AP Calculus AB Summer Packet 2015
B.M.C. Durfee High School Mathematics Department Page 2
Welcome to AP Calculus Part AB. This will be the toughest class yet in your mathematical careers, but the benefit you will receive by having this experience in high school is immense. Because of the unique nature of this class, it is very important that you are ready to start working on the first day. We will NOT spending time to review the material in this packet. The reason for this is to make sure we have adequate time complete all of the required material for this course well before the AP exam. In AP Calculus, there are extremely high expectations of students taking the course. We expect a certain level of independence to be demonstrated by anyone taking AP Calculus. Your first opportunity to demonstrate your capabilities and resourcefulness to us is through this summer work packet which will help you maintain/improve your skills. This packet is a requirement for those entering AP Calculus AB and is due on the first day of class and will be counted as an assessment grade
There are certain math skills that have been taught to you over the previous years that are necessary to be successful in calculus. If you do not fully understand the topics in this packet, it is possible that you will get calculus problems wrong in the future not because you do not understand the calculus concept, but because you do not understand the algebra or trigonometry behind it. Don’t fake your way through any of these problems because you will need to understand the underlying concepts to be successful in this course. You may work with someone else while you do this, but copying will not be tolerated. Also, don’t wait until the last minute to do everything in the packet because you may run out of time and rush through them. Likewise, do not do all the problems right at the beginning of summer and completely forget how to do all of them by the time school starts again. For this packet you must show all of your work for the multiple choice questions on a separate sheet of paper and fill in your answers on the attached answer sheet. Also, do not rely on a calculator to do all of the work for you. Half of the AP exam does not allow any calculator at all. This packet will be worth a test grade. Enjoy your summer and don’t forget about the packet. September will be here before you know it! If you lose your packet, you will be able to access the packets on-line at the school website or a copy can be picked up in the Registrar’s office. Best of luck with the assignment! I look forward to seeing you in September! Mrs. Brogan
