Monday, April 15 Week of April 8-12 * I apologize for not keeping up with the posting this week. I have been struggling with a cold and am also a single parent while my husband is out of town for work. As a result, I have not been keeping up with grading or my website as much as I would like. I should be able to get everything caught up over the weekend so we'll be back on track. * This week students have been working through a PowerPoint and video notes on the Age of Revolutions. The notes pages as well as the PPT and video links (28, 29, 30, 31) are listed below. Anything we don't finish in class on Friday will be concluded on Monday. * The first AP Review session was Thursday and it covered some overall concepts related to the test. We will start formal reviews of each time period on Monday at lunch. Students are strongly encouraged to attend in order to maximize their study time for the AP Exam. HOMEWORK I have not been giving any homework beyond their work on the CST Review Packets. With the STAR testing looming next week, students have received reviews of the CA Standards so they can prepare for the STAR test. Although it does not coincide directly with where we are studying in AP World, anything that is on the STAR test will also show up on the AP test so it is not hurting the students to take the time to complete the reviews. As of Friday afternoon, they should have turned in Clusters 1 & 2 which I will grade over the weekend. They have also received Clusters 3 & 5 which are due next Wednesday (for period 7) and Thursday (for periods 4 and 6). Cluster 4 covers World War II which I will talk about during class on Monday and Tuesday.

Wednesday, February 20 Tuesday 2/19 Agenda and Homework I apologize for the delay in posting homework. I was gone for two days last week and therefore got behind in my updates. I will try to get back on track from this point forward. Today students had one more day to complete the activity they had started with my sub last week. They have been researching key events from the time of the Renaissance. They were given one last class period to get it done before it is collected at the start of class tomorrow. Any work they didn't complete in class was homework. The pages needed for this assignment are attached. 2_19 - Renaissance Events Organizers.pdf
Tuesday, February 12 Thursday 2/7 - Tuesday 2/12 For the past four days, students have been working on their Unit 3 Online Test.

In addition, they were available for students to access them online from home starting Monday 2/11 at 6:00 PM and ending Thursday 2/14 at 8:00 AM. This has given students the maximum opportunity to be successful on this part of their grade. As students have been testing, I have been grading notebooks. Scores will be added to their grades once they are calculated. Homework During the course of this testing, there has not been any additional homework given.
