This week in AP Human Geography students will be presenting their cooking show assignments, continuing their work on development, and preparing to form their teams for a development game I have planned for next week. Students will be turning in their cooking show assignments today, and we will be viewing them in class. This week students should be focused on reading in their textbook and reading in their AMSCO review books. Please ask your student if they are keeping up with their reading, it goes a long way to improving their test scores. If any student needs any help I will be available every morning this week except Wednesday and also during Chatt time. If anyone has any questions, comments, or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks and I hope everyone has a wonderful week.
