WELCOME AP Chemistry 2015-2016 students!
As an Advanced Placement, College Board class, it is expected that students have the basic knowledge and ability acquired in first year chemistry and the ability level of Algebra II. The summer assignments that will be assigned will help students practice this knowledge and prepare a foundation of skills prior to the semester’s start.
We will be using Google Classroom for summer assignments and communication, as well as coursework through the year. Most colleges are moving to online platforms for submitting assignments, taking tests and communicating with students. By using Google Classroom, students will have practice using this platform and adjusting to its specifics. If your internet or computer access will be limited during the summer and you require paper copies of the assignments, please let me know as soon as possible.
Follow the steps below to register for our online class. Feel free to email me or ask questions if you get confused.
Step 1: Sign-in to your Google Drive Account using your account set up by the school district. If you have forgotten this login, talk to me ASAP about resetting the password. The user name should be your school ID@fusd1.org. If you have never used Google Drive before, try Password1 for the password.
Step 2: Now go to the website: classroom.google.com

Steps to opening and submitting assignments:
