AP Psychology

Sorry everyone to miss you two days in a row. Monday, my twin girl was sick and last night I had to take my 17 1/2 year old dog to the vet to be put to sleep. I have to tell my kids in the morning. 

Lesson- Please complete the following assignment on Perception Properties (the ability to organize the information sensed and interpreted in the brain.) You will be in groups of 4-5 and can use 1 chrome book (juniors, please assist - or phone) and textbooks to answer a series of questions. 
Perception Lesson. On the calendar or under activities in unit 3 for AP Psychology on my website. 

When done, take the unit practice test at the end of your current readings with a partner. Check your answers with the teachers additions. This will help me solidify the areas needing the most attention for Wed.

If there is still time, work on study guides or corrections. Unit 4 test on Friday.

Check your grade online and let me know if there are any errors. Grades will be submitted tomorrow and I will email progress reports home. 

Thanks for your understanding. 

US History-

Please complete the Political Cartoon Activity depicting Attitudes towards immigrants. In groups of three, (each person needs there own sheet) rotate through the political cartoons and answer the corresponding questions. In the blank box for an image, create an original title for the cartoon. Pay attention to the cartoon letters.

Example-
 
Title- The Great Fear
End Caption - Problem Solved
Depictions- Uncle Sam (United States) Chinese and Irish Immigrant 
Message- Irish and Chinese coming over for RR work and eating away at the US (culture, jobs, etc.) 
Problem Solved- Meant to be sarcastic, the Chinese (maybe viewed as the worst enemy, or represents a higher # of immigrant problems/people) will consume the US. Have FUN!

-Afterwards, turn in cartoons and continue with Men Who Built America, please tell the sub where you left off. 

-Be good!
