 Tips

Mr. Redlin visited us today to remind us about paying our exam fees which are due Thursday, March 28th. The first Thursday after spring break.

Exam day: Thursday, May 9. 8 a.m. You must be at the school by 7:40. I will have bacon and tofurkey, he he he. And strong strong coffee! Also, I'll make sure we have snacks to serve as you have a break between the multiple choice section of the exam and the essays. I suggested you bring in a cute character to sit on your desk. (I'd better check with AP protocol to ensure it's possible! If not, we'll make a display on the wall the day before so you have something to look at and make you laugh and relax as you work your way through the passages). It's all about keeping the brain calm. 

If you were absent today, please ask me for the AP exam form as you need to order an exam in order to write it. The cost is $89.00 for one exam. There are discounts for those students taking more than one AP exam. 

Today, we spent the class preparing for our in-class essay on our Feb. novel. I'll dig up some student essays and either post them here or print them for you.
