AP Chemistry Summer Assignment Brookwood High School

AP Chemistry FAQ’s for 2015-2016

1. Is there a Summer Assignment? When is it due?

The Summer Assignment (yes, there is one) is due on the first day of school. Be aware that I do not accept late work. There is also a quiz over the summer assignment.

2. If I have questions on the summer assignment, what do I do?

Use your resources: Check your notes. Check on the internet. Contact your friends. Contact Mrs. Brock. Figure it out! This class is not easy. It is a lot more difficult that Accelerated Chemistry. You will need to be committed to work hard.

3. When does lab start?

AP Chemistry Lab will start the Monday and Tuesday after Labor Day. We will have labs during school before that.

4. Do I have to buy a lab notebook?

You do not need a lab notebook, however it is good practice to learn how to use one. It is also a record of all of your important lab work and may be used to approve credit for the lab. You can purchase one from Mrs. Brock at the start of school if you are interested.

5. How late does lab go?

Your lab is scheduled from 2:35-5:00. You may leave before 5:00 IF you have completed the lab and you have been checked out by Mrs. Brock. Do not schedule yourself to work on lab day.

6. Do I have to go to both Monday and Tuesday labs?

You will choose the day that works best for your schedule (not your lab partner’s). Remember this is a required part of AP Science curriculum. It is your class. Only excused absences will be excused. In other words, if your partner can’t be in lab because he (or she) is sick, you are still expected to be in lab. Your partner’s absence would be excused (assuming the school considers the absence as excused, but your absence would be considered skipping.

7. What happens if I am sick on a lab day?

First and foremost, contact Mrs. Brock! () If the absence is excused, you may make up ONE lab per quarter. Make-up lab is the last week of the quarter. You will have a zero in the gradebook until the lab is made up.

8. What do I wear on lab days?

Dress in closed-toe shoes and sleeves, but not loose clothing.

9. What do I do if I need extra help?

Look on the internet for help, not for answers. Mrs. Brock is available for help during SKORE. Sign up for SKORE tutoring on the Simon Kenton webpage.

Other noteworthy points:

  • Sign up for Remind. I will use this resource to remind you of things throughout the year.
  • Never settle for less than your best!
  • Be responsible for your own work.
  • Stay on top of your work. Do not fall behind.
  • Use your resources.
  • Form study groups.
  • Stay organized.
