APGEO: Important updates (same as email)

Dear AP Geo students and parents,

It's hard to believe, but there are only TWO WEEKS until the AP Human Geography exam!  Here is a list of everything we need to accomplish before the exam:

***Requirements - print these off so you can check off each one as you complete them:***

-If at any point during your review you come across a point you don't understand, see me or email me to ask for help!
-Bring in your check made out to Voyager Academy for $85 to cover the cost of the test.
-This weekend: complete any FRQ corrections you haven't finished; do corrections for the two take-home multiple choice tests (due no later than Fri, 5/6).  As always, your corrections should define and explain the relevant vocabulary and concepts in the questions you missed.
-In-class FRQ on an urban geography topic (Tues, 5/3)
-Urban geography vocab quiz (Weds, 5/4) + corrections
-Finish and turn in all one-page unit study guides (7 total, all due no later than Fri, 5/6)
-Corrections on the spring break FRQs (all due no later than Thurs, 5/12)
-Final exam in the course (a shortened practice AP exam; FRQs will be from either Ag. Geo, Econ. Geo, Pol. Geo, or Urban Geo): Tues, 5/10
-AP EXAM: FRIDAY, MAY 13

Optional but recommended: Finish reading through a test prep book on your own OR re-read a review packet from each unit.

Work really, really hard in the next two weeks so that you can earn a grade on the test that reflects the fantastic effort you've put in this year.  After the exam, we'll take a break from homework for at least a week.

Good luck!  Please let me know if you have any questions.
-Mr. M
