AP Seminar

Next class is the class! We have our IWA due at the beginning of class. remember that you'll need to submit your IWA in hard-copy form as well as your rubric. After you submit them we will go on to the Oral Defense. You'll be asked to answer one question from each section. Be prepared! You know how you'll be scored, so it's all about working as hard as you can to accomplish those goals.

Lots of things going on right now as we are working on our in-class project as well as our out-of-class project. Tonight we have work for both of these assessment tasks. For our month of December project you should be focused on finishing your planning/visuals and writing your rough drafts. Use the template documents that I gave you today. Remember that you need to use a variety of time expressions in your writing that cover the month and the day (Russian III). Next class you should have a draft of your month paragraph (and a draft of one day - Russian III). We'll work in editing teams next class to review these.

For your out-of-class project we should focus on writing our script (Russian III) or writing our captions or other key vocabulary (Russian II). We will have some more time to work on these in class through the week.

Today in class we finished watching Doctor Zhivago and we put some sentences together related to our final project on writing about friends, ourselves, or family members. For tonight, there are a few things that you should be working on in order to prepare for the Chapter 1 Unit 1 Test.

1. Take a look over your most recent quiz. Review your vocabulary knowledge as well as your verb conjugation patterns and rules. I'll be asking you to do this work again on Friday as a chance to reassess and resubmit. Remember, you need to know how to do this for the test.
2. Study your vocabulary. Focus on three to five words a day and commit yourself to memorizing them or knowing them thoroughly.
3. Work on your projects. If you weren't able to finish the two paragraphs today, get those done tonight. You should be able to finish your projects on Wednesday in class. They're due on Friday.
