The next two weeks, what it means for us!!!!

   Hi all, please stay safe over the next two weeks, but we have not heard anything about an AP test move date.  So we are going to post some material for you to preview and be looking through.  We are going to have to cover this material very quickly when we return, probably a 1-day summary of each at the most. 

We are going to post some suggested videos and accompanying notes that we highly suggest that you work through in your time at home.  These are not assignments that are worth a grade, but they will make your life easier when you return.

In addition remember you have some long term due dates that are still in effect.

A)  Hwk DCT and LCT (see blog, due the day after we return)
B)  AP practice test 2012 (due after spring break, but a good time to knock it out)
C)  AP Prediction packet (Not an assignment but again a  good time to get a lot done)
D)  Benchmark Review guide (Not an assignment but will be posted for your benefit)  Once I hear of a new Benchmark date it was to be the 24th, I will post it on the blog
E)  Check AP classroom as any assignments given there will be extra credit over break.  There will be a max of two during the two week period.


We will be using the site below is a great one to use to continue your learning:

Week 1:  Direct Comparison Test/Limit Comparison Test/ Alternating Series Test:

https://people.math.osu.edu/miller.4962/ximeraLessons/AST/story_html5.html  (this is a lesson on the alternating series test)


Week 2:  Ratio and Root test

Remember that the videos and other stuff that I post that is not bolded above is not due for any credit, but highly suggested that you work your way through it for our return.  This should be plenty to work on when you look at it in total.   It is essentially like you are in college and now are responsible for some of your own learning.  I will miss you and hope above all that you are safe and well, and look forward to when we can experience the joys of Calculus together again.

This blog will be our lifeline while we are out and definitely should be checked every couple of days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

See you soon,
Mr. Halstead
