Homework for A Day Students - 11 September

AP Research

Today in class we reviewed our test for sources - the CRAAP method. On Google Classroom I've posted the worksheet, slides, and video from our work today in class. Remember that as you are finding a variety of sources and perspectives, to use your topic/question in order to evaluate them. Remember Jenny McCarthy. The work may be good for another topic, just not yours.

Don't forget to answer your second reflection question by the end of the weekend. I'll look for them soon. You should be building your source list and developing your question at this point!

Russian I

We did so much today in class. We sang! We said funny things! We even read a map in Russian! All of this goes to show that language is one of those natural things - it's easy to pick up. Next class you will have your quiz on the alphabet. The quiz will ask you to identify letters, write in Russian, and identify basic words in Russian. After the quiz we will work on our first culture project - the regions of Moscow.

Remember that your handwriting packet is due next class. You only have to complete the exercises where you are asked to write what is given for you. Nothing else.

Advanced Russian

I think that today's independent/group studying was very effective because I saw many of you working very diligently on your verb work. This is great preparation for our quiz next class. On the quiz you'll have several verbs to work with - I'll ask that you identify the verb and work with several verbs in all tenses in Russian. After our quiz there will be time to begin on the culture projects related to Stalin's Skyscrapers.

If you're at all confused related to the one stem verb system, please see me outside of class for assistance. I've posted our study guide and slides on Google Classroom.
