A Little Advice

Seniors, you have an exemption! Happy class trip weekend!

So, you are just finishing up a year of AP Language and Composition. If you think back to the beginning of the year, you might recall memorization exercises, rhetoric, Aristotle, logos, pathos and ethos, Frankenstein trial, Gatsby and so much more! On this blog, you will do two things:

1. Tell me one thing you wish we had studied. That can range from a specific piece of writing you would have liked to analyze, a topic you wish we had debated, a novel that you think would have been interesting, or a unit that you would have liked to explore.  I change my curriculum every year based on what went well and what was missing. Assessing that myself is very difficult because I didn't take the class, you did. So constructive advice is appreciated! Give me a good solid idea for next year's class.  s

2. Give the incoming AP Language and Composition class some friendly advice about how to get the most out of the class. You can discuss study strategies, work habits you think might be helpful, advice on how to tackle the work load or just some tips about how to enjoy the year.

PS. Barbaro winners, you are exempt since I forgot to post the blog last weekend! Be sure you post WINNER! so I know you are to receive credit!
