Homework for B-Day - Starting Q2 - 29 October

AP Literature

Next class we will have our The Stranger, Part One, Unit Assessment. The sample exam tasks that you had today are very indicative of the work you will do on Thursday. A few important reminders:

1. Review all of the slides and notes on Google Classroom that have been made available.

2. Annotate your books as you study and review. We've highlighted a lot of important passages. Do you have annotations which align with those passages? Do your covers reflect the work that we've been doing in class?

3. Be ready for the exam by using the review pack. Be able to answer all of the questions. Know what's expected of you!

Please remember to bring your novels/annotations for Part One. If they are on paper, bring those. Remember that these need to be reading notes, and not just your notes from class.  If you have questions related to the assessment, see us before the fact.

AP Research

Today we worked to understand the main parts of Q2 and then to break the major steps into smaller and achievable goals. Set a timeline for yourself. Hold yourself accountable. Be sure that you are able to explain and justify the choice that you have made. This is an important element of being productive. Remember that 15 November is a line in concrete. We must have the proposal complete in its DRAFT form by that day.
