Epic Rap Battles Assignment Information

One of the two options for your final project is our own APUSH version of Epic Rap Battles of History.  If you are choosing this assignment, please note the following - 

1. Read the entire assignment sheet before you pick group members or subjects for your rap.

2. You must form a group of three to five people, all of whom MUST be in your class period of APUSH.  No two-person groups OR groups of more than five people will be allowed.

3. As soon as you have determined your group members AND the two subjects who will appear in your ERB, please fill out the Google form linked below.  All groups and subjects must be selected by Monday, May 11 at 4pm.  If you are not part of a group by Monday afternoon, you will be required to complete the paper assignment.

Please email Mr. Flowers if you have any questions about the project, and remember to fill out the form once you've settled on your group and subjects.

Lecture 11!

After myriad technical problems, I present you the last lecture of the year -

Lecture 11!

Less than 36 hours to the exam.  Are you prepared?  I hope so!

AP Breakfast - more food needed!

Students - 

As I'm sure you know by now, it is our tradition at LASA that we provide breakfast for those taking the APUSH examination on the day of the exam.  Back in the days when we had 60 or 70 test-takers, this was a little easier to manage.  Now, with nearly 200 of you sitting the exam on Friday, we need parent (and even student) volunteers to make this happen.

If your parents would like to volunteer to provide food or drinks for our APUSH breakfast, please have them sign up using the link below.  If you would like to provide something (and it won't stress you out on the day before or morning of the exam), please also feel free to sign up. 

Thanks!

Lecture 10a

For those of you who didn't get this in class (mostly first and second period on A days), here is lecture 10a.  I will be recording 10b in the next hour or so, and I hope to have it posted tonight.  I'll do the first part of 11 tomorrow.

Lecture 9c is also posted

Here is the link to 9c (slavery) -

Lecture 9c - Slavery

Lecture 9b is up!

After several failed attempts at compressing and uploading, Lecture 9b (the economy and transportation) is now live on Vimeo.  Password remains the same.

Lecture 9b - The National Economy

Lecture 9c (slavery) is already recorded, and I'm waiting on the file to compress and upload to Google Drive so I can get it over to Vimeo.  Hopefully it will be up and running in the next hour or so.  I'll post the link as soon as it's ready.

I will be recording ALL of Lecture 10 (broken into 2 or 3 abbreviated sections) for the A-day students, and for any B-day class that didn't make it to the end.  I will also have a brief bit of Lecture 11 (Reconstruction) that we didn't get at the beginning of the year - mostly on presidential Reconstruction and the Grant administration - recorded at some point this weekend or early next week.
