Harbor High AP Language and Composition |
Check in:Hello all! Hope you are doing well in these odd times. I wanted to send a message out to just briefly check in with you. Firstly, in order to help me best serve your needs as we move forward in the coming weeks, please follow the following link and respond to the survey: Survey Optional Practice:I will not be assigning any mandatory work for this week, but I do want to offer the option of practice for those of you looking for productive ways of occupying your time this week. Below, I have linked a practice AP Test. This test reflects the updated test. Be warned, I have read reviews that suggest that this test is likely harder than the actual AP test will be, so do not be disheartened if it appears that you are less prepared than you had previously assumed. It is still great practice, however! I will not be collecting this, so feel free to record your answers in the way that best suits you. You could print the test and circle answers directly on your paper, follow along on your device while recording answers on a separate paper, or any other method you prefer. Answers are listed at the bottom of the document along with brief explanations. If you are feeling extra productive, give the essays a try, as well! Practice Test What to expect in the coming weeks:This situation is evolving one step at a time, and this week will be providing a great break to take a step back and collect our thoughts and make necessary adjustments to our lives. Regardless of when we return to school physically, we will continue our learning starting next week. I will be posting lessons and assignments through google classroom twice a week and be available via video conferencing during our normal class times. I will also be checking my email regularly to provide support. I will be doing my best to remain flexible in the coming weeks while still ensuring that we are all continuing to learn and grow as thoughtful human beings. I also want to urge you (as I am sure you have already been urged plenty) to practice social distancing as much as possible. It is a great relief that you all are not among the age groups most affected by this virus, but please keep in mind that social distancing is not only about keeping ourselves protected from the virus, but also making sure that we do not spread it to people who may be more at risk while also relieving stress on hospitals. I know that something as simple as staying indoors as much as possible may not seem like enough to make a change, but in this instance it really can. As individuals, it may not always seem like we can do much to make the world a better and safer place, but in this instance we most certainly can! To get a better idea of why social distancing is so important right now, check out this Washington Post article: Article Feel free to email me if you have any questions. Have a great week and wash your hands! Mr. Churilla Bonus: Sushi and Goblin Practicing Social Isolation
