AP Long Form: Your Ticket to Class

Welcome back and kudos to those who turned in their AP Long Form. Don't worry if you didn't do it perfectly; we will go into each literary term in depth as the course progresses. The purpose of the summer assignment was to measure your motivation as a student. If a student doesn't have the motivation to complete a summer assignment, then he or she does not have the self discipline needed to succeed in an Advanced Placement class.

Those who failed to do the assignment: I've submitted the drop forms to Mr. Grijalva. He can program about four people into period 4 before it is full. That will still leave about 13 people hanging. Hopefully, he can make my period 1 regular English class into an honors class. If your schedule does not accomodate either of those classes, you may have to take a regular American Literature class with another teacher.

Our textbooks for this class are The Bedford Reader and Vocabulary Workshop Level F. Hopefully, we will get them within the next few days.

TONIGHT'S HOMEWORK: Complete the self introduction and be prepared to read it in class tomorrow.
