We are finally here! The finish line is in our sight! Now
is NOT the time to give up or throw in the towel! This is the time for you to sprint your way through the finish line! Complete
what you have set out to do...
This quarter
will be devoted to a
comprehensive review for the AP Exam.
This review should be a significant help to those of you who plan to take
the exam. For those of you who are
not planning to take the exam, this should still be a productive way to end the
year since you will probably retake this course in college.
We have covered hundreds of
terms and concepts, so I feel that it is necessary to do an extensive review to
bring this course together. We
will do this by taking several review quizzes, practicing on AP Practice Exams,
and by doing a fourth quarter project related to the material we have covered.
It will be important during
the review period to develop consistent study habits with a concentration on
general terms since the AP Exam will focus mostly on these
types of concepts rather than very specific ones.
You will also need to focus on the chapters or units where
you had weaknesses during the year.
Most of you had at least one or two problem units. I suggest you review these units on
your own in addition to our class review.
**Below I have posted several power
points, in addition to various links to assist you in the review process. Use them! They are valuable resources.
