Break time!

When we get back we'll have only 14 classes before the AP exam....I can't believe how close we are....

For now, rest up. Enjoy your week off. Give your brain a break (it'll do plenty of work when we're back). Go out with your friends and enjoy the nice weather. Play outside. Be outside or with real people more than you're on social networking sites.

And in the midst of all that, don't forget your take home exam! As I said in class, the test category is 35% of your final grade--and this will definitely be our biggest test grade before May 10th (and maybe the only one!) That means if you get a 0, the best grade you can earn (until the next test) is a 65! Which means it'll be nearly impossible for your class to raise their average and meet our goal!

If you lost your test you can find it under our classroom assignments and resources, entitled, "April Break Take Home Test." No excuses!

Want extra credit on your take home test? I'll give you +2 points if you look up the 2006 AP problem (regarding a paired T-Test) and write down the ENTIRE correct response, and another +2 if you add information about how this was scored! (I need super detail; if it look lazy, no extra credit).

See you all Monday after vacation! We all need this break, I think....but I'll also miss you guys!

And of course, email with any questions...
