<p>AP Euro: read a 15 pg speech given by historian Carl Becker and write a 500 word paper</p>

<p>not too bad</p>

<p>Thank God this year I only have to read/annotate 1984. Last summer for junior year I had an insane amount of work for each class, which I managed to cram in the last two days of summer break (as usual).</p>

<p>Im a rising sophomore and i have to write 3 essays, fill out 2 maps, and complete 3 packets for AP Euro.

<p>Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using CC</p>

<p>I have to read Zeitoun by dave eggers and the merchant of Venice by Shakespeare and wrote a comparative analysis about the issue of identity and the criticisms that both ethers and Shakespeare have of society. </p>

<p>Zeitoun is about a man living in post- Katrina new Orleans seems pretty interesting. </p>

<p>HATED ANTHEM
I don’t care much for lord of the flies
Oedipus was the hardest thing I had ever read (then again I was a freshmen since my teacher was crazy)</p>

<p>English: Read & annotate “The Glass Castle.”</p>

<p>Math: 30+ page math packet (arguably another book)</p>

<p>AP Psych was going to have an assignment, but it was dropped for some reason.</p>

<p>I liked Anthem. Except for him using “We” “They” “Them” “us” instead of “I” “you” “that”. It seemed to be really political though.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>… you’re joking, right?? are you talking about AP?</p>

<p>For AP English Literature, I have to read Our Town, Man’s Search for Meaning, Exploring Happiness: From Aristotle to Brain Science (only first 58 pages), and Unwind by Neal Shusterman. I also have to read a book of my choice from a list, from which I picked Slaughterhouse-Five.</p>

<p>For AP Spanish Language, I have to read El Burlador de Sevilla and do a character analysis of one of the characters in the story.</p>

<p>I have to read two novels and take notes on them…
and one of the books is the 6th Harry Potter book ROFL.</p>

<p>Not complaining there~</p>

<p>For my APs, I don’t have to do any summer reading. I’m taking probably ~11 AP exams this year, but I’m self-studying most of them. My school curriculum is so limited.</p>

<p>^^^Not joking, AP Envi-sci is kind of a joke at my school. This is literally the assignment:</p>

<p>"Text: The Cartoon Guide to the Environment
Authors: Larry Gonick & Alice Outwater</p>

<p>1) Read the book.
2) Color in *THREE sketches/illustrations/diagrams per chapter.
3) Provide margin notes explaining why each sketch/illustration/diagram was chosen."</p>

<p>Read twice:
Great Expectations
Macbeth
Of Mice and Men (short)
Ovid’s Metamorphosis</p>

<p>Prepare for history assignments in September on the British trenches in WW1 and teh War at Sea, both WWs, by reading and researching the topics further.</p>

<p>Copy up all science notes from the last two months into good revision notes for exams in the fall.</p>

<p>Study a years worth of maths so I can move onto the Additional GCSE next year.</p>

<p>6 weeks for all of this :(</p>

<p>AP Chem: 12 page packet
Honors Pre-Cal: 5 page packet
IB English: Read All the Pretty Horse, Write about passages I liked

<p>AP English: “Mayor of Casterbridge,” “Importance of Being Earnest,” and “Great Expectations.”</p>

<p>AP US History: “Lyddie,” and 3 chapters from “A History of Women in America.”</p>

<p>You guys have some crazy teachers…</p>

<p>For Lit, we just have to read the book Mountains Beyond Mountains by Tracy Kidder. But we’re gonna have like an AP prompt on the first day or some such nonsense. We also have an assignment for Physics, but I haven’t looked at it yet.</p>
