Mrs. Rodriguez says... DOWNLOAD THIS APP!

AP US History Exam Prep - Powered by Brainscape
is FREE for a limited time only...

I was sent this alert this morning and downloaded the app myself to play with--I think it's GREAT.

It's essentially a huge flashcard set, divided by units--but the flashcards are of good quality and you rank each one based on how well you knew the answer.  It will then show you cards that you didn't know more often and cards that you did know less often as you learn them better.

For free--I HIGHLY recommend it!  Looks like an excellent study tool... and just think, you could study APUSH ANYWHERE you go!!! : )

Mrs. Rodriguez says... Corrections!

Corrections for the Progressive/Imperialism test are open TODAY (Wednesday) after school, THURSDAY before school, and MONDAY before and after school.

Make plans to come in--the time is VERY limited!
