Today's class focused on the first pitch and poster. Remember that we will present our posters and our pitches on the 24th and this will be the last grade of Q1. All other works should be submitted by that point.
If you haven't yet completed and submitted your AB to Google Classroom, please do so as soon as possible. It is my goal to return feedback to you on Friday and conference with each of you on your AB work. Help me to facilitate that process by submitting your documents as quickly as you can.
Our next major step is the outline and draft of the introduction - to follow the posters - and then the research proposal. The proposal will go through two steps - a draft and formal review by the district. I'll share the forms with you once they are approved by Dr. Spencer.

Today in class we took a quiz on gender and vocabulary before finishing our film, Russia Revealed. I really like this film due to the fact that it shows that Russia is a very diverse land with not just a bunch of blue eyed, blond people.
Tonight for homework I want you to do a few things. First, complete the exercises to review gender and possession. This is good practice especially if you weren't too prepared for the quiz today. After that, you should work on the back. Look at the verbs. What can you tell about them? How do they work? What do they mean? These are examples of many of our verbs in this unit. So knowing these patterns will help a lot!
Advanced Russian
Today in class we spent time working with Russian texts so that we would be better prepared for the examination next class. Remember that the exam will be focused on verbs in their various forms. You should be able to work with verbs in all tenses (past, present, future) and be able to identify key information about them (tense, stem, form, infinitive, etc.). For the examination on Wednesday you will have a section that asks you to conjugate given some information about a verb. Then there will be a section much like today's in-class progress. Find and explain a variety of verbs.
Prepare by reviewing old quizzes, studying verb cards, and reviewing the appendix in your textbook starting at page A-25.

Homework for A-Day - 9 September 2019
AP Research
Today in class we had a great time getting started on our QUESTS and delving into the first major assignment of the course which is our SOURCE LIST. The slides in Google Classroom outline the requirements for the Source List assignment. Hopefully these classes have been helpful for you in setting your pathway forward.
Remember that the assignment is due by the 20th of September. Your sources should be categorized and in APA format. All that I need is a list of your categorized sources for this assignment. Remember to continue working on Reading and Task logs as you need to.

This week we will have our first quiz and it's on the alphabet. Today in class we practiced by writing and speaking a bit - this is a great way to prepare for what we have ahead. The quiz will cover just the letters, sounds, and some basic vocabulary.
I am also collecting handwriting packets through the week. They will be late if turned in after Friday.
For tonight, be sure that you have completed your handwriting, and that you are studying your cognate words [words that are the same in English and Russian]. Next class we'll start getting into some culture!
Advanced Russian
Today in class we reviewed how to form all three tenses in Russian - past, present, and future. And that's the main goal in tonight's homework. You should write a super short story -- three sentences, each sentence using a different tense. If you're in Russian III or IV then you should have at least six sentences. Additionally, you will need to complete your verb cards.
Wednesday's class is focused on review before the quiz on Friday. Be sure that it's productive by being prepared.

Homework for B-Day Students - 14 November
AP Seminar
Today was our last full day in the library for preliminary work and research related to our IWA. Next class you'll have half the period to finish your work. Then we'll come back to class to look at a sample IWA and discuss the writing goals that we will need to accomplish for this type of essay.
Tonight you should be working hard to complete your document. Remember that I am looking for your finalized research question, your argument on this question, and the sources that you are planning to use. With each source I should have a formal citation and a reflection as to how the source will be used - this could be like what you did for your annotated bibliography, or this could be more of an outline - be sure that there's a record.
Advanced Russian
Today in class we checked in on our exercises and we took some time to work on our aspectual situations tasks. Remember that these situations should be reflective of the work that you are following in your research reports. I want to make it that most everything we're doing in class is devoted to helping us on our essays and presentations.
For tonight, be sure that you have your argument and topic sentences in English for the essay. Next class we'll have a chance to start transforming these into Russian. From there, keep working on your comic - be writing, finding vocabulary, and developing your language related to your research topics.
Lastly, finish your exercises. I want us to have a final check of these exercises on Friday. Keep studying your vocabulary - there will be a reassessment on unit vocabulary soon!
Russian I
Over the last few classes we've been focusing on our verb conjugation patterns. Hopefully you've started to learn this process and the steps for how to do a proper conjugation. If you need more review, look over page 45 so that you can see the endings and a review of the process.
Tonight, you've got homework to review this process. It's all about conjugating verbs. Complete Exercise 3 - practice conjugating the verbs отвечать / спрашивать - remember these are first conjugation verbs. Then move on to Exercise 7 - practice conjugating a first and second conjugation verb.
Remember as I said today in class - this is information you have to memorize. Work hard to know your endings.

