WEEK OF 10/11 - 10/15

MONDAY

Today we will begin studying the multiple choice aspect of the AP exam. I will explain the format, we will review the types of questions, and approaches to answering them. Then we will read An Essay in Aesthetics by Roger Fry from Great Books vol 1. For homework you will choose 2 Interpretive Question to write a half page each for our discussion.


THURSDAY

I will be absent today. You will take a multiple choice practice quiz. First, come up with answers on your own - no discussion. Then break up into groups of 3 each, and compare your answers, trying to determine what the correct answer is. Then as a whole group, see what you think is the correct answers. Keep all scores, not for a grade but so that I can see your thought process. For homework, our next writing assignment based on the Bedfor Reader will be Chapter 4: Comparison and Contrast. Read any of the selections to get an idea, and then write your own, to be due next Monday.
