To Be Successful in A.P. Calculus
1. Attendance! Attendance!
Attendance!
Attend every class!
Don't participate in
senior skip day!
2. Attend review sessions on
Wednesday afternoon.
3. Do your homework every night,
and Show All Work!
Write down the original
problem; then begin
solving it.
Do not hand in just the
answers.
If you use a calculator,
show how you set up the
problem.
4. Do your own work. Be HONEST.
Please don't copy answers from
the back of the book (or from
a friend) and hand them in as
your own - that is plagiarism.
But do use the back of the
book to check your work - I
will check the even numbered
problems.
5. You must be a "risk-taker."
You must try each problem
that is assigned. Do NOT
leave problems blank on
homework.
6. Remain Positive!
Don't let this class or any
class (or life) get you down.
Keep things in perspective.
Be enthusiastic.
"Nothing was ever achieved
without enthusiasm." - Emerson
7. I have high expectations for
you, even on the first day!
I believe that students will
rise to the level of
expectation that the teacher
has for them!
