Grading update - Flowers

So, I'm grading things now.  I'm going to try and get everyone all their essays and short answers back by Tuesday, and I'm going to have terms lists back before the exam as well.  You may see some essay and short answer grades pop up in TEAMS by later tonight, but if not, certainly by tomorrow.  Please look in the 'graded work' slot for your class tomorrow and Tuesday and collect anything of yours that's there.

Exam week!

It's exam week in APUSH, and I know everyone is excited!  The test is written and all the versions are formatted and ready to copy.  I'll be putting the essays together later tonight.  Remember, you'll be taking both a multiple choice section and writing one long essay on exam day, so make sure you're preparing for both.

Also, remember that we'll be doing an exam review Monday afternoon as soon as last period ends.  We'll start in my room, but if we have enough people show up we'll switch over to the library.  Feel free to show up if you think it would be useful.  We'll do a general overview and then take questions.  We'll probably go until 4.15 or 4.30, depending on how many people show up and how long they want to stay.

Hope your studies are going well, and please feel free to email me (or Ms. Pettigrew) if you have any questions.

Mini-lecture 1

The first in our ongoing series of mini-lectures has been posted!  We've decided to call the series 'So, that's a thing...', and the first topic is taxation in America.  All these lectures will be posted on Vimeo, and the password for each will be the same - apushlasa.

These lectures are designed to be a very brief overview of certain topics in the course that we would like you to have some command of as we move forward.  Also, at some point, groups of terms from the 'So that's a thing...' series will pop up on terms lists.

We hope you find these useful, and we will continue to post them over the course of the year.

So, that's a thing... Taxes!
