Welcome
to our AP Government class blog! Our activities on the blog will be in the
green box located below. Read the activity and follow its instructions. When
you are ready to answer the questions required, scroll down to the bottom of
the blog page and click on add comment. Type your answers in the box that pops
up and at the end of your answers, include your name. You MUST have your name
in the comments box or you will NOT receive credit for your work. This is just
like putting your name on your paper! ALSO, you must click anonymous from the
drop down boxes listed below the comments box, since the comments are submitted
to me for review and not published. If you leave the box for Google ID checked,
your answers will be lost in space for all eternity (until you redo it!). If
you have ANY questions, please let me know! Tip: If you have any doubts or
fears about losing your work, do as I do, and copy and paste your answers into
a Word document, Notepad, e-mail to yourself, etc., so you have an electronic
copy as backup. I will be posting to the class blog on a weekly basis from now
on, so stay tuned and check back frequently!
Be reminded that you lose
participation points when you are caught on YouTube, Facebook, and similar
sites. You may listen to music on a site like www.grooveshark.com that does NOT have
videos. If music starts to interfere with your ability to complete your work or
stay on task, you will lose that privilege.
Activity:
AP Government –Here are the objectives for today: I can search study guide sites online to prepare for tests and quizzes in AP Government. I can find definitions, multiple choice, and FRQ sample questions and answers online to study for tests and quizzes. Tasks: click on the following link to go to a link with definitions for Chapter 7 – Public Opinion. Review the terms from our chapter. When you are done, do google searches for Ch. 1 American Government, Ch. 2 The Constitution, Ch. 3 Federalism, Ch. 9 Political Parties, Ch. 10 Elections and Campaigns, Ch. 11 Interest Groups, and Ch. 12 The Media. Quizlet is an excellent source for reviewing vocab. Also, If you take many of the questions or topics from your tests and quizzes, you may do a Google search and find similar questions AND answers to help you study for your tests and quizzes. There is a LOT of material out there. Use your tests and quizzes to enter search topics online today. Report in the comments section of the class blog some of the websites that have been helpful to you today that you found!
