6 January 2023 - Closing out Quarter 2

AP Language

Ugh! The bane of our existence! AP Classroom. The program was super glitchy, so some of you may need to get in your extended time in Lion Time on Monday. Next class we'll complete the FRQ - Rhetorical Analysis and Argument; hopefully we won't have the same problems as we had today. 

If you have something to complete, please do so. A few of you need to submit your final five vocabulary cards and very few of you need to complete the discussion on your choice of book for Unit 5. We'll begin in earnest on that unit next week after we finish our exam. The next AP Exam will be after Spring Break, at the beginning of Quarter 4.

As always, please let me know what I can do to support you

AP Research

Fun times in AP Research today. Interesting work and interesting conversations related to data, data collection, and the way that we weave our limitations into our discussions and analysis. I like the way that we're getting super aware of what we're doing and why we're doing it. Keep in mind the importance of Peer Review during this process. Having a friend to check behind you for limitations and gaps is important. It's easy to develop blind spots in this work, a friend can help us stay clear on the path.

Over the weekend, be sure to complete your newest PREP Reflection Question. I've updated the document in Course Resources. You'll have two more of these questions before the end of the quarter. You should also be actively writing and creating content. Draft! 

Next week we'll have a lot of working time. Be sure to get your permission slips signed and completed. Also, clear your revisions if you haven't yet. See you next week!
