Review Study Sessions Will Commence Tuesday

As with previous years, AP Lang will have study sessions available during specific lunch periods, during early release time, and after school. These study sessions give you the opportunity to read more passages, practice close reading skills, review terminology, and check out more prompts. In all honesty, the more that you see, practice, and ratiocinate will pay dividends in your confidence on the exam. Plus, you will have the opportunity to earn tally points, which will translate into the top 37 students receiving extra credit.

For the next week and a half, AP Lang & AP Lit will be sharing the time, so be aware that I will be rotating between the 2 classes.

I have a handout with all the details for you, but here are the highlights for your calendar:

Lunch sessions will center around the AP Lang flashcards and will occur during third lunch periods from now on (first lunch on May 1 due to a one-day switch).

Early release time study session will occur on May 3 & May 10. While I will be at a meeting, this will be student-led with prompt practices and lit cards.

After school sessions will have a MC passage, poetry prompt, prose prompt, free response prompt, lit term cards, and AP Lang cards.

AP Lang Cram will be May 15 from 2:30-5:30. You obviously don't have to stay for all 3 hours, but it will be an opportunity to have several rounds of MC, prompts, and lit card review. Technically, I can stay later if need be. This is a chance for a group study session before you go home.

******Every session will feature different passages and prompts, so you will not see the same passage twice. All passages (unless we run out) will be actual AP prompts.******
