S2 - DAY 61/62: APRIL 13/14 - AP REVIEW UNIT 1 & ARGUMENTATIVE ESSAY

Hi! I hope you all had a PHENOMENAL weekend!

DON'T FORGET TO COMPLETE ATTENDANCE ON MONDAY,TUESDAY,THURSDAY, AND FRIDAY!

In case you missed it:

EAGLE UPDATE VIDEO LINK:


TODAY WE WILL:

FYI:  The AP College Board is posting Review Videos for each course on YouTube.  Here is the link for our class YouTube APGOPO Review Video Playlist.  There are around 10,000 students watching these videos and maintaining the rigor of prepping for a college test! ...Do not put yourself at a disadvantage! YOU CAN DO IT!...EVEN UNDER QUARANTINE :)

I am following the lessons for the review and creating Edpuzzle.  I understand it is time consuming since each video is around 45 minutes but if you want to be BEST prepared for the test, complete ALL of the Edpuzzles.  All will be graded and EXTRA CREDIT PRACTICE will be given.

1. If you did not do so last week:  JOIN Ms. Ryan's Edpuzzle Class here:  
2.  Last week you were to COMPLETE: 
3. CREATE your own "paper" cheat sheet for the 9 Foundational Documents and SEND ME ONE BIG PICTURE.  It is highly recommended that you have a "cheat sheet" ready  for each document that you can use on the day of the test!  Don't over do it! Use a half sheet of paper for each document and write down bullet points in your own words - do not copy large quotes!  If you are watching the Edpuzzle Review Videos, just take the notes from the lessons.  Here are a couple of nice resources that you can use to review the documents and take notes from:
  • APGOPO REQUIRED DOCUMENTS - Each document is grouped under a BIG IDEA of the course.  The actual documents, audio, and video analysis are attached for each one.
  • Required Docs CRAM SHEET  -  This is in very vague language but includes nice "short" quotes and phrases that are most cited
  • Foundational Documents Quick Reference Guide  - Gives nice main points summary
  • WOW! I FOUND ANOTHER AMAZING SOURCE:  https://app.studyedge.com/authentication/guest/icivics - This is an online AP Gov Course that was made FREE! 
    • Watch this 2 minute instruction video:  Study Edge Instructions Video
    •  The best part is the videos and pdf outlines of each of the 9 Foundational Documents and the 15 SCOTUS cases. Watch the videos and if you can't print out the PDF outlines use them for your notes!
    • Remember the steps to sign in:
      • Find EAST LEYDEN HIGH SCHOOL FRANKLIN PARK,IL
      • Your First Name
      • Your Last Name
      • ACCESS CODE: Ryan1
Looking ahead...
In the next lesson, you will have a video to watch of me explaining the new format of the Argument FRQ.  If you are watching the Edpuzzle videos it will all sound familiar.  Then, you will complete a PRACTICE Argument FRQ that will be included in your grades.
