PRE-AP CALCULUS
SUMMER REVIEW PACKET
Name: ______________________________________________________________________
1. You are expected to work on this packet throughout the summer to keep your skills fresh.
2. This packet is to be handed in to your Pre AP Calculus teacher on the first day of the school
year.
3. All work must be shown in the packet OR on separate paper attached to the packet. 4. Completion of this packet will be counted toward your first quarter grade.
5. An assessment of these skills WILL occur the first week of school.
These are the skills you should be proficient in performing before you get to Pre-AP
Calculus.
