May 9th through 20th

Wow--the AP exam is over, so back to work! I hope you all did well---the exam results will be made available in July.
In the meanwhile, I would encourage students who did not take the exam to consider going to Chemeketa and taking the CLEP exam sometime in may. You need to take Western Civilization II.
On Tuesday, students begin their primary document based final exam. This is a fabulous chance for you to learn as you take a test as the exam covers all periods of the AP course. These is also a visual and written element to the final, so by the time we are done (Thursday), students will be ready to unwide with a film. In this case, we always show Dr. Zhivago. The second film, if we have time, will probably be the Mission. Both are fabulous and I have super viewing guides and historical slideshows to support.

The final week of AP Euro will be spend doing our presentations. This is my favorite part, and students have been given a list of fabulous cultural literacy topics. Ask to see the list and maybe you can help your student decide.
