Spring Break mode has come up quick so here's a quick recap of all the great work we did:Classes spent the majority of the week comparing and analyzing the Industrial Revolution as it occurred in different parts of the world. On Wednesday we took a quiz over this material and Thursday we practiced some essay skills. Friday we started a new unit on Imperialism with a gallery walk. Make sure you get some rest and enjoy your time off BUT here are a couple of reminders:AP EXAM Spring Break is a great opportunity for you to start studying for your AP Exam! This week allows for you to have a long period of “uninterrupted” time to plan out how you want to study and to start doing so! Half the battle with studying is PLANNING - so use your time wisely! Check out our page on the website here for how to buy one of my most recommended resources - study books - HERE. Spring Break Assignments And with that... a week to take advantage of getting ahead on some content. On Schoology there are TWO Crash Course videos and accompanying questions for you to complete. This is SOOOOO doable - and I know you guys like to be able to view our history concepts in a different way. These need to be completed and submitted to Schoology before we return. **IF you are going to be travelling and concerned about internet access, everything can be downloaded beforehand! Have a great break - stay safe and get some rest! |
