Mrs. Rodriguez says... even BETTER video Reviews!

These are super fun (with John Green)!

Crash Course in US History

There are 11 videos rights now, and the most recent mentions OUR FAVORITE PERSON (Henry Clay!)--and covers through the War of 1812.

I would DEFINITELY recommend watching them as a form of review (and entertainment : ) of the early parts of American History.

Happy watching!

Mrs. Rodriguez says... video reviews?

Hi all!

Someone sent me the link to this site with free video test prep.

The APUSH section isn't complete yet (the latest lesson is on the Progressives) and, of those I watched, is a fairly dry offering (hint: just read the transcripts!).

Nevertheless, I like to share resources in case you can make use of them and I will say that, as a review, the content is pretty good!

I feel like we could do better... hmm...

Mrs. Rodriguez says... Practice!

Mrs. Rodriguez says... MARK YOUR CALENDARS!

I will be holding a full-length practice APUSH exam 

in the Lecture Hall on 

SATURDAY, APRIL 27th.  

We will take a vote in class on whether to have a morning (8:00-12:30) or an afternoon session (1:00-5:30) a little closer to the date.

We'll go through the released exam from last year just as though it were the real thing--your only opportunity to experience the marathon timing before the actual test.  Afterwards, we'll go over all of the answers and I'll give a cram-style review session.

There will be cookies! :)

It is not mandatory that you attend--but unless you are physically unable to come I STRONGLY encourage everyone to participate.  

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!!! : )
