APUSH - The Impact of the Car on American History

After viewing the video in class and perhaps again on your own, compose a developed body paragraph using evidence from the video to explain the initial and then lasting impact that the automobile has had on American history in the both 20th and now the early 21st centuries. Length of the paragraph should be no fewer than 8 sentences following the TS, CD, CM, CM, CD, CM, CM, CS format and word count should be no less than 150 words.

Semester 1 Reflection - Juniors

Now that the first semester is over, I need to have you look back and assess the following things for both AP classes: 1) what were your strengths and weaknesses? 2) what were the strengths and weaknesses of the teacher? 3) what changes that were made over the course of the first semester had the best and least impact on you? 4) what changes would you suggest for the future to make the class run more smoothly and productively? As before, I really do need to hear from you ALL on this so that I can improve not only the delivery of the content, but also how I do things in the class so that you, the student, can get the most out of it. Your comments on the Quarter 1 reflection were very helpful, and I hope that I was responsive to the suggestions that you had made and that things improved. Now, please look back again because, like Kramer above, I implore you to help me help you!

English 10 Semester 1 Reflection

Now that the first semester is over, I want you to look back and provide me with a substantial (really think about it and write a lot) reflection on what you see as A) the strengths and weaknesses of the class, B) the strengths and weaknesses of the teacher, and C) the strengths and weaknesses of your own performance. Then, I want you to D) suggest at least TWO changes that you would make, one for me to think about doing, and one for you to do to make this new semester better for yourself. So, that is FOUR (A, B, C, and D) things I want to know. Remember, I am looking for quality and quantity in your response, so make it "good" and make it "long" (but not essay-long!).
