Many of my AP Lang Ss after the AP exam! It is amazing that 50 students took the AP Lang exam @McGuffeyHS last week. I am so proud of these determined young people. Although it will be hard to say goodbye in a couple weeks, I am excited to see where their futures take them! #Mc3G

@diminor1 @McGuffeyHS I’ve only attended NMSI AP trainings so far, but I hope to make it to an LTF training soon!

So proud of my AP Lang Ss! This year has been far from normal, yet almost every single S took the AP Lang exam this morning! Their effort & commitment during these challenging times inspires me every day. I was happy to see my pd. 12 “on the other side” of the exam! @McGuffeyHS

My Advanced English 10 students did a great job analyzing the purpose of Cassius’s rhetorical choices in Act I, scene 2 of ‘Julius Caesar!’ @padlet enabled class collaboration that will assist students in the process of composing analytical paragraphs. @McGuffeyHS

@diminor1 @NMSI So proud! 💕

Although I provided feedback, each group did an excellent job recalling & applying key strategies on their own! Their success with these tasks was incredibly impressive, especially since their year has been far from normal

Shoutout to my AP Lang Ss! In preparation for the Mock Exam, they used @NMSI’s “5 step” process to dissect free response prompts. Ss worked with 2-3 other students to break down 1 prompt within a collaborative Google Doc & shared their work w/ the rest of the class. @McGuffeyHS

@MrsEngler1 @ScholasticEd @PaigeCizmek @McGuffey_MS Aww this makes me so happy! I’m actually working through 10th grade lessons focused on these same concepts right now :) Thank you @PaigeCizmek for teaching these terms! They are essential concepts for AP English Lang 11!

@DeniseLeigh11 @McGuffeyHS I loved it too and was not at all surprised that my students thought of your class as a great source of evidence for the creativity prompt! 👍🏻

[Rebecca Willner @Wertzr412]

@DeniseLeigh11 @McGuffeyHS Please excuse my “an” typo by the way! :)

[Rebecca Willner @Wertzr412]

@DeniseLeigh11 @McGuffeyHS My AP Lang Ss JUST referenced your sketch notes as an evidence of how creativity is already embedded within classes at McG :)(They are writing in response to an AP prompt asking them to argue whether their school district should develop & offer a creativity class.)
