Homework for A-Day: Wednesday the 18th

AP Research

Today was a workday and it looks like we're being pretty productive in the room. Remember that I'll be checking your PREP folders over break for eight folders. You're getting eighty points on this assignment, ten points for each folder. I'm looking for completion in this assignment, and I'll be reading some elements (like your reflections).


Next class is another POD and then our final workshop of the year! Make it a great last day!

Russian I

Today in class we learned how to make sentences talking about what we have and what we don't have - all focused on using Genitive Case. I was happy to see that so many of you were engaged in working and writing today during our workshop.


Next class we have a quick quiz on vocabulary and cases. Be sure that you've studied your four cases (nominative, accusative, genitive, and prepositional). Know their jobs. Know what they do to words. Also know your Chapter 1 Verbs - There's a vocabulary section too! After our quiz it's going to be movie time; bring snacks for the group if you'd like.

Advanced Russian

Today we went over the skills that you'll find on your unit exams, which you can consider your New Year's gift from me. Remember Russian III and IV, you'll see some of the preliminary skills from Russian II since we're all in this together. After that we split off into groups to review through our exercises, study vocabulary, and Russian IV learned how to form verbal adverbs (what fun!).

Friday is for celebrating the New Year! We'll sing, cook, and finish our presentations. Remember that you can bring extra food or snacks, but I'll be teaching some Russian recipes for you too.


There are plenty of exercises in the textbook to help you review your skills. We'll take a look at them after break to spot check and help each other out.
