Thursday

Please make a section of your notebook/folder for AP Practice. Put your m/c exam that we took 1st semester in it and add materials as we review.

For our practices leading up to the AP exam, I will be keeping track of your m/c scores on paper. On May 8, I will enter the average of your practice scores as a major grade for the six weeks. There will be opportunities to improve your average-- more about that later.
