Curriculum Paper for A.P. Statistics
See also "Downloads" at the bottom of this page


Standards Based Curriculum Paper

Course: Grade 11 – 12 Advanced Placement Statistics Instructor: Ms. E. Allen




Course Description: This course, as prescribed by the College Board, includes the following major topics: Exploring data - observing patterns and departures from data; Planning a study - deciding what and how to measure; Anticipating patterns - producing models using probability theory and simulation; and Statistical inference - confirming models.

Required Course Texts:

Your text is The Practice of Statistics, 2nd edition. Please bring it to class each day unless you are specifically told otherwise. You may keep your copy of Barron's How to Prepare for the AP Statistics Advanced Placement Examination at home to use to study for tests and quizzes.

Required Materials:

You should have a 3-ring binder with notebook paper and dividers; pens and pencils (and erasers!); and you will also need graph paper and a ruler. You will need a graphing calculator - the TI - 83 or TI-84 are the best models for the work that we will be doing. Throughout the year you will receive handouts and practice AP problems. It is VERY important that you keep all of these, as well as corrected tests and quizzes, in your notebook, especially anything printed on colored paper.

Workload and Assessment:

There is a mandatory state-wide grading scale: 100 - 90 earns an A; 89 - 80, B; 79 - 70, C; 69 - 60, D. Your nine-weeks grade will include your test grades; a homework/classwork grade; and quizzes. You will have a series of short or long term projects, grades for which will be included in the quarter in which they are completed. During the 4th quarter, you will have a notebook check instead of a project. Cumulative semester exams will be given in January and May, or at a time determined by the school testing calendar. During the 4th quarter you will be taking AP tests and will have fewer unit tests; therefore, other grades such as homework carry even more weight than usual.

If you are absent the class before a scheduled test, which usually is a review day, you will take the test as scheduled. If you are absent from the class before and/or the day of the test, you will be given a make-up test the day you return. Otherwise, it is preferable that you make arrangements to make up your work before school.



Attendance Policy

In order to earn a passing grade in a course, any student who misses more than four classes, not including school-related absences, will be required to pass a comprehensive quarter exam or project, in addition to having an overall passing grade for the quarter. Students who fail because of the attendance policy are not eligible for grade recovery.

A student must be in class for at least half the period to be considered present.


Tentative Schedule:

1st Quarter Chapters 1, 2, 3, & 4

2nd Quarter Chapters 5, 6, 7, & 8 Semester Exam

3rd Quarter Chapters 9, 10, 11, 12

4th Quarter Chapters 13, 14 Notebook check

A.P. Review, A.P. exam
