  1. Calculus X Mrs. Bailey

  2. Course Rationale The Calculus X curriculum is designed to give students a thorough introduction into limits, derivatives and integration. While it is not a course that would prepare the students for the AP exam in calculus, it will thoroughly prepare students to take Calculus in college if they choose to continue their mathematical studies in that direction.

  3. The Calculus Units are: Unit 1 – Precalculus Review Unit 2 – Functions, Limits & Continuity Unit 3 – Definition of the Derivative Unit 4 – Rules of Differentiation Unit 5 – Applications of Differentiation Unit 6 – Exponential and Logarithmic Functions Unit 7 – Antiderivatives and Integration Unit 8 – Area Between Curves Content Goals

  4. Materials Needed • 3-ring binder • graph paper (optional) • Graphing Calculator (TI-83 would be ok but 84 recommended)

  5. Grading • Class Participation/Assignments • Homework Assignments • Unit Tests & Quizzes • Midterm (& Final for non-seniors)

  6. Pinnacle Notes: • “0” means they were present but did not turn it in. A penalty would be given for these assignments if they were turned in. Depending upon the size of the assignment, late assignments may or may not be taken for any credit. (For example, a daily homework check would not be given partial credit if given in late. However, a larger assignment partial credit could be earned.) • “Z” means student still needs to turn in that assignment (or if in a test/quiz column, they need to make it up still). Pinnacle calculates it as a zero, so the lower grade will act as a reminder and encouragement to make sure it is gotten in. A “Z” is not an assignment which will penalized as long as it is made up by the time is agreed upon by me & the student. • “X” means student is excused from that assignment. Pinnacle does not treat it like a zero. An “X” means a student may make up that assignment if they like, but they do not have to.

  7. Extra Help Options: • Periods 2 or 7 by appointment with me • After school 2:20-2:45 by appointment with me • Achievement Center (mathaide & NHS tutors) all periods Rm 264

  8. Text: The course has an on-line text, which can be accessed from all internet ready devices and computers.
