Homework for B-Day Students: 13 May 2019

AP Seminar

Thank you all today for your feedback related to our Performance Task 1 units and preparation. I really do thank you all for your feedback and thoughtful ideas related to our class. Please complete the final questions related to this conversation on Google Classroom. Also ensure that you have completed your formal letter reflection before Wednesday's class.

Advanced Russian

Today in class we really reviewed the different endings for participles, the ways that we form them, and the tricky faces that they can wear for us. Hopefully you all are finding ways to apply this work as you are working through your songs. Remember that the song project is our main means of preparing for the final examination. The 28th is our last day of class and this is the day for our presentations. You'll be expected to review the five interesting elements of your song's grammar, the cultural information related to the singer/group, and your memorization, The memorization can be done privately. This is a big final project which can have some major effect on your grade - be sure that it is positive.

For tonight's homework, be aware of your reading and participle hunting. Next class is really our last day of instruction. Hopefully you'll be prepared to wrap up our work with participles.

Russian I

Today in class we spent most if not all of our time reviewing the process by which we create plurals from singulars for all of our parts of speech. We ended our day with our word cards. Like I said, writing out the changes for the words and understanding why the changes are made is key to understanding Russian. Be sure that you are building in time this summer to do this work so that you don't forget all of your Russian this summer.

Next class we will have a quiz on plurals in Russian. The quiz will focus on regular and irregular plurals. This is the final quiz of the year! Outside of this there will be few assignments left in the year. Be sure that you're finishing strong!
