check out all this stuff i have to do, pretty crazy, thought i would give in detail so maybe someone could give a few tips or comments...

 

 

 

You assignments for today are to

 

1. plan and create a Survival Manual for APWH pamphlet,

2. create a list of the Top 10 Turning Points in World History, and

3. write a “day before the test” letter for next years students.

 

The Survival Manuals I will pass out to next years students at the beginning of the year so they may refer to them throughout the year.

 

The Top 10 Turning Points will be compiled to create a class list. Your class will be the first to create such a list.

 

The letters will be given to students next year the day before the AP exam. So try to give them something that you think would have helped you the day before.

 

 

 

 

Pamphlet assignment:

By yourself OR with A partner, create a Survival Manual for APWH for next year’s classes. Include the following topics:

 

Helpful hints on how to be successful

What to expect from the course and instructor

How to read the textbook efficiently

Study groups- setting one up, making it work

Preparing for the exam

 

Whatever other information you would like to include. ALSO- include

illustrations as appropriate.

 

Yes- you can use humor- but please take this seriously and produce

something that is useful.

 

The person(s) who create the best pamphlet will earn extra credit. I will use their pamphlet to photocopy and distribute to students the first day of school next year and also at Back-to-School Night.

crazy huh guys

 

whatever fag is behind this is pretty a nnoying.. 1post fags >.>

Haha, i was done my first year of university on april 23. No more homework for me and 4 month summer vacation...mmmm.

 

Ok, but in all seriousness, a teacher would not assign that much stuff in a day. Im quite sure you've had ample time to work on each assignment. Teachers are not unreasonable (well...except in FAK3R's case). Assuming you've left this all to the last day to do i have 2 words of advice: You're fucked. Now, assuming you actually did start the work early and are simply posting this all to somehow "wow" the people of this forum...you are only going to get flamed. Words of advice: Dont try to impress people on this forum. You will get pissed on and laughed at.

 

Another thought...the time it took you to type that crap, you could have done something productive instead.

so much to read. dident have time to read evrything... :s Lol but i guess nice 0wn shit.

I'm sorry about your homework problems. There's a simple solution that's way shorter:

 

1. Say, "I don't need this bullshit."

 

2. Flush it down the toilet.

so much to read. dident have time to read evrything... :s Lol but i guess nice 0wn shit.

 

thats because u can't read

Turn on The History Channel, and take notes on the shows that come on. 90-95% of all the history reports I wrote in school came from it almost verbatim, and I passed AP World History with a B+.

 

 

 

Just get ready to write a lot of shit about Hitler.

well thats what u get for taking an AP course, its called advanced placement for a reason, because you get homework.

 

most AP courses rnt really worth it anyways unless you really do enjoy learning the information seeing as AP credit is only accepted to get you out of introductory college courses. then again im just bitter because i cant take AP psych next year :O

if so , tough luck for you :rofl:

 

oH yeah ,this is definately not the place to come and whine about it .

 

Come back when you have a dilemma like .... My 17 yr old hot ass Gf has these hot naked pics of her and I don't know what to do with them ....

 

 

Ok ? Got it ???????

My 8 yr old hot ass Gf has these hot naked pics of her and I don't know what to do with them ....
My 8 yr old hot ass Gf has these hot naked pics of her and I don't know what to do with them ....

 

email them to [email protected] =P

My 8 yr old hot ass Gf has these hot naked pics of her and I don't know what to do with them ....

 

that slut's pics have been passed around more times than a diced poodle at a chinese buffet !

Dee & Desi :naughtyd: :fawkd:
whatever fag is behind this is pretty a nnoying.. 1post fags >.>

I don't like you.

I don't like you.

 

i dont care.

whatever fag is behind this is pretty a nnoying.. 1post fags >.>
