Wheeler High School To: From: Re: Honors Calculus and AP Calculus AB Students Mrs. Barry, Mrs. Massey, Mrs. Walls, and Mr. Furstein - Calculus Instructors Summer work AP Calculus AB and Honors Calculus are college level courses covering material traditionally taught in the first semester of college calculus. These courses are taught in one semester consisting of daily 90-minute classes. Students need a strong foundation to be ready for the rigorous work required throughout the term. Completing the review packet before the beginning of the course will help ensure a proper background. This packet consists of a review of topics studied in the pre-requisite math courses. Students should epect to work approimately 0 hours on this assignment. If you are taking AP Calculus AB, the packet should be turned in to your instructor on the first day of school, August 7, 0. If you are taking Honors Calculus, the packet should be turned in to your instructor on the first day of second semester, January 7, 04. The packet will be given a grade based on completeness and accuracy of solutions. Students are epected to show all work with logical steps. You must show your work for problems on separate paper. Do not list only an answer. Students enrolled in Honors Calculus and AP Calculus AB will be using a graphing calculator throughout the course. A TI 89 calculator will be available to AP Calculus students for use during the semester if they do not already have one. AP Calculus AB students will have the opportunity to continue studying Calculus for a second term through the BC Calculus course. The BC course will cover material traditionally taught in the second semester of college Calculus. The AB course is a prerequisite for BC Calculus. Students taking both the AB and BC courses and passing the AP Calculus BC test could earn up to 6 hours of college credit depending upon the Advanced Placement policy at the college. Some colleges also award credit for a passing score on the AP Calculus AB eam. Since the AP test is only offered in May, students taking only the AB course during the fall semester should be prepared to study for the test independently. The success of each student in the Honors Calculus or AP Calculus program depends upon diligent effort and practice of newly learned skills. Although a suggested assignment is given for each lesson, completion of some assignments is optional. The previous night s assignment will be reviewed in class each day and there will be ample opportunity to ask questions. Calculus is a challenging, stimulating, and dynamic field of mathematics and we look forward to sharing our enthusiasm for the material with you.
