Circle: One good moment from your break.

FRQ Activity moved to January 17.  Tuesday January 17th we will be doing a technical writing workshop with Ms. Manchester.  We will be going over released Free-response questions and learning the process behind technical writing.

Cumulative Review Test: Units 1-6 Friday January 6th we will be taking a cumulative review over all the Units we have covered so far this year.  I would like you to study using the AP Test Review book I handed out the other week. Please take the time to read the section up through Learning and take the practice tests at the end of each section in the book.  This grade will only be used to replace any grades that are lower in the gradebook.  This review test will not be entered as a stand alone grade.

Note cards: Below is a list of terms that you will need to know for the AP Psych Exam.  These are due  (1/25).  Each note card should have the term on the front.  Then, on the back you need to A) define the term and B) show application of the term.  This application can sometimes best be expressed as a personal example.  You can also draw the application of the term if you so desire.
