Hey folks,

We are starting our Distance Learning Review for the APWH Exam. This 4 week review will give you all the tools and content necessary to PASS THE AP EXAM! A couple things to focus on:

  • AP Exam will be 45 mins long, no Multiple Choice, only FRQs.
  • You will be taking the AP Exam @ home on laptop, tablet, or phone. I suggest laptop if you have one because you will be typing your answer.
  • Edpuzzle lectures will be posted Monday-Friday (I will keep them shorter than 30 minutes long) - You must watch them by 11:45pm each night that they are due for a grade.
  • You will take notes on the Edpuzzle.
  • All assignments will be due to Edsby @ 11:45pm (including flashcards, One Pagers, and MyAP questions).
  • We will be going through Units 1-7. I will be making a One-Pager for each unit with the most heavily tested terms from that unit.
  • REMEMBER T-D-A = Term/Definition/Application
  • Please stuck with me and work hard. You can still get college credit!
