Homework for the Weekend - A Day - 15 November

AP Research

Today was a workday for all of us. I was reviewing your proposals and you were working with each other or on your own. I'm planning to sit with you at the beginning of next week to go through your proposals and address feedback. As you are working this weekend, don't forget that we have a new reflection posted for this week.

I would highly suggest that you all spend the time that you need this weekend working through your method. Do you have a firm understanding of what data you need to collect and how you are going to get it? How are you taking these generalized methods and making them specific to your question and study?


You'll have the chance to recoup your points next week if you missed any. Please review your work as it is returned to you. I'll hopefully have them all returned to you on Google Classroom by the end of today.

Russian I

Today in class we finished the first part of Doctor Zhivago and did a bit of review on prepositional case. Next class we'll review prepositional case even more. Be sure that you've finished the exercise where you use the verb "to live" and change the location into prepositional case. Take this time to learn this pattern so that you know it for the rest of this class.

Advanced Russian

We went to the grocery store today to learn about Russian habits related to food. We also spent our time using numbers in a variety of ways to talk about quantities and the cost of things. Fun times! Over the weekend you should all be focused on learning your numbers both in terms of how to spell them and how to use them. I hope that our work together today was helpful in reminding you of the key patterns when using numbers.


Focus as well on genitive case - we use it a lot when working with numbers. Next week we'll keep working with numbers as we learn more about telling time and dates next week.
