Random Junk

A-Peeps:

Just a reminder that everything has been pushed back a day. VQ&D and the MC exam will be on Tuesday. The FRQ will be on Wednesday. We will take either first or third lunch so as not to interrupt your writing. I'll let you know soon.

Possible FRQ topics:
  • Comparing/contrasting absolute monarchs
  • English Civil War(s)
  • Analyzing the successes and failures of states attempting to centralize
  • Whatever I can think of...
Either way, you should get a list of five possible prompts on Monday. You'll have two days to peruse them, write possible thesis statements and consider how to best write the essay. On test day, you'll have three of those same prompts to choose from. You'll write on one of them. Capiche?

Have a fun yet safe Homecoming weekend!

Ten Days

A-Peeps:

A veritable drought of blogging! Oh my! I can't believe that my OCD allowed me to not post on this site for ten days... Anywho-

Start thinking about the following ideas for the upcoming FRQ. You know which one I am leaning towards:
  1. English Civil War(s)
  2. Comparing and/or contrasting absolute monarchs
Also start thinking about T-shirts. I'd like to order them before Halloween. Then we can order another one in the spring if you'd like! Vote in the poll to the right for designs.
