Homework for the Weekend - A Day - 2 May

AP English III

Next week we will begin AP Examinations. Be aware of the policies related to attendance and absences when you are testing. If you are not in class you will be marked absent; if you are testing, this will be corrected. I would highly suggest coming to class the day of your AP Examination if class doesn't conflict. Don't mess up your exam exemption because you're sleeping for APES.

Today in class we finished our reading of The Grapes of Wrath before having a bit of time to talk about the motif projects. By Monday, everyone should turn in their litcrit reading guides. Remember that these are meant to help inform your 1Q1P and analysis of the quote/motif in the context of the whole novel. Additionally, Monday will be our last day for chapter presentations. If you haven't presented, Monday is your day!

This weekend gives you a great chance to work on your motif projects. Remember that your charts, illustrations, and writing are due on Friday. If you are taking the AP US History Exam on Friday then your projects will be collected on Monday.

We'll be doing a lot of exam review and AP test prep for the next few classes. Our exam is on Wednesday the 15th! Let's get ready for the end!

English IV

We were having such a good time that I forgot about the end of class! Next week we'll be finishing our books and our first projects - the pamphlets. After those are done we'll be constructing our essays and continuing to practice with NCFE test taking strategies and skills. Only 8 more classes until we start our final examinations!
