Since many of you are still struggling to keep up with the notes and the assignments, we need to do some reflecting. So, for this weeks blog, you must answer ALL of the following questions:
1. What does PreAP mean? That is, what makes a class PreAP? How does a PreAP class compare to a regular level class?
2. What are the benefits of being in a PreAP class vs. a regular class?
3. You must give me a valid argument for why you should continue to be in a PreAP class. You must use supporting statements. What are you willing to do to stay in a PreAP class? What do you need to change going forward to be more successful?
Remember, the work load will not decrease. Starting December 1st, there will only be makeup work for missed assignments. In order to get credit for the makeup assignment it must be completed within ONE WEEK of the missed assignment. There is NO MORE EXTRA CREDIT after December 1st. The last day for test corrections will be December 3rd. If you are absent, you are expected to check edmodo for any work you may have missed. You should know and be comfortable with the routine and the expectations of this class by now, so this safety net should no longer be needed. If you do not give me a good argument for your remaining in PreAP, you will be moved to a regular level class OR you will remain in my class, but be re-classified as a regular level physics student and the work you will receive will be that of a regular physics class. If you have questions, you need to ask me BEFORE the due date. Remember, if you have trouble posting to the blog website, you can email your responses to physicswithego@gmail.com or respond on edmodo.com. In order to receive full credit, you must post an original comment and reply to at least one other comment. Happy Blogging!
