 1 - Algebra 1 understanding Level 2 - Advanced Algebra 1 / Geometric Understanding Level 3 - Algebra 2 Understanding & Comprehension (This is where you want to start this course) Level 4 - Advanced Algebra 2 understanding, comprehension, and mastery For a Precalculus student, ideally you want them operating at level 3 and above. Students who find themselves only being able to complete level 2 type questions should make the realization that additional assistance may be required (tutorials, additional resources to supplement learning, etc.) to help them reach level 3 and beyond. It is important for students to understand that we want them to finish the course being able to consistently complete level 3 / 4 type problems, but that from time to time within the course they may see a regression to level 2 / 1 problems based on complexity and content. They must keep in mind the overall goal of the course is to continuously work to reach that goal even when difficulties and challenges manifest themselves. A student being able to persevere and achieve higher and higher levels will find success overall in future mathematical endeavors. WIth that said, if students require some additional assistance, they can Google search each topic and/or problem, but can also look to these websites for help/support. They websites are: Remember to work on this assignment throughout the summer and if you have any questions, please reach out to roger.thurman@huttoisd.net for questions or utilize the above resources for additional insight and support. Good luck and look forward to see you in the fall.