Homework for B-Day Classes: 22 October 2018
AP Seminar
This week we will be moving toward our TMPOD, so all work outside of class should be devoted toward that goal. Hopefully by this point your group knows your question or problem and the answer or solution that you are trying to sell. Now it's time to sell it.
Be sure that you are relating back to the research that you have already done. As I said today in class, many of you have looked at what's been done already - perhaps the best way to move forward is to discuss that as you begin to propose your own idea.
Next class and Friday we'll be working on these through class. Be sure that you've shared your Annotated Bibliography and highlighted where your teammates should focus on Wednesday and Friday. Also remember that you have all of your Oral Defense questions - it would be a good idea to begin to prepare those now.
Presentations will be done and scored on Tuesday. Then, Tuesday afternoon, I'll submit your final grades for this process. Remember that the TMPOD is the other half of the grade with the AB.
Advanced Russian
Today's class was a good one, though some of you should invest in more sleep or more coffee (or both) before coming to class. We are now working on a split unit - Russian II is focused on Unit 5 and Russian III is focused on Unit 8. Be aware of this as we move on.
Tonight, Russian II's are focused on showing they know the difference between perfective and imperfective aspect. Write about your day in English - use about 10 sentences. Then, go through and identify the verbs. Would the verb be done in perfective or imperfective if translating to Russian? Why? Consider the discussion today and the notes we took.
Russian III students are focused on learning declensions for new vocabulary. Your exercises are 8.6 and 8.19. Be sure to fill in the blank, check for agreement, and to translate what you have.
As well, you should all be developing your team outline - IN ENGLISH. We'll hopefully have some time devoted to this later in the week.

Today in class we went full force into Unit 1 by learning the different words to talk about ownership. There are two ways that we can do this in Russian that you know right now. One is through the preposition У and the other is by using a possessive pronoun. Remember that the possessive pronoun agrees with the item owned, and not the owner.
Use the slides in Google Classroom if your notes are lacking. Remember that you also have all week to resubmit your alphabet examination if you need to. Tonight, there are a few things for you to do. First, keep studying your vocabulary words for Unit 1 in advance of our spelling quiz next week. Second, complete the exercises on page 56 - number 11 and 12. Read the sentence and fill in the blank using the words that we have learned today.

At the end of class today we divided up Freakonomics in order to prepare for next class.

Today we reviewed the formation of the future tense as well as the declensions for accusative and prepositional case. Next class we'll apply many of these notes to our writing and speaking activity. Tonight, you should spend your time preparing for your assessment on Monday. Take a look at Exercise 8Г at the end of Chapter Four. This exercise identifies verbs and stems. Work with these - understand what the stem is telling you and the process of conjugation. That will be your major task on Monday. Make sure that you have your cards complete.

We finished learning the alphabet today! Hooray! Now you can complete your handwriting packet as we get ready for our first quiz on the alphabet. You need to be sure that you know all 33 letters and the sounds that they make. We'll continue to play and practice with words and sounds as we review and prepare for the quiz. I would like to collect your handwriting packets from you on Thursday, but if you need to finish over the weekend, that's fine too. If you're having trouble with the alphabet, I would suggest that you listen to the alphabet song several times or find another good video to review. So much of this is auditory, so just looking at the letters won't help too much.
As always, come and see me if you need any help or assistance! See you Thursday!

Homework for B-Day Students: 28 August
AP Seminar:
Tonight we have some important work to do in order to stretch you as you develop yourselves to be more creative and critical thinkers. Tonight you'll be watching the video below, analyzing your letter of the QUEST model and then completing your paperwork for class. So, here are your tasks.
Watch this TEDTalk and take notes on the following questions as you are watching:
1. Explain the story of Alfred Dreyfus?
2. What is motivated reasoning? What is problematic about this?
3. What is the scout mindset?
4. How are mind sets rooted in emotion? What are they and how are they different?
5. Seriously, what do you most yearn for?
6. How do you think this connects to our class?
Remember - answer these questions as bullet points, not necessarily as complete sentences or paragraphs. Be sure that you can show me your work on this if I were to ask for it.
Secondly, take a look at the Course and Exam Description booklet. Go to pages 11-24 and read carefully your assigned element of the QUEST framework. Read and annotate your section in order to better understand what that part of the Framework means. Be able to explain it to your classmates and to yourself!
Lastly, complete your paperwork - Honor Policy and Parent Contact Form - and turn those in to me next class.
Advanced Russian
Welcome back to all of you, дорогие мои! I am so happy to continue working with you in Russian class. Hopefully we had some fun today reviewing the basics and delving a bit further. Our first unit is focused on verbs, so for tonight I want you to make a list of ten verbs you use commonly to talk about your day. With each verb, be sure to write it down in Russian, in English, and make a list of the various cases that the verb will use to communicate meaning.
Russian III Students - You should attempt to transcribe the verb using structural transcription. That can be found at the beginning of your Russian language textbook if you still have that. This will help us to move forward into the One Stem Verb System.
Russian I
I hope that all of you enjoyed class today. Be sure that you access our Google Classroom page as well as our Duolingo page as well. You may find it more helpful to access these using the desktop site rather than the app or mobile site.
For homework tonight I want you to be practicing with your new letters A, K, M, O, T. Go through the handwriting packet and work with exercises that feature these letters. Practice your reading and writing. Remember that I'll collect the whole packet at the end of the unit.
Also, don't forget your Parent Contact Sheet too. I like to call parents and tell them how great you are.

