AP American History Summer Assignment
- You will need to pick up a text in B254 (Ms. Pattillo’s Room) for the summer
-
Your summer reading assignment will be to read the first 14 chapters in the textbook
-
After reading and studying each chapter you are to go online to the following website and take a practice chapter test.
http://college.hmco.com/history/us/kennedy/am_pageant/12e/students
This website may not follow exactly your text—the one you are taking home is the 11th edition instead of the 12th edition which you will use for class.
So, the chapters may not match exactly, but they should be very close.
-
Click on ACE TESTS and take the appropriate chapter test—one for each chapter.
-
Then email to dpattillo2003@yahoo.com
-
After finishing all fourteen, go to http://geocities.com/dmoitoza/American.htm and click on Practice Tests and take Unit 1 – Colonial Era and Unit II – A Quarter Century of Revolution. You will not have to do the essays that are on the website.
-
Print out the two unit tests to bring to school for the first day.
-
Click on the geocities site and look at the AP Review site – there’s lots of stuff there to help you in your endeavor to do well in AP American History.
When you return from your summer holiday, I will review a few of the topics; we’ll take a test and begin with Chapter 15.
-
When you submit your tests from the website, please make sure I get your name and the chapter number.
-
Sign into: www.colegeboard.com/splash/
-
Click on the link FOR STUDENTS; click on college board “tests” and specifically AP; then click on “Subject Tests” and go to US History
-
At the college board website you will find many ideas to help you study as we complete this course
All assignments, except the two unit tests are to be done by August 15, 2008. The two unit tests will need to be copied after completion and brought to class on the first day of school.
AP US History students need to purchase a study guide for AP US History. Barron's makes one and that is fine but whatever you choose (Barron's, Princeton Review, Cliff's Notes) please make sure that it is written after 2006.
