Homework for A Day Students - 12 February 2020

AP Research

Thank you for working with the substitute teacher and with Mr. Ellison today. A few reminders to guide you as you continue to work at home on your studies:

1. Be sure that you document all of your work in your PREP Folder. Especially important right now are Research Records, Records of Communication (participants/expert advisors), Task Log.

2. Complete your BOK Analysis and Reflection 17.

3. Our next major assignment will be a peer editing/revising day focused on Introduction, Lit Review, and Method. Hopefully, as you are moving through this unit, you are making decisions and finalizing these elements of your paper. I hope that you all see how the analysis assignment helps with the drafting elements.

4. We will have a round of conferences in the coming classes to check in on things.

Russian I

Today in class we focused our work on our case learning with adjectives. We were using genitive case and nominative case to talk about identifying animals and to discuss either having or not having something. Remember that as we do this work it's all about agreement with the noun. Whatever gender and case the noun is in, the adjective has to match. As I said in class, we can sort of change the shape of words to fit them where they need to fit.


Continue to study and review your declension charts - both nouns and adjectives - to learn these partnerships. Tonight, you should finish the Chapter 2 exercises which were assigned last class. We'll go over those before getting back to our film on Friday!

Advanced Russian

Today in class we had a writing workshop about verbs of motion followed by a new verb (to swim). We ended our day reviewing our exercises for homework tonight as well as reviewing some of the key cases and prepositions we use in Russian to complete full ideas with travels.


For tonight, complete your exercises - follow the instructions and use the model exercise we completed today at the end of class. Continue to study your verb cards. You should know most of your conjugations by this point. I think that a lot of you should also focus on your noun case endings - they work together with the work we're doing now.
