Summer Homework

<p>What summer homework, if any, do you have this summer? My summer begins this Friday at 12:25...and so does my summer homework. </p>

<p>For AP Gov/Econ, I have to read The Prince by Machiavelli and write a review on it. I also have to take notes from our textbook for a few chapters, be prepared for a test on the first day, and write three responses from another reader. I also have to choose one liberal book and one conservative and write reviews for those. </p>

<p>For AP Lit, it's fairly straight forward - read Wuthering Heights and Great Expectations and write seventeen responses. </p>

<p>So what are you facing this summer?</p>

<p>It seems like you have a lot to do!</p>

<p>I’m not quite sure, even though my summer starts tomorrow. I know I have to read 2 books for AP English Lit and write about them. I need to do a “Math Packet” for AP Stats. I need to learn lots of Bio concepts for AP Bio. That’s it. Maybe prepare for some tests on the first day of school, but I’m not sure yet.</p>

<p>AP Lit: Read the Road and a book called How to Read Literature Like a Professor. No responses, just reading.
AP Environmental: Pick up two books off a reading list the teacher has provided and do to little journal entrys about what we are reading. This should be easy though, I already own one of the books- Into the Wild.<br>
AP Studio: Create ideas for artworks.
AP Gov or AP Psych: I’m not sure which one I’m going to take, becuase AP Gov may be a scheduling conflict, but either way they both have a ton of stuff to do for summer work. :confused:
I think AP Psych even involves picking up a review book or something and doing outlining. </p>

<p>And I don’t have any other summer work for any other classes (or atleast that I know of…)</p>

<p>I read The Prince in AP Lang. Fun (insert sarcasm here). </p>

<p>I only have AP Lit HW. We have to read Jane Eyre, answer 156 questions on it, memorize vocab and give an example of each. That’s all worth 400 points. Then we have a test on the vocab and book that’s worth 300 points. -_-</p>

<p>AP Lang: Scarlet Letter & Essay
APUSH: Read and take notes, make a poster, flashcards
AP Calc AB: Like 300 questions</p>

<p>YEA</p>

<p>Is AP summer homework for a future AP class or for an AP class that you’ve already taken?</p>

<p>It’s for a future AP.</p>

<p>I read Great Expectations this year in Honors English 9… weird.</p>

<p>So far only Honors English 10. Read these two books and take Cornell notes.</p>

<p>So far only have to finish Great Expectations and read Of Mice and Men, but we still have a while before the end of the year so will probably get quite a lot more.</p>

<p>Honors Sophomore LA: Read Fahrenheit 451 and a couple chapters of Mythology.</p>

<p>AP Environmental Science: None.</p>

<p>AP World: You be a critic and write a through review of a movie relating to world history. We have a list to choose from. I am probably doing Hotel Rwanda.</p>

<p>AP Chemistry: Read the first two chapters of Chemistry: The Central Science. Do the exercises of the first three chapters of The Ultimate Chemical Equations Handbook. Do corresponding webassigns.</p>

<p>^ we had to write reviews on Hotel Rwanda last year in RS. An amazing, but horrible film.
Just out of interest, what other films could you choose from?</p>

<p>Calculus AB: Read chapter one of our textbook (just a review of algebra/precalculus functions) and complete a review packet of about 125 relatively straightforward questions.</p>

<p>US History: Read the first 3 chapters, complete a packet consisting of about 100 to 150 questions for each of the three chapters. Afterwards, write a DBQ.</p>

<p>Biology: Read 4 chapters and complete about 20 study questions for each chapter.</p>

<p>None for English Language or Computer Science.</p>

<p>^Have you taken regular computer science before?</p>

<p>All that I know about so far is to read a list of about 9 classics for Lit, but knowing my school I’ll get a few more assignments in the mail ridiculously close to when school starts.</p>

<p>Read Scarlet Letter, Hiroshima, A Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, and Ceremony and journal about all of them.</p>

<p>Kill me.</p>

<p>Oh and that’s just for AP Lang. I don’t even know what I’ll get for AP Calc AB and APUSH.</p>

<p>Rough day…and reading for Calc??! thats awful…makes my hw look like nothing haha</p>

<p>Bio: 5 chapters in text, notes, questions
Physics C: basically same as bio
Lit: Midnight’s Children (annotate, etc), read weekly articles</p>

<p>History: Read a book and write a three page paper about how my understanding of history has changed.</p>

<p>English: Read a book and write a three page paper about the protagonist.</p>

<p>Could be worse</p>

<p>Read Bruiser (what the heck is that?) and flowers for Algernon. Do honors Pre-Calc summer review packet.
This has been worse. The summer after sixth grade I had to read at least four very unappealing books and write a very long paper on robots.
-------------------------------------------If it is to be, it is up to me…</p>

<p>Nothing.</p>

<p>My school doesn’t assign homework on breaks.
