Essay information for Friday

OK, the first test is now history! Tomorrow you will have an assembly that will take most of the period. When you make it to class, I will introduce the first project to you, which will be due on Monday. The description of the project will be posted in tomorrow's blog post, and documents will be shared with you via your school email.

On Friday you will write an essay during class.  The style will be Compare and Contrast and the topic will be drawn from Chapters 1-6.

You should look over the scoring guide that the College Board uses for this style of essay.  It is linked up here.

You will need to write the essay in either blue or black ink.  Lined paper will be provided for you.  You may not use any notes, outlines or materials existing outside of the contents of your brain to compose the essay.

And for those of you who haven't done so, I need your blog addresses emailed to me ASAP. I am compiling them and will be sharing a link with you for the page with the addresses in the next day or so.

For homework tonight, write a reflection on the test. How was it? Were there types of questions you found hard or easy? Was it what you expected? better? worse? Now that you've seen one, what will you do to prepare for the next test?