Homework for the Weekend - 30 November - Russian Students
Advanced Russian:
Hopefully after spending time with your numbers and counting rules you are a bit more comfortable using and navigating time expressions. Russian II - If you did not finish your answering of the questions in Google Classroom as well as your recording of your questions and answers, make sure that you finish that work by Monday. There are also your time expression exercises at the end of Chapter Five.
Russian III - I hope that you are satisfied with the final draft of your paper. You should be actively preparing to answer questions and discuss this essay. Developing sample questions and preparing answers for those questions is one of the best ways to prepare. Also, don't forget to finish reviewing your time expressions as well. On Monday we will be working through some talking to solidify our knowledge around time. Prepare for a quiz on time expressions next week!
Russian I:
I will have your quizzes graded and posted soon. If you are not satisfied with your score, make sure that you fully learn this skill so that you can reassess on the skill next week. I also hope that you enjoyed your viewing of the second section of Doctor Zhivago today.
Over the weekend you should spend time with the readings at the beginning of Chapter One. Read over the dialogue and the reading. As you are reading these texts, look out for verbs. Can you identify where they are? Can you also identify where prepositional case is being used? On Monday we'll do some more work to pair verb conjugation with prepositional case.

Homework for Russian Students - 15 November
Good work today in class speaking and working with Russian. I like that I'm seeing a lot of engagement. Here are your reminders as you go into Friday.
Advanced Russian:
Since we didn't have a chance to do our workshop today, I want to make sure that all of you are continuing to work on your projects. Russian II - Since you got your rough drafts back today, focus on adding more complexity to your sentences. Add prepositional phrases, more verbs, and other vocabulary to help increase the complexity of the sentences. Russian III - Now we have a clear idea of our topic, the annexation of Crimea's effect on Russia's image in the world. Take this and move forward. Finish gathering your sources and start writing.
There are also exercises for you to consider. Russian III should look at exercise 21 on page 345. Russian II should look at exercise 9 in Chapter Five. Do what you can with these.
Russian I:
Tonight for homework you should complete your verb cards for your project. Remember that you want to have six verbs that you and your friends enjoy doing. Additionally, I would like for you to read the Chapter One dialogue, at the beginning of the chapter, and find all of the verbs. You can highlight them or mark them in another way as well.

Homework for Russian Students - 13 November 2017
You may reassesss on your quizzes all this week. You must schedule a time to do this outside of class. If you missed the quiz last week, then you must schedule a time to take it before the end of the day on Friday. Here are other reminders and announcements for today.
Russian I: This quarter you will be working on a long-term writing project in which you write about yourself and two friends (one male, one female) in Russian. For tonight, you should find six verbs that apply to you and your friends. Find the verbs in Russian and then conjugate them for all forms. You can do this on the back of the assignment sheet, or you can make vocabulary cards. These will be the verbs that you will continue to use through the majority of the project.
Russian II/III: Next class we will stay together and continue to work with the verbs that we have learned today. Focus on studying them thoroughly tonight. Use them. Focus on the strange conjugations. To help you do this, translate the sentences we were looking at during the end of class. You know which verb to use, now put it in the right form. We'll start by reviewing these translations next class.
Russian III: Take a look on Google Classroom - I have created templates for you to use in order to structure your writing assignment. By the end of this week you should complete the abstract and works cited page.

For tonight, you should find six verbs that apply to you and your friends. Find the verbs in Russian and then conjugate them for all forms. You can do this on the back of the assignment sheet, or you can make vocabulary cards. These will be the verbs that you will continue to use through the majority of the project.
Russian II/III: Next class we will stay together and continue to work with the verbs that we have learned today. Focus on studying them thoroughly tonight. Use them. Focus on the strange conjugations. To help you do this, translate the sentences we were looking at during the end of class. You know which verb to use, now put it in the right form. We'll start by reviewing these translations next class.

