Homework for A Day Students - Weekend - Valentine's Day - 2/14/2020

AP Research

We're just working, working, working as we keep building our task. Remember that you should complete your BOK Analysis and then the two reflections left for you on Google Classroom. Remember that one will focus on presentation, and one will focus on alignment in the paper. Take a look at your findings and takeaways on this assignment. Be sure to use this as you're building your Lit Review. (We'll focus on this next week).


We'll be peer editing our papers on the 24th. Be sure that you have a complete introduction, lit review, and method (as much as possible). Remember that you can write based on projections and then make edits later.

Russian I

Today in class was a day to review the way in which we build complete sentences and agreement between adjectives and nouns. Remember that we're using our Chapter 1 knowledge to know what to do with nouns and our Chapter 2 knowledge to know what to do with adjectives. Keep studying and reviewing how to make these changes.


I was happy to see your improvement on the Backpack assignment. I'll have these back to you soon. Please complete your exercises this weekend - Chapter 2, Exercise 2 and 4 - Use your cases and notes to do this work. Remember to focus on learning your colors - we'll have a quiz on vocabulary next week!

Advanced Russian

Class today was a day for playing with verbs of motion to talk about traveling around Moscow. As we worked with this activitiy we were using actual Russian texts (maps) to talk about our travels. Remember our process - We use A sentences to talk about plans (What we will do.) We use B sentences to talk about going (travel to a destination in the moment). We use C sentences to talk about round trips (Today I went to the Kremlin).

Remember Russian III and IV, it's not enough to use the prefix - you need a preposition too!


Over the weekend, continue to study your cards and complete the remaining exercises. We'll have more time to work with our verbs next week. Don't forget to make corrections to your quizzes for a reassessment.

Homework for A Day Students - 11 September

AP Research

Today in class we reviewed our test for sources - the CRAAP method. On Google Classroom I've posted the worksheet, slides, and video from our work today in class. Remember that as you are finding a variety of sources and perspectives, to use your topic/question in order to evaluate them. Remember Jenny McCarthy. The work may be good for another topic, just not yours.

Don't forget to answer your second reflection question by the end of the weekend. I'll look for them soon. You should be building your source list and developing your question at this point!

Russian I

We did so much today in class. We sang! We said funny things! We even read a map in Russian! All of this goes to show that language is one of those natural things - it's easy to pick up. Next class you will have your quiz on the alphabet. The quiz will ask you to identify letters, write in Russian, and identify basic words in Russian. After the quiz we will work on our first culture project - the regions of Moscow.

Remember that your handwriting packet is due next class. You only have to complete the exercises where you are asked to write what is given for you. Nothing else.

Advanced Russian

I think that today's independent/group studying was very effective because I saw many of you working very diligently on your verb work. This is great preparation for our quiz next class. On the quiz you'll have several verbs to work with - I'll ask that you identify the verb and work with several verbs in all tenses in Russian. After our quiz there will be time to begin on the culture projects related to Stalin's Skyscrapers.

If you're at all confused related to the one stem verb system, please see me outside of class for assistance. I've posted our study guide and slides on Google Classroom.
