One Day More

One more day to AP Lit glory
One more day to scores of five
Tomorrow is the testing day
Tomorrow we'll discover what the college board has in store
One multiple choice
Three more prompts
One day more

Hopefully, you figured out the allusion above. If not, then I suggest you listen to the original song and become inspired to do your best on tomorrow's AP Lit exam. (Yes, I know it's not a revolution that will cause table leaders to sigh, but we can still have gusto and fervently attack those prompts!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otZKdoHs06g

In any and all circumstances, you are ready to take the AP Lit exam and its multiple choice, poetry texts, prose passages, and free response prompts. While I know some of you are attached to your texts (Catcher in the Rye, Call of the Wild, The Great Gatsby, A Doll's House), don't forget to review a couple more just in case. We have had the pleasure to read The Awakening, Grendel, King Lear, The Metamorphosis, The Cherry Orchard, Frankenstein, and The Importance of Being Earnest. I would add my darling Heathcliff to the mix, but we have yet to finish his story.

Breakfast will be available at 6:50 a.m. for our testers, toast will be at 7:15, and I will escort you to the front of the school at 7:20. Don't forget your pencils, pens, erasers, snacks, layers, and umbrellas (we're not talking Noah building ships in the parking lot, but rain is expected for the majority of the day). And, it will be the last chance to vote on the AP Lit shoes tomorrow!

It has been such a pleasure to work with all of you this year. I love talking about books, and I'm glad to find 33 of you that do too!
