This week in AP Human Geography students will be reviewing for then taking their 1st semester final/midterm. Each class will take their final on a different day and time. 4th Period will take the exam on Thursday from 8:20-10:10, 6th Period will take their exam Wednesday from 10:25-12:15, and 7th Period will take their exam on Friday from 10:25 to 12:15. On my website students have access to a study guide for the midterm, multiple quizlets covering each of the topics on the midterm, and several review videos to help students review information. I have also posted on the MYAP website 3 sample multiple choice question sets to help students prepare for the types of questions they will see on the Midterm. Finally I would recommend students use the iScore5 app (there is a link on my website or find it in the app store) this app provides students with sample multiple choice questions and immediate feedback if they happen to miss a question. I will also be available every morning this week if any student needs any extra review. If anyone has any questions, comments, or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks and I hope everyone has a wonderful week and a wonderful holiday break.

This week in Economics students will be finishing up our film studies over Catch Me if you Can and The Founder. We will be discussing the Economic topics covered in each of these films, and how it related to our studies this year. Students will also be updating their stocks for the final time to simulate the selling of their shares to see if they made or lost money for the semester. Finally during our final exam window students will be completing an evaluation on myself to help me determine what i need to improve on for the next class. I just want to take a second to thank all off you for all your help this year, I could not be happier with all of our results from this year. Thank you all again so much, and I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday break.
This week in AP Human Geography students will be learning about the concepts of Race, Ethnicity, and Gender. We will also be reviewing for the Midterm which will be next week. On my website I have provided students with multiple quizlets, and review videos to help them review for their Midterm. If any student wants to come see me for any additional review I will be available every morning this week except tomorrow which is due to EOC testing. 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 taking the EOC on Tuesday. 1st Period will take it in my room during 1st through 3rd Periods, and 2nd Period will take it in the Media Center 1st through 3rd Periods. We have been reviewing for over a week and I feel the students are very prepared for the test. I would have them look over their projects tonight, their flash cards, and also my website has lots of review games and videos that they can review. Following the EOC students will be participating in a film study over the films "Catch me if you Can" and "The Founder" I have sent home a permission slip for these films with the students today, please sign it and have your student return it so that they may participate. If you do not want your student to watch these films an alternative assignment will be provided. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks and I hope everyone has a wonderful week
This week in AP Human Geography students will be finishing up our discussion of religion. We will be studying Judaism, Sikhism, Shintoism, and Taoism. We will also be looking at how religion can impact the roles of government, and instances where religious leaders are the government. I am hoping to test by the end of this week but I also do not want to rush this content. If students need more time for this material I will push the test to next week, I will send out another email on Wednesday letting everyone know when the test will be. This week the online practice questions will become available for students to work on to see how prepared they are for the exam. If any student needs to come in for recovery or help reviewing for this upcoming test i will be available in the morning and during Chatt time all week. 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 we will be spending the entire week reviewing for the EOC, which will be given next Tuesday December 10th. Students will be using a variety of study tools to help them prepare for this test such as; online practice questions, review games, review videos, flash cards, a written practice exam, and I will be preparing study guides for each of the major units of study. This week students will also be turning in their term projects this Thursday December 5th, this project counts as a major grade and will also be useful in helping students study for the EOC. I will be available in the mornings and during Chatt time this week if any student wants to come in and get some extra help reviewing for this exam. If anyone has any questions, comments, or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks and I hope everyone has a wonderful week.