Homework for the Weekend - A Day - 2 November
Russian I
Over the weekend you should focus on studying your verb conjugations that we did in class today. On Monday we'll have more time to practice with those. The goal of studying this weekend would be for the verbs and nouns in Chapter One as well as the cognates from earlier. Your quiz on Wednesday will focus on vocabulary. Make sure you know words, their meaning, and how to work with those.
Advanced Russian
II - Over this weekend you should revise your sentences about aspect to include more complexity as well as some of the triggers for aspect (aka the adverbs). By using more of the vocabulary you'll be learning more of the vocabulary, and that is always a plus. You may also want to start creating your comics to go along with your work. You can draw them by hand, or you can use an online program (Bitstrips) to make your comics. Make sure that the language and the comic clearly connect.
III - Over the weekend continue to review and practice with your language related to time. To help you do this you will need to complete exercises 8.7 and 8.8 which review prepositions and other expressions related to time. As always, this gets complicated. One of the only ways to really understand it is to use it.
II/III - Don't forget that next week you'll have one of our new, regular vocabulary quizzes. Russian II should focus on pairs for commonly known verbs as well as adverbs related to aspect. Russian III should focus on language related to talking about time (numbers, questions, expressions).

Be sure to consider the aspect of the verb in your answer - will it be the same or different? Why?
III - You must complete your research topic so that we can review it on Friday. Additionally, look over the rest of Chapter Eight, especially related to time expressions, and find places where ordinal numbers are used. Think of other areas of language where we would use an ordinal number instead of a plain or cardinal number.

That was a very productive class! I think that we did a great job reviewing on our rules around masculine, feminine, and neuter gender and then seeing how these ideas connect to the idea of possession and possessive words like my, your, and our. Tonight, practice with these concepts to reinforce the learning in class.
Complete exercise 11 and 12 at the end of Chapter One. For exercise 11, use your notes or the information in your textbook - you can find the chart we made in there too - and fill in the blanks. Make sure to look for and consider gender. In exercise 12 you'll be doing the same thing, but adding in a translating and writing step. If the words are in English, translate to Russian and then write a question and answer like the example. If it's already in Russian, just write a question and answer.
This will help you to do the other thing which is study your vocabulary! Remember our reflection today in class about applying better study habits outside of class. Spend time with this idea and practice. There's also a video you can check out here:

Today we started moving into our new units! Yay! Russian II has a very interesting journey ahead as you start to move into aspect. You all should be focused on the new vocabulary that we used at the end of class today. Look at your verbs in the beginning of the chapter. Use them and learn them. Apply what you have learned about stems to the work you are now doing!
Russian II - You will find it helpful to locate the list of all aspectual verb pairs in Chapter Five. This is within the chapter. With it, you should analyze the poem in exercise one. Do you see an imperfective (one you already know) or perfective (new information) verb? What's the tense? What do you understand about the poem. This is exercise one at the end of Chapter 5.
Russian III - You will begin by looking at the first exercise too. This is a list of questions. Using your vocabulary list answer ten of these questions about yourself. Activate what you know. Analyze the question to think about the case you'll need in your answer.
Both groups should also review the reading at the beginning of the chapter. Mark unknown words and grammar structures. Try to summarize each paragraph, in English.
English IV
Next week is going to be a heavy week in terms of finishing our unit on The Canterbury Tales and personal writing. Make sure that if you want to revise your essay that you have done that. Way to go to those of you who already have. If you've made changes in Google Docs, please let us know via email. Also, we'll have the resume and the personal character project to finish.

Homework for the Weekend - A Day - 1 September
Happy Day of Knowledge! Happy First of September!
Russian I:
Homework for the weekend is to continue to focus on learning your letters in Russian. Remember that you should be learning the sounds and the shapes of the letters in Russian. Know the print version of the letter as well as the handwriting and start to get comfortable with reading and writing these sounds.
Also - we have some extra credit for this weekend! Do some research on Russian music and bring me a Russian musical artist that you would like to add to our class playlist. Bringing me a artist's name will earn you a bit of extra credit.
Advanced Russian:
This weekend I want you to focus on your use of verbs as you write a few sentences about your weekend. Use mostly past tense as you write and the verbs from Chapters One through Four. As you write, look at your vocabulary to remind you which cases are paired with which verbs. Use any charts or notes to help you with case declensions. Use language that you have ownership of - don't run to Yandex for all of your words.
Write 3-5 sentences (Russian II) / 5-7 sentences (Russian III). Next class I'll collect this as a bit of a diagnostic to see how our writing is going.
English IV:
There's no real homework for you all to complete this weekend. If you have missed a few classes because you've been added or had schedule issues, be sure to think about parts of yourself that are important to you, but kept hidden. Next class we'll be spending a lot of time toward writing our personal essays.
