Wednesday, March 25 and Thursday, March 26 Class Activities

Hey, there!

I hope everyone's doing well. For those of you that could make it, thanks for participating in the Zoom call. Fourth period was pretty quiet (maybe it was the timing), and fifth period was pretty lively. It was great to check in with you in any case!

WEDNESDAY CLASS ACTIVITIES: 
1. Log in to the Zoom call to go over the notorious Abigal Adams Rhetorical Analysis prompt together:

4th period - 9:00 a.m. - 9:45 a.m.
5th period - 10:45 a.m. - 10:45 a.m.

Meeting ID: 395 323 4703

2. Tune in to the College Board's Wednesday AP Lang Session on YouTube from 12:00 - 12:45 p.m. Pacific Time by clicking here.

The topic is "English Language: Identifying the Rhetorical Situation in a Pre-Twentieth Century Text."


I received an e-mail from the College Board confirming that it can be watched at a later date if you have a scheduling conflict.

3. No journal entry for today.

4. After attending the Zoom call, please read through the College Board's published, actual student responses to the Abigail Adams Rhetorical Analysis prompt, as well as their Questions and Answers document explaining in detail what makes for a higher score and higher quality response to this prompt. (See these links under Class Handouts on the right-hand sidebar.)

THURSDAY CLASS ACTIVITIES: 
1. Tune in to the College Board's Thursday AP Lang Session on YouTube from 12:00 - 12:45 p.m. Pacific Time by clicking here.

The topic is "Analyzing How Word Choice Reflects a Writer’s Understanding of Audience." This one should also be accessible after the live date.  

Note: no Zoom call on Friday, but check this website one last time before Spring Break.
