Homework for B Day - 8 January

AP Seminar

We just keep on moving forward, don't we. I hope that today's writing workshop on using transitions, key language, and citations in an effort to help your reader follow your ideas was helpful. By this point, you should be actively building your Annotated Bibliography. Be sure that you use the documents that you already have in order to produce a good quality piece of work.

Next class we'll stay engaged with building our work. Remember that your AB is due on the 14th, just about a week from now!

Advanced Russian

We are building our cards and building our knowledge. Today we reviewed our prepositions, our verb that means to go by transit, and the ideas of the A, B, and C contexts. As we continue to learn new information, continue to practice and review.

We also discussed in earnest the elements of the poet project. Remember that there are two parts - the biography and slide show (in English) and the memorization (in Russian). By the end of today you should begin your research and start outlining your slides. Check out the study guide for the Olympiada if you are going to compete - it's in Google Classroom - so that you can begin to prepare for the competitions.

Related to grammar - we have exercise 37, 44, and 46 on the paper we worked on today. You should also consider any work related to reassessments on old tests or projects. Know your conjugations and your cases!

Russian I

Tonight for homework you should continue to study and review the two cases that we are focused on this week - accusative and prepositional. Remember that these two cases have two very different jobs - and that will help us to use each of them appropriately. As you are working through Exercise 1.8 A and D in your textbook - fill in the blank by putting the word in the appropriate case. 

You should also continue to work on your poetry memorization. Remember that the memorization isn't due until the end of the month, but the English based biography will be due much sooner. Lastly, stay aware of your grade in PowerSchool - if you are missing a unit test, or a project, or you would like to re-do the project/unit test, you have very little time remaining to complete this!
