Homework for A-Day - 28 January 2020

AP Research

Today was our working day in preparation for Elevator Pitch 2.0 on Thursday. Be ready to present to your peers on Thursday. You should have slides in Assessment Task Drafts and you should have cards/a script if needed. Remember that we are building the final deal - try to make sure that things are in alignment with our rubrics, and that the paper matches the presentation.

I look forward to dropping in to some of your presentations on Thursday. We'll also have our reflection for the week on Thursday before we go on to Unit 4 next week!

I've also included a really helpful resource on Google Classroom on statistical tests from Ms. Saveliff. Please direct any questions to her!

Russian I

Today in class we finished our crazy cartoon and really focused on being able to analyze our cases as they are used in questions, answers, and various constructions. Our other key focus was on the different triggers for cases that we see in Russian. Remember that knowing the triggers, the jobs, and the endings is one of your major learning goals for this unit. Hopefully the repetition has helped.


Your projects are due at the end of the week. You should have a slide for each question and then a photo that goes along with it. Don't forget to finish the rest of your sentences on the homework. Put the words in order and make the changes that you need to make to them.

Advanced Russian

Today in class we spent a lot of time with exercises and with translations. As we do this work we are really trying to learn the way to think through these situations. Is it an A, B, or C situation? What's the tense? Is the effect of the action still there? These questions will help us to get to the proper verb.

Tonight you should complete the exercises we did not get to today - the odds. Add your notes. Determine if it's an A, B, or C. Find key words. Use your cards. Hopefully you are studying the cards regularly to learn this vocabulary.


You'll have a quiz next week on our first four verbs of motion. It'll focus on vocabulary mostly and some grammar. If you're studying the cards daily then you'll be set for the assessment. If you were absent, be sure to check the slides.
