In their pursuit of Academic Excellence, students in Mr. McClain's AP Precalculus class prepared for their AP Exam with a series of fun and collaborative review games. First, students played Trashketball, answering calculator-active Precalculus questions, writing their answers on pieces of paper, and tossing those crumpled up answers into a recycling bin (their score for making the shot depended on how many attempts they took to get the question correct).

Next, students played Castle Attack, answering non-calculator Precalculus questions. Each question had a different strength level (from 1 to 5), which corresponded to the number of shields they could either destroy on an opponent's castle or defend on their own castle. An attack against a castle without any shields defending it destroyed that castle. Great work, Crusaders!
