Vocab Quiz, Catch Up on HW

**Please be sure to get any straggling AP registration forms turned in!**

Two Responsibilities for Tonight:

1.) STUDY! We will start class tomorrow with our chapter 12 vocab quiz! 20 terms! (List below).
  • If you were absent you are still doing the vocab quiz--so you must your the glossary in chapter 12 of your book, or get a classmate's notes, because we covered some of the vocab today!
2.) If you are currently missing any homework you can make it up for tomorrow--after tomorrow I will not accept any late homework!
  • This includes if you need to score/take notes on your free response scoring!
    • If you only completed the question and did not score it you earned a 0!
  • See the blog posts below for information about past homework assignments
