AP US History: TEST FRIDAY

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

I know you guys are concerned about your upcoming test and I know you are very concerned about the speed in which we covered the first four chapters. If you have been reading most of the information should not be new. If you have not been reading, this is your first issue. You must read!

I am linking a PDF document, a copy of what you will be given in class, for you to use as a guide. This is a guide ONLY, not a strict promise of testing material. When reviewing my notes, these were the items that “stuck out” to me. It is a topic list to help guide you, simply identifying each item with one sentence will not be enough to guarantee your success. Remember, history is much easier to learn and understand when you view the concepts as pieces of a much larger puzzle. Focus on the big picture.

Hope this helps…

Students, I’m finding it difficult to keep track of questions so I would like to ask that you put them all in the same place. If you have a question about class, want to discuss something extraordinary in the world, or just want to talk about school stuff with each other then click to the forum. Even non-registered users should be able to post topics and reply to topics. (Be aware it does require simple math to post. It’s just so the site can be certain you are human.) Put questions in the appropriate place please.

Again, you can find the forum in the page links or click here.
