The End of Summer Approaches

The end of summer is approaching. 

Let’s imagine that you are enrolled in AP Language at Helena High next year or know someone who is. You might want to visithttp://classroom.quixoticpedagogue.org/ap-language/summer-reading or suggest that they do. 🙂

There are some great, fascinating books there, and I’d be happy to answer questions you might have.

Summer Reading Update

If any of the AP Language students for 2010-11 happen by the site, I’d appreciate it if you let other students know about the summer reading assignment. I’m not sure everyone heard about it.

I hope everyone is having a great summer thus far.
