AP Calculus AB/BC/Honors Summer Work and Supply List

Want to take Calculus next year?
WONDERFUL!
I am happy to have you. Please click the link below to access the information about the summer work associated with the course. 
A few important points:
Honors, AB and BC Summer work are similar, but BC does require more!
AB and Honors Students: You are expected to complete all of the work that is assigned prior to the first day of school. 
BC Students: You are also expected to complete all of the work that is assigned as well as watch the videos and complete the notes and homework for Unit 1.
 
All information need to complete these assignments are in the link below.
 
 Never hesitate to reach out if you have any questions!
 
What materials will you need for this course?
 
Students will be given PDF copies of notes for class that need to be brought to class, electronically or printed. Therefore, students should have materials that they feel will best keep them organized. The following list contains some examples of what students could use for organizational purposes for this class, along with basic materials that we will use often in class.
 
  • 2-inch Binder (optional)
  • Binder Tabs (optional)
  • Colored pens and pencils (optional)
  • Expo Markers (optional)
  • TI-83, TI-84, or TI-NSpire Calculator**
  • Pencils
  • Blue or Black Ink Pens
  • Lined Paper
 
**With this being a high level of math, I would recommend that students have their own personal calculator so that they can use it at home. However, it is not required. I have a class set of calculators that students may use in class and there are many apps that students can download on their electronic devices to have access to a similar calculator at home.
