UPDATE FOR APRIL
Hello! The days of grades have returned. We have been given permission to move to an online school model for at least the next month. So assignments are now graded (whether or not you are taking the AP test) and will continue to be assigned, going forward. You were all on that train for the last two weeks. Now just pay attention to DEADLINES. I suggest using an online or paper calendar, as you will be getting assignments from ALL classes beginning next week.

As you can see on the side, I am still posting content that will help you be successful in completing Task 2. Not all links will be useful to all students, since your topics vary widely. I will try to vary the content medium so it is not always reading.

We also now have "office hours." This means you can reasonably expect email responses within one day of emailing a teacher (on weekdays, of course). For me, in order to manage the grading portion (applies more to the other classes), office hours are:
Mon-Fri   8-11am Email only / 1:30-3:30 email or phone calls (the number is 971-915-1175, but it is computer to phone, so be patient if I have to call you back) / 3:30-4:30 Email only

Phone calls are only on a true need-basis such as you got stuck and cannot figure out how to complete a task, a technical problem we both need to see in real time to fix, or barriers to completing work that we might need to discuss. You can always email first, and I will call if needed later.

Deadline reminders:
Outline and 2 annotated bib entries were due LAST week. Full Bib should be done at this point.
Completed rough draft is due on Thursday (April 2). I will email out protocol for peer edits by Thursday.
Peer Edits complete by next Tuesday (April 7).

Carry on! Keep your distance, but carry on! :)

Hello! If you are having trouble logging in to databases from home, Mrs. Beazizo sent out these PASSWORDS to make sure you have access. 

A few of you have yet to actually send me your pictures or google docs marked up (2 BEST). Please do so asap, via email. They were due last Thurs/Fri.

Your rough, but completed draft is due the Thursday after the break (April 2).  We will exchanged drafts online through googledocs sharing from the 2nd through the 6th. You will be asked to name the people you commented on in a classwide, shared document. You should comment on at least 3, no more than 5. Remember to consult the RUBRIC to focus your comments for each classmate. Our goal is to hit the HIGH boxes.

Keep checking the blog for updates. I am working on adding resources today and tomorrow.

Your tentative thesis is DUE tomorrow, March 17^th. Submit your thesis via email to Mrs. Evans by 4pm to be considered “on-time.” This is one day later than the original due date. I will provide feedback on grammar only. You should use your classmates, via shared google docs, to get additional feedback.

You should be marking up articles (on paper or online—your choice, just make sure you are actually marking them up, selecting quotes AND creating commentary/connections between ideas). I will ask for your 2 best examples to be submitted (take pics with your phone and email them to me) by Friday, March 20.

There will be no assignments during the originally scheduled break, but since the AP Board has not, at this time, postponed any AP coursework or tests, we will continue to make progress as if we were in building. Therefore, your argumentative paper OUTLINE is due March 30^th, along with your Initial Bibliography (completely and properly formatted for MLA or APA). Again, submit this via email.

Your 2000 word completed rough draft will be due on Thursday, April 2^nd. Submit it to my email, regardless of what our circumstances are. I will start a group googledoc to handle peer edits at that time, if needed.

Further assignments are to be determined. Plan as if you are giving presentations in mid-April.
