AP CALCULUS DESCRIPTION
3 trimester course
Instructor: Ms. Bosman Grade Level: 11-12
Prerequisite: B or better in PC Functions & PC Trig AND teacher recommendation
Advanced Placement Calculus is a yearlong course of study on the two main topics of calculus: the derivative and the integral. A study of limits is also included along with applications of derivatives and integrals. The rigorous pace of this class will demand a serious commitment of time outside of school. The curriculum is designed to prepare students for the AP Calculus AB exam in May, possibly earning college credit.
A REQUIRED SUMMER ASSIGNMENT WILL BE GIVEN TO STUDENTS THE LAST WEEK OF SCHOOL. AN ASSESSMENT OF THE REQUIRED ASSIGNMENT WILL BE ADMINISTERED THE FIRST WEEK OF CLASS.
Students are accepted into AP Calc based on:
1. Seniors will be given priority consideration
2. Grades in previous math courses
