                                 Algebra II, and Pre-Calculus

         The Calculus AB course is primarily concerned with  developing
         the  students’  understanding  of  the  concepts  of  calculus  and
         providing  experience  with  its  methods  and  applications.  The
         course emphasizes a multi-representational approach to  calcu-
         lus,  with  concepts,  results,  and  problems  being  expressed
         graphically, numerically, analytically, and  verbally.
