Today in AP Lit, we finished our group task by completing our analysis on the 5 topics we were given. Our group finished strong with our themes and claims on “spirituality and religion” from the novel The Color Purple. 

Today in AP Lit, we took our finals or “EQT”. The test was based upon the novel The Color Purple.  The test was a bit of a challenge, but at least it’s over. Tomorrow we will go over the test in class. Hopefully, I can get some clarity on where I went wrong on the test.

Today in AP Lit, we were put into groups to come with an analysis for certain topics from the novel The Color Purple.  Working with groups today was a bit of a challenge because each member had different ideas, which we later had to compromise, but overall it was a good exercise for the class today.

Today in AP Lit, we were assigned to finished the book “ The Color Purple ” and also the questions we were given. Also we were critiqued on our essay we previously written on The Color Purple. I made a 75 on my essay which translates to a 5 on the AP Exam. So, I’m kinda excited about the progression I’ve made so far this school year.

Today in AP Lit, we practiced the elimination skill again today in class. We were given 3 questions to answer. 5 people were the chosen to be answer choices A-E. Each student who was picked read they’re answer out loud, to see which answer was completely right. It was a fun and good learning experience and I hope we get to do it more often in class.

Today in AP Lit, we were assigned to read pages 182-199 of the color purple.

Today in AP LIT, we picked back up the color purple to read more of the novel. The novel has taking an unexpected turn. Corrine thinks that Nettie and Samuel are messing around with each other, she also thinks that Olivia and Adam are their children. Further along in the book, Nettie and Celie finds out that Pa isn’t really their father. Nettie decides she wants to confront Pa about the rumor and to also find out who he really is.

Today I toured the campus of Alabama A&M. It was a great experience getting to meet some of the professors.

Today in AP Lit, we were put into groups and assigned two chapters to read, during the first half of class. We were instructed to come up with analysis for both chapters. Working in a groups today went well for my group. We were all on the same page and all pitched in to help with the assignment.

Today in AP Lit, we took another multiple choice quiz to test our test taking skills. Today I did good with eliminating my answer choices. I got 8/10 correct. Each day I better my skills on test taking, to put them to use for the AP Exam in May.

Today in AP Lit, we tested our test taking skills again. This time we read a poem and answered the questions. When I used the elimination method for multiple choice, I found myself with an awesome grade. I made a 100% on my pop quiz today because I used the elimination method. This method proves to be very effective for me.

Absent Today.

Today in AP Lit, we read more of the color purple and also tested our test taking skills. We were giving 5 questions to begin with in a short amount of time, to see how many we could get right. I ended up getting 2/5 correct which showed me where I was in test taking strategies. I would like better my test taking skills, so that I’ll be ready for the AP Exam in May.
