Important Note to Students

The HAMLIT assignment page is a convenience but not something to be dependent on. When possible, homework and reading assignments will be posted here, but you are expected to complete all assignments that are announced in class on time, regardless of whether they are posted online. If you are absent, or do not remember if there is an assignment, you will need to contact another member of class to verify what the assignment is. Neither I nor the site are responsible for your failure to complete this responsibility.

Clarification

Clarification: Your project for your group book is an individual, unique project despite my misleading title "Group Book Project" which would more accurately be phrased as "(Groupbook) Project" or "Individual project on the book you read together with your group."

This will be completed and uploaded through Turnitin.

Due Tuesday and beyond

Due Tuesday-

Make sure you and your reading group have decided upon a reasonable first "chunk" of your book to discuss on Tuesday. My recommendation would be between 40-60 pages, so you should be spending a decent amount of time reading this weekend.

Information about your book project which will be due on June 10th is available here.

Here is the slideshow with the book options if you still need it.

SBAC Practice Test

Please use the link here to take you to an SBAC practice test sign in.

On the first screen, just click on the green sign in button and ignore everything else.

Then click on the 11th grade which should take you to the practice test portal.

You will want to practice the ELA CAT sample* test and the ELA PT sample* test. Remember, this will not be scored but will give you and indication of the questions types and expectations.

*Don't click on the "training test". That's something else.

Test Prep Homework!

APUSH Test is done! Whooohoooo!!!!!! You are half way there!

Please read the information below carefully, so you know what is required for this weekend for AP Lang and what is just a really good idea.

Required:

Please read ALL three prompts from the exam available here.

Consider previewing the slideshow below that we will talk about next week in class. This might help focus you for the next part of the assignment.

THEN You will choose EITHER the synthesis topic OR the argument topic to write on from the prompts you just read. Your essay should be a 40 minute timed "in class" essay. If you choose the synthesis prompt, your reading time should not be included in your 40 minutes of writing time.


A Really Good Idea:

Preview this slideshow we will talk about next week.
