AP CALCULUS SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Dear Prospective AP Calculus Student, Welcome to AP Calculus! This is a rigorous yet rewarding math course that will challenge you and develop your critical thinking and problem solving skills. Calculus is the beginning of the fusion of all of your previous math courses: Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, and Pre-Calculus. Problem solving in AP Calculus will be embedded with many skills, methods, and problem solving techniques which should have been mastered in the prerequisite courses listed above. Additionally, you should epect to allot a certain amount of time each night for homework and studying and for the first time in your mathematics career, you might need to attend tutoring with relative frequency. This class is designed to prepare you for the AP Calculus AB eam, which is the equivalent to your first semester of university level Calculus. Calculus will enhance your critical thinking skills and often require you to think outside of your comfort zone. For some of you, this is a natural skill, while for others, it is uncomfortable. There are many problems in this packet that are unfamiliar and it will be tempting to skip them. However, many of these questions are well within your capability despite their unfamiliarity so I encourage you to just go for it see what happens. Once you start working, you may find the concept is much less complicated than you anticipated. Please feel free to form study groups, collaborate and work together. An important distinction should be made between collaboration/group work and cheating. Working together is acceptable and absolutely encouraged, but it does mean that each member of the group is responsible for working out each problem, though it may be with the assistance of a classmate. An eample of cheating in a group work task would be taking answers from another student s work without having investigated and worked the problem personally. Cheating is taken very seriously and is completely unacceptable under all circumstances. This packet should be completed without the use of your calculator, unless indicated. You will learn to use your calculator as a resource this year, but you will also be required to be algebraically proficient without it. Please report all answers to four decimal places, if possible. In order to ensure that you have completed this packet and have mastered the included topics, the material will be tested within the first weeks of school. This will provide you with time to ask questions and be appropriately prepared if you do need etra help. This packet will be collected for a grade on the first day of class, and it is epected that appropriate supporting work is shown for all problems. Enjoy your summer! Do a little bit of studying, as a little bit of review will save you much time in the coming school year. If you need additional assistance, feel free to email me at the email address listed below. I am so looking forward to meeting you (or if you ve been in my PreCal class seeing you again) in the Fall! I will make myself available during the summer by appointment at Panera Bread in Mesquite. My cell phone number is 97-965-557. You may email or tet me with any questions you have or to set up an appointment for a tutoring session. Mr. Castle rcastle@mesquiteisd.org
