NOTE: those of you who did not do the flashcards correctly - come see me so we can talk about a fair grade

2010-2011 APUSH WELCOME!

hello! Those of you who are working on the summer assignment I wanted to update you on a couple things brought to my attention by classmates:
1. not ALL of the terms on the list are in the chapter indicated. Do not stress if you cannot find them all. You CAN skip a couple here and there
2. number 3 on the assignment says "review attached outlines" - you can skip this because I never gave you the outlines
3. you DO NOT need to answer the questions in essay format. In fact, you will not have to turn them in at all. However, we will be having a discussion on them so writing something down (perhaps a couple of sentences) would be helpful since you can use notes and you will be graded on participation

email me with ANY questions! See you soon :)
