This week in AP Human Geography students will be finishing Chapter 4 Culture. We will be testing over Chapter 4 this Tuesday and Wednesday. This means that all major assignments for Chapter 4 are due this Tuesday. I would also recommend students attempt the online practice questions covering culture on the MY AP website. I think these are great questions to prepare students for my test, the midterm, and the AP test in May. If any student wants to come in to review for the test this week I am available every morning starting at 7:30. I am also available during Chatt time if any student wants to come in then. If anyone has any questions, comments, or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks and I hope everyone has a wonderful week.

This week in Economics students will be finishing up Unit 6 which covered Monetary and Fiscal Policy. This week students will have several graded activities. On Tuesday students will have an assignment over labeling the business cycle. On Wednesday of this week students will take their Review Quiz over Demand. On Thursday students will begin their test over Unit 6. The multiple choice will be on Thursday and free response will be on Friday. Students will turn in their vocabulary over Unit 6 this Thursday. If anyone needs any help reviewing for the test I will be available every morning this week in my room starting at 7:30. I will also be available during Chatt time if anyone wants to come in then. Last week students also received their rubric for their Economics term project. This project is about creating a study guide for the EOC, it is a great way to both boost their averages an prepare for that test. If anyone has any other questions, comments, or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks and have a wonderful week.
This week in AP Human Geography we will be continuing to look at the different aspect of culture. We will specifically be looking at the differences between folk culture and pop culture. This week we will be outside on either Thursday or Friday (weather permitting) to play a game of cricket, to illustrate how folk culture and pop culture can change over time. Also this week students will be taking another FRQ to continue to practice on our writing skills. Our test over culture will be next week, so students should be finishing up on their major assignments for this chapter this week. I will be available for extra help every morning this week but Thursday morning if any student wants to come in. I will also be available during chatt time, if a student wants to come in then. If anyone has any questions, comments, or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks and I hope everyone has a wonderful week.

Students should also be working on defining their vocabulary words from chapters 14, 15, and 16. We will be testing over Unit 6 next Thursday and Friday. I will be available for extra help every morning this week but Thursday morning if any student wants to come in. I will also be available during chatt time, if a student wants to come in then. If anyone has any questions, comments, or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks and I hope everyone has a wonderful week.

This week in Economics students will be reviewing for their Unit 5 test which will be this Thursday. Today we will be reviewing all the major concepts, doing a couple of practice problems, and playing some review games in order to prepare for the test. Due to the PSAT being tomorrow please encourage your student to study at home a little bit on Wednesday. They can go to my website and find a quizlet, review videos and all the notes for the Unit if they need to review. If anyone has any questions, comments, or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks and have a wonderful week.
