Note: The below references Pre-Calculus Honors. For AP Computer Science Principles, see further below. Make sure you know your trigonometry, as that is essentially the entire first semester. Tests and quizzes are very similar to classwork. Also, if you don't understand something, get that cleared up ASAP, and material later on builds on it. Make sure you pay attention to whether or not certain assessments are approved for calculator usage, as some are not. Note: The below references AP Computer Science Principles The course is relatively easy enough. App Inventor (the programming language used for the course) is block-based. If you are new to programming, this may prove a slight challenge, but it isn't too hard to learn. In addition, as long as you do the classwork and turn assignments in on-time / early, you are free to do whatever you want during class. Make sure you review things you do in class, as that will prove helpful for tests. As of 2018, this was the curriculum used : https://course. mobilecsp. org/mobilecsp/

This teacher is one of my favorites in this district, and if you need to talk about anything, as long as you aren't disrupting class, she will listen. She can also be sassy, with quick comebacks. Consider yourself warned.
