It is imperative that you review all information below both at the beginning of the year and again closer toward the test, including the exam information links so you have an understanding of all components of the exam (multiple choice and three written essay questions). Due dates for AP-specific assignments will be included in the main classroom calendar. And the main thing to remember... you can do it! AP Literature is simply about enjoying reading and then analyzing the heck out of it!
In addition to the full class policies and "The Year's Plans," AP students will have additional assignment requirements as part of their English 12 grade. These assignments can be done in your AP Test Prep courses and/or as homework. I'm available for questions and feedback via email/phone/video calls for all assignments.
(Due dates are also in the regular Classroom Calendar.)
Instructional videos assigned in CollegeBoard
Progress Checks assigned in Collegeboard
Quarterly projects assigned by Ms. Tucker - turn in via email
To engage with the videos and progress checks, you must first join the CollegeBoard AP Classroom for this class. To do so, first create a CollegeBoard account if you do not already have one and then use the URL and code at right. (If you were in an AP class last year, it is your same login/account as before.)
AP students can also expect more rigorous grading standards when it comes to essays and other written products, in which the AP exam rubric will be used in grading AP student essays. (See below for link to AP rubrics.)
The below can help guide you in considering how your class grade reflects potential performance on the AP exam in May.
