Since many of you are still struggling to keep up with the notes and the assignments, we need to do some reflecting. So, for this weeks blog, you must answer ALL of the following questions:
1. What does AP mean? That is, what makes a class an AP class? How does an AP class compare to a regular level class?
2. What are the benefits of being in an AP class vs. a regular class?
3. You must give me a valid argument for why you should continue to be in AP Physics. You must use supporting statements and evidence to support your argument. What are you willing to do to stay in AP Physics? What do you need to change going forward to be more successful in this class? Why should I recommend that you be allowed to take the AP Physics test in May?
Remember, the work load will not decrease. Starting December 1st, there will only be makeup work for missed assignments. In order to get credit for the makeup assignment it must be completed within ONE WEEK of the missed assignment. There will be NO MORE EXTRA CREDIT. Test corrections are due by December 5th and they must be fully explained to receive half of your points back. If you are absent, you are expected to check edmodo for any work you may have missed. You should be comfortable with the routine and the expectations of this class, so this safety net should no longer be needed. If you have questions, you need to ask me BEFORE the due date. Remember, if you have trouble posting to the blog website, you can email your responses to physicswithego@gmail.com or respond on edmodo.com. In order to receive full credit, you must post an original comment and reply to at least one other comment. Happy Blogging!
