Homework for the Weekend - B Day - 12 April 2019

Hi All - Remember that with the holiday next week and the teacher workday we will only have ONE B-Day next week.

AP Seminar

We're focused on finishing. And that's the phrase to take with you on into this weekend. As we are working this weekend it is important that we are finalizing our IWA and then completing our slides related to our IMP. Keep in mind the alignment between these two documents as you are working. I've really enjoyed seeing so many of you helping each other out and working to support each other! Keep doing this!

Next class I would like to see a lot of you with your slides on the board. Remember that it is a good idea to look at them on the board before you are presenting. Also remember the timing requirements.

Use your rubrics and documents to help you during this time. I'm of course also available to help!

Advanced Russian

Today in class we were focused on reviewing (Russian II) or learning our last new concept (Russian III). No matter what, we were preparing for our final examination on this unit. At the end of class we had a bit of time to work on our final assignment of the year - the Russian Song assignment. I'll have a formal rubric and guidelines for you next class on this assignment.

Over the weekend, we should all be focused on completing our translation assignments. These translations are great overviews of the grammar topics in our units. Be sure that you can navigate these. If you are having trouble, focus on that topic in the translation to study and review. Remember, learning Russian comes by doing Russian. Be active in your studying.

Russian I

Today we took our examination on Units 1 and 2 - focusing on the essential elements of Russian grammar. I'll have your exams graded and returned to you soon so that you can prepare for a reassessment if needed.

Over the weekend you should complete your Chapter Preview for Unit 3. This chapter focuses on plurals in the nominative case as well as forming adverbs in Russian. It's a pretty straightforward unit and it will take us to our final days for exam review. If you are on the culture and research plan, you should be sure that you have finished your research proposal this weekend on your quarterly project. If you've already finished, be sure that you are pulling together information to complete this work.
