Dear Future AP Calculus AB Student!

I am so excited that you have chosen to take AP Calculus AB next year! Whether you are coming from Math 3 or Math 3/Precalc this class will be a fun challenge for you. In terms of workload, you will not have any assigned homework and classwork will not be graded. That being said, your grade will be made up of tests and quizzes. Don’t let that scare you, the quizzes are mainly simple memorization facts and all tests can be retaken for a better grade!

The math involved in calculus is fairly simple and can be used to explain a wide variety of real life situations. One of the most challenging aspects of calculus is that everything builds off of past knowledge. Unlike other math courses you have taken, everything we learn next year will all be connected and you will be required to remember it all. For a sneak peak, you could check out the calculus section in IXL!

On the first day of school we will have a super short quiz to put everything from PRE (before) calculus behind us. To make sure that you are fully prepared and don’t forget key concepts over summer vacation make sure to join the summer google classroom.

If you have any questions or concerns feel free to reach out to me via email or remind! Remember, you aren’t alone this summer completing these assignments and you won’t be alone next year in this class. You are now part of the AP Calc AB Family! I am so excited to get to know you next year. 

Have a great summer!!

Mrs. Casares

I love teaching this course and I'm excited to be your teacher next year. 

There is one requirement to join this course and it is to acknowledge that you are making a decision to take on a challenge and that you agree to help build a positive learning environment that helps your classmates and yourself take on that challenge together. 

This is the only requirement to join this course because it is the most important part of what makes a school year, and the course fun, interesting, and impactful. 

I love teaching this course and I'm excited to welcome back my former AP Human Geo students and be your teacher again, and I'm excited to meet all of the new faces and welcome you to my classroom!
