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!
