AP English III
Today in class we really focused in on our skills related to the AP Examination. First there was the Matchbox - the first of many - in which we collaborated in order to improve our ability to find the BEST answer when working through multiple choice.
From there, we went on to the Synthesis Question to determine some key skills and competencies involved in doing the assignment well. I've uploaded on Google Classroom the template documents that you will need to formalize your research question as it currently stands into a full Synthesis Prompt. Be sure to follow the instructions in the template documents as well as on the instruction sheet that I gave you today. This is the next step before you perform your outline as you are formalizing your question and your sources here.
Over the weekend you have the synthesis pack to begin on (if you finish it this weekend, get it turned in!) and then the reading for Monday - Dr. King's "Letter from a Birmingham City Jail". See the previous post for the link to the reading, or find it in 50 Essays.
English IV
This weekend the main task that you have is to prepare for the upcoming exam on all of the poems that we have read so far. I would recommend that you check out a copy of our Edge textbook so that you can reread and review the poems again this weekend before you are tested on them.
The study guide I gave today in class gives you some tasks to complete, a list of key literary devices, and some ideas of the types of questions you will see on Monday.
