Midterm Exams

Art Survey
Your exam covers Chapters 5-13. You should be able to search for the chapter in the box in the upper right, and Chapters 12-13 are now linked, as well. The guidelines for your study guide are below:
  • Create a SLIDES outline to be used on the midterm exam
  • The presentation should at least 3-4 slides on each chapter (5 through 13)
  • Base the content on mine, which is already a summary
  • DO NOT copy and paste - reduce/summarize and type it all yourself
  • Share with me as “lastname-midterm"
  • Include major periods, artists, styles and works
  • You do not have to include pictures - should concentrate on text
  • The more you include, the better you’ll do on the exam

English II
Your exam will include everything we have studied this term, including the Anglo-Saxon Period, the Middle Ages, and the Renaissance. Your complete study guide is online. You may copy/paste into a new document and insert your notes, or use it as the basis for your note cards. Either way, you need to start studying ASAP.

English IV
Your exam will be in two parts: a 50-term vocabulary test, and an argument essay. I have provided you with both the terms and the potential prompts, three of which will appear on the midterm. If you prepare for four of the six prompts, then you are assured to see one on the exam.

English IV This week, we are working on the "problem" portion of your research paper. Your topic should be a typical problem that is solved by a person in your profession. For example, if I were writing this about being a high school English teacher, I could write about the problem of plagiarism . I would research the problem thoroughly and present statistics and examples. Next week , we will write the "solution" portion of the paper. Until you fully understand the problem (whatever it is), you cannot hope to solve it. In fact, most of your education will consist of these two sides of every issues - the existence and prevalence of various "problems" and the methods and strategie...

Senior End-of-Year Schedule!

Seniors, the end is near, and there are a few assignments left to schedule. Here is a list of everything due in the next two weeks: Career Update - a one-page addendum to your research paper, updating your plans for college and beyond. Be sure to include what you originally planned and if that's changed. Whether plans have changed or not, please explain why and what steps you've taken towards reaching your goal -- i.e. where you've decided to attend and what major you've declared. This is due WEDNESDAY 4/24. Letter to Future Self - this is an OPTIONAL assignment, but I encourage you to take it seriously. As discussed in class, this letter will be sent to you in about five years. Think about what you'd like to tell yourself five years from now. For example, maybe it would be interesting to reflect on your plans at the time, what values you held dear, what you wanted to remember. In addition, you might think about your current likes/dislikes related to pop cultur...
