Here is the 2nd page where you can find resources to help you prepare to review for the test. 

 

  1. "AP Calc AB in One Page" - should have all the formulas we covered in class.
  2. "Calc Terms AB BC Review When you see this do this" - This is good practice to help you better understand the directions of an AP problem and what to do.

AP Prep.
 
As we head into spring break and prepping for the AP test, here are the stations for you to practice with.  Also posted are the notes for the different types of FRQs we went over in class in case you were absent.
 
Here is a link to access past AP Free Response Questions (FRQs) http://apcentral.collegeboard.com/apc/members/exam/exam_information/232050.html
We will do some in class so you get a feel for the scoring.

Here is the 3rd set of review materials which are mostly useful youtube links from Krista King who has a good website that has a whole Calculus series you might find helpful.  The last link is how to use your TI calculator.  

Here is the link to the Calculus section

Today we covered slopefields and you were assigned the homework.  Here are the answers and annotated notes we took in class.
 
Please note that you might not be able to do all of the parts to problems 17 and 18 just yet.  I put the answers if you want to try to figure it out but we will be starting that discussion in the second half of tomorrows class.
 
In the meantime I created a problem 19 that you should be able to do and have posted the answers for this new problem as well.  Study hard!
 
Here is another video to summarize what we did in class
 
 
If you want to see a slope field generator here is what desmos has so you can check your work as well.

These last couple of days we have gone over the concept of approximating the area under a curve and transitioning to finding the exact area.  We are still focused on notation and conceptual understanding and soon we will move to finding the areas of functions that are not lines or related to circles.
 
Our assessment on this material will be on Tuesday.

Here is the competition information that I told you about in class that related to the Linguistics Competition.  
 
The North American Computational Linguistics Olympiad (NACLO). NACLO is an annual pencil and paper contest in which students use analytical skills to solve puzzles in languages that they do not know. In the course of solving the puzzles, students learn something about the structure of human languages and how computers can process them. The contest introduces students to possible careers in linguistics, languages, and computer science.
 
There are no registration fees to enter NACLO and we provide parking and waiting areas for parent chaperones (with coffee/water/wifi). The exam is Thursday, January 24, from 9 am until noon at USC's Information Sciences Institute in Marina del Rey (note: not on USC's main campus). We ask participants to arrive at 8:30 so we get prepared to start at 9. Registration is at nacloweb.org
 
Students who do well in the first round will be invited back to the second round in March, where the problems will be more difficult. The top students from the second round will be invited to the international competition in South Korea later this year.
 
So if this interests you sign up!!!
