C Day and Final Changes

Due to the snow day on Friday LASA will be having a C day on Wednesday December 13th this will impact all APUSH students in the following ways.

B day students your multiple choice portion of the test is now pushed to Wednesday December 13th but you will still write your LEQ on Tuesday December 12th.

A day students your multiple choice portion will still be on Wednesday December 13th and your LEQ will be on your final period (1st period 12/15, 2nd period 12/15, and 3rd 12/18).

The class periods on Wednesday will be 45 minutes so you will need to make sure you get to class promptly.

Snowpocalypse 2017!!

Hi everyone.  Hope you're staying safe and warm in this massive Austin winter storm. 

A quick update for my B-day students.  I'm going to record the end of the lecture and put it on Blend or Vimeo, so you'll be able to access that at some point tomorrow.  You are still responsible for all of the content in lecture 5 for the semester exam, so you should probably watch this before Tuesday.  We're also going to put the Mystery Document on Blend at some point this weekend, and you'll be responsible for taking that by Wednesday of next week.  You're also still responsible for taking the Blend quiz by Sunday. 

We're also going to post a copy of Terms List 4.2 on the web site at some point tomorrow in case you need to print it.  I'll accept Terms 4.2 for credit until Monday afternoon.

Please email if you have any questions, and enjoy your well-deserved time off.

DBQ & SAQ Makeups

For those who missed the DBQ and/or SAQs yesterday we will be having four make up times between now and Wednesday after break. Remember you need 55 minutes for the DBQ and 30 for the SAQs so if you missed both it will require two lunch make up times. If we need to open more rooms Monday - Wednesday we will.

Friday 11/17 at lunch in 272 (Pettigrew's room)
Monday 11/27 at lunch in 276 (Aguayo's room)
