I cannot believe we are almost done! In the last month we have finished Frankenstein and moved on to Fifth Business. We have been very busy preparing for our AP test which is very soon. In class we have done multiple choice practices, terms practice, and took a quiz over lenses and eras.
Fifth Business was okay, but quite a bit confusing at times. Once again, I am thankful for class time to discuss the novel and understand it at another level. The changing of names threw me off the most!
Working on the timed open and closed prompts has served as a big help. Also, getting graded on them is really nice and helpful so I can figure out what I need to focus on to improve. I am ready to be done!
Hey Hunter,
ReplyDeleteI think there is more we have covered in the last month than you give us credit for, at least in detail. There is a bunch more that you could elaborate upon here, how exactly the prompts helped you, what you thought of the multiple choice practice, how you are feeling about the AP exam in general. Also, there is more to be said I believe in Fifth Business, while true, we are writing about it in the next couple of days there has got to be more about it than what you wrote. I think there is far more you could do to elaborate upon this, and that would be beneficial for this post, at a minimum in my opinion.

Hi Hunter,
ReplyDeleteYou did a good job summarizing what we did in class over the last month, but you might want to go into a bit more detail about specific things that we did that might help you on the exam. You could also try making connections between different things that we've done in class. Like how learning about the literary eras and critical lenses might help you to analyze a piece of literature....or something along those lines. I totally agree with you about being ready to be done though!!
Hi Hunter,
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with you how fast everything seems to be moving. Especially that we only have a month left of school- how crazy! The only thing I would add to this post is to comment on the Jungian criticism we covered one day in class. I found it really interesting, and also helpful when reviewing Fifth Business. Overall, nice job on this and good luck on the ap!
