AP LANG EXAM DAY: We did it?!! Their turn!

 

  

Good luck to your students on exam day!

We should feel so good about the help we gave them  I was so corny yesterday.  At the end of the review I had 15 minutes left and said, "Let me see my other notes."  It said, "Encourage them."  I thought that was a little crazy that I had to WRITE THAT DOWN.  On the other page I had written several cliche, "go get them comments." I told them I felt like Donald Trump having a notecard of what to say to children when he met with them.  I asked them if I should just read them the list.  They laughed pretty hard at, "Leave it on the field."  Then when I went off script and said I was proud of them I started to cry. I am a dork. I told a couple girls before they left that I am an odd person. One of them said, "I think that's one of things that is best about you." Noice.

Anyway, this morning I was dropping off treats for them at the district office.  A girl shows up when I'm about to go in and says, "Hey did I leave my Chromebook in your room?" It's 7:35.  Ummmmmmm. I gave her my school keys (which I haven't done in 12 years) to go to the nearby high school and look in my room. She found it, left my keys locked in my room.  I had to borrow an admin's keys to get in at like 7:55 (school starts at 8:00). I'm guessing that was a tough situation for her!! It made me nervous. Anyway--things happen.

I have attached my silly notes.  I told the proctor to tell them to leave it all on the field for me. Absolutely nerdy.

I hope it goes well for all of our kids! I wrote this during first block while freshmen work on researching for the final MLA research essay (very 11th hour)! Anyway, my mind is kind of with those seniors at the district office. This English 9 class rocks.
